Chivas USA Suffer Fourth Home Defeat

Chivas USA’s winning streak came to an end on Saturday when they suffered another home loss, this time Philadelphia Union, falling 1-0 in an ugly encounter at the HDC. At first look, this score line might suggest it was the same old story for The Goats at the Home Depot Center; however, it was anything […]

Late PK Miss Spells Loss for Rapids

I will be the first to admit that the first 30 minutes or so of the Colorado Rapids vs LA Galaxy match this past weekend were hard to watch. Dicks Sporting Goods Park was at capacity (plus some additional standing room tickets, in my understanding) and the atmosphere was electric, which made the gaping holes […]

Dallas Downed Early Against Vancouver

Vancouver came out like a team determined to put its recent defeat at the hands of Kansas City in the past. Dallas came out as a side hoping to set up another final 20 minutes of late-match drama. BC Place witnessed a match won in just 10 minutes of pressure from the home side. Vancouver’s […]

Weekend That Was – April 23

Another round of games passed by in this MLS season this weekend with some surprising results and noteworthy games. The biggest story line came out west in Portland, where Sporting KC’s perfect start to the season finally snapped with a 1-0 away loss to the Timbers. Of course the winning streak could not have lasted […]

Player of the Week Pontius Rewarded for Hard Work

DC United came into Sunday’s match against the New York Red Bulls as an underdog but four goals and 90 minutes later, they came out on the good side of a 4-1 thrashing of their I-95 rivals. Chris Pontius, the injured midfielder-turned-forward, put on a soccer clinic on the cold and rainy Sunday night at […]

Ching Rescues Point in Columbus

Just when it looked like the Dynamo were going to lose in Columbus after surrendering an early lead, captain Brian Ching earned a point for Houston with a late equalizer. Ching’s goal in the 81st minute was the final goal in a thrilling 2-2 draw between the Dynamo and Crew. Playing their fifth consecutive road […]

Sixth Straight Loss Leaves TFC Looking for Answers

“It’s just sad the way we conceded goals.” – Milos Kocic This is the type of start no one could have seen coming. Toronto FC lost their sixth straight game to start the season when the visiting Chicago Fire ran roughshod over the TFC defense, en route to a 3-2 road victory. The goals finally […]

Chicago Beats A Desperate Toronto

Chicago traveled north of the border once again this season, this time to face Toronto FC, in what some coined as a “must-win” for either side. Chicago, who’ve gone through two bye weeks in the first two months of the season, have been able to collect little momentum, and for many throughout the league the […]

Red Bulls Look for First Complete 90 Against Rival DC United

The New York Red Bulls, coming off a 2-2 draw with SJ, are looking to explode early against Atlantic Cup rival DC United. In three of New York’s six matches, they have scored within the first five minutes of play winning 2 and drawing the third. In the three games they have not scored early, […]

DC Looking Forward To New York After Montreal Draw

DC United failed once again to win two in a row, and this one hurt. The match ended 1-1. This was probably the best chance they had to win this season, and it ended in disappointment. I’m a huge Arsenal fan, and I’ll just throw this out there: DC United tying Montreal at home is […]

FC Dallas Hopes to Capitalize on Tired Vancouver Legs

Dallas finds itself pitted against a recently-defeated Whitecaps side on Saturday. Hyndman and company fortunately find themselves in a preferable situation, having a full week’s rest and time to travel prior to Saturday.  Vancouver, however, was routed by Kansas City (like all of KC’s opposition) Wednesday night and only has a three day respite ahead […]

Whitecaps Looking for Offensive Spark vs Dallas

The Whitecaps play their second match of the week as they look to rebound after a 3-1 midweek loss to Sporting Kansas City. After two straight 3-1 losses in addition to playing twice this week, Martin Rennie and the Whitecaps are looking to make some changes in order to find a spark in the final […]

Chivas USA Look to Finally Prove Themselves at Home

Chivas USA return to the Home Depot Center on Saturday night to face Philadelphia Union with a point to prove. After their recent two game road trip came to an end with maximum points, a home fixture is just what they needed. Six points from the two away trips to Portland and Toronto saw The […]

Can Rapids Figure Things Out as Galaxy Come to Town?

As a Rapids fan often involved in the Rapids’ fans’ chorus of “where is the Rapids’ media coverage!?” I should know better than to leave you guys hanging like I have. It hasn’t been deliberate. It’s more an issue of just not being able to figure out what is going on with this club. Two […]

Dynamo Look to Break Streak in Columbus

After playing their first Eastern Conference rival on Sunday, the Dynamo will make it two in one week as they take on the Columbus Crew. The Dynamo come off a storm shortened draw in Chicago 6 days ago and will get players back from injury and suspension. The Crew have been a thorn in Houston’s […]
