RSL Grind Out 1-0 Home Win vs Impact

The match with Portland was pretty, and not just because of the fortuitous ending. Last night, not so much. Real Salt Lake (4­–1–­0, 12 pts.) clung to Paulo, Jr.’s 13th minute penalty kick and shooed Montreal (0–1–4, 1 pt.) out of a sold-out Rio Tinto Stadium with a 1–0 win Wednesday night. After the game, Coach Kreis […]

Impact End Road Trip With Zero Points

The Montreal Impact head home and end their three game road trip without gaining a single point. Montreal got a draw in their first MLS home match but have lost every road game thus far. Their record currently stands at 0-3-1. Even though the home-side Real Salt Lake played well under their “A” game form, the Impact were never […]

FC Dallas at the Foot of a Mountain

FC Dallas is at the foot of a mountain, gazing upward. Certainly it’s not a Vesuvius (with the lava, ash, and all) or Kilimanjaro, or a McKinley for that matter, but the uphill climb the team faces could become steep without a desirable result against New England Thursday night. Team issues with FC Dallas Team mentality. Brek Shea and Carlos Rodriguez […]

Get to Know Your TFC Players: Ryan Johnson

Here’s part one in a series of player profiles I will be conducting throughout the season. They are just some fun interviews with TFC players in order to help fans “get to know” the players off the pitch. First off we have Ryan Johnson, the Jamaican born forward who has been one of the few […]

Poor Home Form Continues for Chivas USA

Chivas USA returned to the Home Depot Center on Sunday night to face Eastern Conference leaders Sporting Kansas City in the hope they could stop the visitor’s impressive winning run and start their own. However, after a shock 1-0 away win last week, The Goats decided to revert back to their poor home form and […]

Weekend That Was – April 2

As another weekend in the MLS has passed, much of the parity that we saw last year within the two conferences is starting to form again. Other than Sporting KC, who continued their perfect start to the season, four teams are all locked on six points for second place in the Eastern Conference. The same […]

DC 4, Dallas 1, Oh the Humanity

Is this tailspin as bad as the Hindenburg’s? Not quite, but serious corrections need to be made to a Dallas squad that has capitulated in the second half three games on the trot. As refreshing as it was to see Brek and Carlos back in the lineup Friday night, FCD looked uninspired late on against […]

Old Cliche and New Revs Stun Galaxy

Thank you, Coach Heaps. When you were hired you spoke about some of the changes you wanted to make and how you hoped that would change the way our club played on the field. We are only four games into your first season, so there is still plenty of time for any storylines or themes […]

Four Unanswered Goals Sink Impact

The New York Red Bulls blasted away the Montreal Impact by a scoreline of 5-2 inside Red Bull Arena on the last day of March. Montreal took the lead in the 18th minute via a combination of poor Red Bulls defense and the opportunistic play of Sanna Nyassi. 10 minutes later (28th minute), Thierry Henry […]

Tale of Two Halves as Red Bulls Down Impact

On a windy day in Harrison, NJ, the New York Red Bulls had to come from behind twice to deny expansion side Montreal their first victory in MLS. Montreal started the game with a very high line of pressure and the Red Bulls found it hard to control the ball. NY fell into old habits […]

Sounders Undone by Penalty Kick

Seattle were hoping to make it three out of three at home to start the season but faced a tough test against a San Jose team coming off the back of a big 3-0 away against Toronto FC. The Sounders had an early chance to break the deadlock after a ball was whipped in by Alonso […]

United Takes Back RFK in Win Over Dallas

This week, signs were hung up with the words “Take Back RFK” in big letters. DC United did just that putting together a dominating performance beating FC Dallas 4-1 on Friday night at RFK. A brace by Maicon Santos and goals from Nick DeLeon and Danny Cruz gave the Black and Red their biggest offensive performance to date […]

Chicago Fall To Colorado

Chicago entered Dicks Sporting Goods Park Sunday afternoon hoping to maintain their undefeated start to 2012, but Colorado would have none of it, dominating possession and putting away two goals to seal up a fairly easy win in Denver, while sending Chicago back home to ponder their first loss of the season over next weekend’s […]

Chivas USA Welcome SKC to HDC Looking for Another Win

Chivas USA take on Sporting Kansas City this coming Sunday in what will be their second game in a row against a side leading their conference. After a shock 1-0 away win over Real Salt Lake last weekend, The Goats will be trying to repeat this feat in front of their home fans at the […]

TFC Let Down by Defense Once Again

It was a much nicer day at BMO Field but the end result for TFC was not any better than last week’s 3-0 loss to San Jose. While TFC were the better team for the most part of the game, they were unable to find the back of the net and it came back to […]
