Montreal Meets Philly for First Time

The Union come into this one with a renewed outlook on the season, riding back-to-back MLS league wins, with a new head coach at the helm. The Impact ended their three-game losing skid last weekend when they came from behind to be the Columbus Clew in unquie fashion, 2-1. Montreal is currently sitting in 8th place in the […]

Dallas Trades For de Guzman Ahead of Colorado Clash

The front office in Frisco’s search for a striker in the transfer window has ultimately landed a defensive central midfielder. It’s a bit of a tangent from the original plot, but it’s one trade that seems to make reasonable sense.   Let us make the case for this trade. Dallas lacks a pivot man that […]

Whitecaps Look to Bounce Back in Chicago

The Whitecaps have a chance to prove to how mentally strong they are as they face the Chicago Fire at Toyota Park on Saturday. They must prove they can bounce back after their most heartbreaking loss in the MLS this season losing at the death to TFC. A victory against the Fire would also split […]

New England Faces “Should Win” Test from Visiting Toronto

It is probably time to reign in the optimism in New England. I am having a blast watching this Revolution team’s 2012 season unfold. I grew up around New England sports fans, though, and I learned more about vitriol for all teams from New York than I did about good luck streaks. This is a […]

Union Fall to SKC in USOC Semis, Turn Sights Toward Montreal

The Union will have a quick turnaround from their 2-0 defeat to Sporting Kansas City Wednesday night, and will face Montreal on Saturday at PPL Park. It was an emotional loss for the Union and their supporters. Despite playing the more attractive and attacking soccer, the Union fell victim to a header from Jacob Peterson […]

Toronto FC Ship Julian de Guzman to FC Dallas

What a week it’s been for Toronto FC. The week got underway with a 3-0 loss at the hands of the Philadelphia Union. Just a day later, forward Joao Plata left the team to go play back home in Ecuador with LCD Quito. Nick Soolsma followed him out the door on Wednesday. Wednesday night saw the […]

DC United Adds New Investors

On Tuesday afternoon, DC United made probably one of the biggest announcements in club history. For the first time since 2007, the Black and Red are adding new investors to the club in hopes of boosting financial and spending power for the future. This move has excited club officials as well as fans. So who […]

Catching Up with the Union and Previewing Tonight’s USOC Semifinal

The Philadelphia Union continue to find new life (and goals) under new manager John Hackworth. A July 4th fixture at the Galaxy saw the Union grab the lead just before halftime on a sublime backheel from Jack McInerney, which was reminiscent of Danny Welbeck’s winner for England against Sweden in the Euros. They were lucky to […]

Whitecaps Hit the Road to Face Rivals TFC

The Whitecaps continue their road trip, after a quick stopover in Vancouver, in the Eastern Time zone as they face their Canadian rivals TFC.  While it is a chance to pick up more points on the road against the worst team in the MLS, the Caps will want to make up for the loss earlier […]

Derby Day at BMO Field as TFC Host Whitecaps

Toronto FC welcome the surging Vancouver Whitecaps to BMO Field Wednesday as their grueling stretch nears its end. The Reds have had quite the busy schedule as of late, playing ten games in just five weeks since the international break. They have had both a weekend and a midweek game each of the past four weeks, […]

DC United Women Win Eastern Conference

Since D.C. United has a break this weekend, I had the opportunity to travel up to Germantown, MD to watch D.C. United Women take on the Dayton Dutch Lions. It was the Olympic send-off match for United defender Becky Sauerbrunn and the last home match of the regular season. Three second half goals, along with […]

Coach Kreis and RSL Right the Ship

It’s been awhile since I wrote here, and there are a lot of things to shout about regarding Real Salt Lake; some happy shouts, some frustrated growls. But I’m going to take Coach Kreis’s advice to his players: “We don’t get to up or too low. We’re trying to stay on an even keel,” said […]

Nightmare Streaks Continue for Red Bulls at New England

The New York Red Bulls kept a streak alive when they played the New England Revolution this past Sunday. It is not a favorable streak for the New York team, as they have not won 18 consecutive matches on the turf of Gillette Stadium (0-13-5). Without no less than six starters in Thierry Henry, Rafa […]

Revs Defend New England, Show Promise in Victory Over New York

So many storylines worth discussing emerged from New England’s jaunty 2-0 victory over the team that plays in New Jersey. While the Red Sox couldn’t stop the Yankees Sunday night in Fenway, the Revs probably missed an opportunity to blow out the New York Red Bulls in Gillette. From the starting lineups to the final […]

Seattle Back to Winning Ways

Before the game Saturday night at CenturyLink Field, the Sounders found themselves on the back of a 9 game winless streak, the longest in their history and were hoping they didn’t make it 10, when they hosted the Colorado Rapids. Out of a possible 27 points, Seattle had only managed to pick up 5, and […]
