That Dempsey/Oba goal was magical.

Not sure how I feel about this. World Cup 2022 Final in Qatar is December 18th

You should feel like FIFA is one of the most corrupt organizations in the world.

I was just on a plane with the Impact while wearing my Sounders scarf, heh. A few of them said hello after seeing my scarf. After we landed and I got my luggage I wished them good luck against La Liga and got a cab.

[Oreth]

Its the most ridiculous thing ever... That whole organization needs a reshuffle!

[TummieGaruda]

It's pretty much a given, especially since we all know there was some serious bribing going on to have Qatar host the world cup. It's bad enough that the country has slave like labor conditions which makes the choice more controversial.

Minneapolis to get it's own MLS team, Open-air stadium in the planning stages

Man Ireland have been terrible in this first 45 minutes... Really need a big showing second half. Anything other than a draw and we are fucked for qualifications!

[Oreth]

Well we got the draw... Should have won in the end but glad with the point! COYBIG!

The Montreal Impact are going to the CONCACAF Champions League Finals

In 2014, the Impact were 9th in their conference, and 19th overall in the MLS season.

They won the Canadian Championship to get Canada's one berth in the Champion's League.

And now they're going to the god damn CL finals.

Only one other team from MLS has ever made it to the finals (Real Salt Lake I think). A CL win will send them off to the Club World Cup.

[Judai]

DC and LA won it but that was before the expansion to league format several years ago

[Oreth]

Fantastic game tonight with Whitecaps and Columbus. Only a few mins left hopefully the Whitecaps get a goal!

Weee massive win today for Villa FA Cup Final here we come!

Weee massive win today for Villa FA Cup Final here we come!

Not to mention guaranteed Europa qualification, regardless of the cup outcome with Arsenal (still, you guys better beat Arsenal).

Speaking of, next weekend's Chelsea v Arsenal game has probably the highest stakes of any game all season; since Arsenal's the only title challenger left at this point. But since Wegner has never beaten Mourinho, that's a mighty tall order. And even then, Chelsea look unstoppable at this point even with a loss to Arsenal. But a win against Arsenal virtually seals it.

Not to mention Southampton v Spurs, Burnley v Leicester...Some big shit going on next weekend!

[Serif]

Heading to Italy from June 17th through 27th

Would there be any football going on then?

I am lazy and don't like googling so I thought I would ask you guys.

[Oreth]

Well that was rough to watch! Clinical and Dominating performance by Arsenal. That performance pretty much sums up Villas season! Great achievement to get to the final but when half the team doesn't turn up or fight back im not sure what the point is! That performance looked more like a team under Lambert than Sherwood! Hopefully next season brings some better football to watch!

Would people frown if I became a Revs bandwagon fan? I haven't really consistently watched soccer lately, but I would like to. I used to watch soccer all the time with my Grandpa (we're Bulgarian). I remember watching Bulgaria get to the semi finals in 94.

Well, to start, separate out the general "MLS Sucks" mindset, and then after that, I think you're fine (until we fite).

Too bad the SEAvNE game has already been played this year or I'd say "Let's go watch dude."

The wife is wanting to watch more Revs games too, just to get more exposure to the game.

[Jefe]

Dat Champions doe, holly shit what a game.

Now this is just comical:

$29 million FIFA film rakes in $609. That's six-hundred-nine dollars.
