its that time again!!! the only competition that matters in canadian soccer

https://twitter.com/CanadaSoccerEN/status/1019704433234636801?s=19

ottawa actually won this fixture last year (before getting battered 4-0 in the return leg), and is, i hope, ramping up to swap leagues from USL to the new Canadian Premier League any moment now, so they have it all to play for, and toronto is trying to fix a disastrous season by sending an absolutely awful team out, so it should be a good'un

Our strategy of only fielding 15 guys and not having a coach is not paying dividends here.

And that's that for a couple weeks.

Philadelphia 1 - 0 Orlando
Chicago 4 - 0 Louisville
Houston 4 - 2 Kansas City
LAFC 2 - 1 Portland

Draw is tomorrow for who hosts the next game and who gets priority when hosting the final.

When it comes to Canada

Ottawa 0 - 1 Toronto
Montreal 1 - 0 Vancouver

But that's just the first leg.
Next leg is next Wednesday.

God bless.

So, some news today.
LAFC used too many foreign players last night and Portland have filed a protest to US Soccer.

https://twitter.com/NipunChopra7/status/1019981186825904128

This could end up with LAFC forfeiting last night's match and Portland going through instead.

This also means the draw has been postponed until they reach a decision.

AND apparently a Portland player called Dio the n-word during the match.

If this ^^^ is true (my stream was super lovely last night and I couldn’t tell what was going on for the last 10 minutes beyond time wasting), then I believe that this vvv

Should be overruled and not only should LA go through, but Portland should be fined and said player should be given a multi-game ban in all competition.

Any idea who said it?

TwoStepBoog

No idea who, but it sounds like both Portland and LAFC's FOs are working on finding out what happened.

Also, appears the extra LAFC international player was Kaye and now it comes down to whether or not he has a green card.

quote:

"After a thorough review of the Portland Timbers' official protest, it has been determined that the inclusion of additional foreign players was a result of a good faith misunderstanding among U.S. Soccer, Major League Soccer and Los Angeles Football Club. Each organization involved has agreed to determine an improved process to ensure this will not happen again. In recognition of this fact, the Timbers have gracefully withdrawn their protest."
Guess that settles it.

edit; i have learned this is because it is just the jumboscreen feed

also, kind of hoping LAFC win the whole thing because I feel they would have the best run at CCL out of the final four

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.

Scoring first and then conceding an away goal a minute later is a fine start down that road!
