I am shocked, SHOCKED that a Mexican team has been eliminated by a non-Mexican team. Well done, l'Impact.

Just watched the highlights, that was a great goal, and amazing timing. Looked like a pretty good sized crowd too.

My voice is hoarse as hell. The acoustics are really bad at Olympic Stadium and it can sound like a mausoleum even with a crowd of 40k, but when Porter scored the place loving exploded. I may have hugged complete strangers.

Hell yes Impact. When DC wins 3-0 on a rainy cold Wednesday in the District we will party as one.

There won't be a thousand people. It's gonna be so awesome.

Ask me about Game Pass: the Best Deal in Gaming!
Didn't DC perform terribly last game? Do they need 3-0 to advance? Lastly why are MLS teams so poo poo in this tournament. Besides the fact it's off season, do teams just not really care that much about this tournament and put on reserves?

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

Yes they did, and yes they need to win by three goals.

As for the reasons:

1) off-season/preseason
2) most teams don't really care about the CCL for some reason
3) low salary cap (also domestic player quota?) means that MLS teams don't really have enough talented players to go toe-to-toe with MX teams. Usually an MLS team will have a first 11 that can make a game of it but when subs come out or an injury crisis happens or whatever, things get ugly.

Did the ref just throw Ben Olsen out of the game? I can't understand Spanish.

edit: lol. apparently. CONCACAF refs, making MLS refs look good and competent.

edit2: This ref has lost the plot, both teams are chippy and aggressive, and Ala is just baiting DC to fight back. Literally nothing happened for the last 7 minutes of the half.

edit3: Univision loving sucks for replays.

SO mad. Raging toward an entire nation here. But Arrieta scored, so I am conflicted.

edit: oh my god gently caress concacaf. This ref is so happy to let everyone stand around, push one another, yell about a little bit. This is dreadful.

As good as Montreal was over their two games, DC was even worse. I'd hate to see what their pass completion rate was tonight. If they don't get their poo poo together, they could be looking at another 2013. Thank you Based Olsen.

It was pretty funny when the Ala guy got tackled into that pool next to Hamid's goal though. WTG DC.

Oh no, looks like the snow machine malfunctioned today and only made rain.

On one hand, another Aztecazo would be funny, but on the other hand I don't think I could handle the insufferable smugness of purple scum if it happened. gently caress this game I hope they both lose somehow.

As a fan of Club America I hope this doesn't happen, but with the CCL and Libertadores not being a priority to mexican teams, anything could happen.

Welp, America's too much of a team right now, and will probably win this whole poo poo (see: thread title). Also, Jeaustin Campos is a poo poo manager, and I'm counting the days till he fucks off.

Good luck to LDA and Herediano or whatever.

Herediano are beating America 3-0 with 10 minutes to go. There was an America player sent off but should have been 3 or 4 reds, the America players are kicking the poo poo out of Heredia and also being huge babies, like Chelsea players.

This owns so loving much

Here are the highlights

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl8cKfK_mPc

Check out around 1:50 to see the one and only red card, but in that play two America players should have been sent off, one for the tackle and the other one for kicking the mighty CL9 in the loving face.

Afterwards Bryan's lil bro Yendrick assisted Esteban "baldhawk" Ramirez for the first, then scored the second one. CL9 unfortunately couldn't score but he's a goddamned warrior who kept playing well after that brutal kick.

I'm still not counting out Club America. It's been a decade of dominance by Mexican clubs, so I'm going to wait until the final whistle on April 8 before I believe any other country can win the League.

Lagos went to the hospital after the match, apparently he fainted in the dressing rooms. His nose was broken but no concussion or anything.

The mighty CL9 can play for an hour with a broken nose, what a hero!

Also Heredia ultras threw rocks at the America bus. Ultras are criminals, who knew?
