Columbus Crew won their home opener on Saturday. 2-0 over DC United. The game was a blast to be at.

Austin and Orlando both lost, but the other three MLS teams advance to the quarterfinal round. All three are on the same side of the bracket, with LA playing the Whitecaps.

No better way to elevate the national team than to have them play "meaningful" matches against El Salvador and Granada without a manager

The scrub round is over. USL enters round 2, then MLS rounds 3 and 4. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_U.S._Open_Cup#Bracket

Pittsburgh will enter in round 3, since their round 2 opponent, the Rochester Rhinos, have folded. They were the only sub-MLS team to ever win this thing, along with the subsequent champions league bid.

Heading into May






Concacaf Champions League 

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FvA5ucbaIAAZlnj?format=jpg&name=small

The semifinals conclude on May 2 with the second leg of the series. On the USA side LA hosts Philly following a 1-1 draw in the first leg. The other semifinal is Liga MX Lions and Tigers. The Final will straddle the next month change in late May, early June. 

US Open Cup 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_U.S._Open_Cup#Matches_2

There were two USL over MLS upsets in the previous round, with the San Jose Earthquakes losing to Monterey Bay, and Atlanta barfing one up against Memphis. The round of 32 will be played on May 9 and 10. The Sweet 16 will be played May 23-24.

Canadian Voyageurs Cup

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Canadian_Championship#Bracket

The MLS trio remains alive for the quarterfinal round, which will also be played on May 9-10. Montreal and Toronto play each other, so at least one will fall. The semifinal round will be May 23-25.

All the matches up to the WC are pretty much friendlies. With 48 teams qualifying will be a joke. 

At least in the past the gold cup was every 4 years and everyone really went for it. The competetion wasn't great talent-wise but it was fun and intense. Now its bring a B or C team so they can squeeze out 1 more US-Mexico match prior to the Confed cup.

Columbus Crew stomped Louden United 5-1 in the Open Cup this week. They play at the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in the round of 16 next.

Let's Go Crew!
