The Montreal Impact (1-5-1) won the battle for the first 75 minutes of the game at FC Dallas. They looked like the far better squad, playing aggressive, creating chances and in search of their first MLS road victory. But playing better for the first 75 means nothing when you give up two goals in the final 15 minutes […]

It took about 82 minutes, but DC United was able to take the lead off a late Chris Pontius goal to go on to win 2-1 over the New England Revolution in Gillette Stadium. In what was widely considered to be a sloppy game, both teams had many chances to grab a second after two early […]

It was a virtual scene for scene replay of last Saturday’s loss to Columbus. Toronto controlled possession, created plenty of opportunities, but could not seem to buy a goal. They conceded very few chances at the back, but Chivas managed to convert on one of them and that lone goal was good enough to get […]

A lot has gone on since the Houston Dynamo last played a MLS match. The Dynamo have not played a competitive match since their 2-0 loss at Seattle on March 23rd. While there was no on field action for the Dynamo there was plenty of off field happenings. Midfielders Colin Clark and Adam Moffat were […]

I had a tough time coming up with a good, non-Google Translate translation of the headline (since everyone’s doing it). There’s something about playing a team with a mainly French website that rubs me the wrong way (probably similar to the type of feeling most foreign women get in Paris). Joking! Canadians are wonderful people, […]

April 14th, 2012. A must-win game for LA. I’ll let that settle into your brain for a second. The idea that the Galaxy would need to win a game in April would be laughable at the beginning of the season. Yet, here we are. 12 points behind the conference leaders Real Salt Lake and in-city rivals above […]

Chivas USA make the journey to Canada this weekend to take on a struggling Toronto FC side in what will be their final match of a two game road trip. Last weekend saw The Goats leave Portland with all three points in a hard fought game against the Timbers and a similar, if not improved, […]

Seattle heads home for what will be a key match against Western conference rivals, the Colorado Rapids. The Sounders will be hoping to bounce back from a tough 0-0 draw with DC United and get another three points at home, where they have seen a lot of success so far this season. The Rapids are heading to […]

The New York Red Bulls face off against the San Jose Earthquakes in a battle between two of MLS’s hottest teams. Both New York and San Jose are riding three game win streaks on the backs of their high-octane offense power. New York comes off a 4-1 victory on the road against the Columbus Crew […]

This afternoon, DC United will square off against another MLS original, the New England Revolution. United (1-2-2) will look to get three points on the road against a club that could be without a majority of their stars. After scoring just five goals in five matches, and earning just five points, there is a good […]

Five weeks into the 2012 season the New England Revolution have one more win than this week’s opponent, DC United. Our Revs also have one more loss than DCU, who has taken two ties. While both of DC’s ties were scoreless, they did explode against FC Dallas for four goals – and we couldn’t score […]

The San Jose Earthquakes are showing their pre-season promise. The team is now undefeated in their last three games and at top of the table. Last Saturday, the boys in black and blue crushed the Whitecaps by scoring 3 goals in 11 minutes, as they came back in the second half after giving up their […]

News out of New York’s practice today at Red Bull Arena, ahead of a major clash with San Jose, is not good. Already missing midfielder Teemu Tainio with a knee injury for 3-5 more weeks and striker Juan Agudelo with his knee problem another month, the Red Bulls could ill afford more problems around the […]

It’s almost surreal to think that it’s been a year since Total-MLS was born. Saturday will mark the one year anniversary of the site launching. There was a short hiatus in the fall because of my marriage (well worth it), but we’re now into our second season covering Major League Soccer. Total-MLS started as an […]

Until the 9th minute Thursday night most FC Dallas fans would’ve pinned Fabian Castillo to be the highlight of the match. Castillo ruptured a few Revolution ACL’s and MCL’s in the process, taking multiple cutting runs and knee bending turns through the New England defense. Most would agree the match was a fairly dull affair until […]
