Pepi's #s are actually pretty insane

7g and 1a in only 350 minutes of play.

Luuk de Jong has like 31 total goals, so Pepi hardly gets any starts, but de Jong is 33 so can't have much time left, so hopefully Pepi can take over soon. He's still only 21.

Balogun crushed last year with 21 Ligue 1 goals with Monaco, but is down to 5 this year. So CF position may not be on lock down if someone else steps up.

4 assists for Vanzeir maybe a record for a match?

little question that scottish messi has been the best whitecap in the mls era. crazy that brian white has been nearly as productive, and he's just some guy that nyrb didn't want

Which is odd b/c in his time at NYRB he had 14g 4a in less than a full season's worth of minutes, and at 22-24 years old.

Tigres-Crew highlights prob worth checking out for the lulz. They drew leg 1 in Columbus at 1-1 which is probably a result that you'd think would sink the Crew. Even moreso when they gift Tigres a goal early on, but miraculously they pulled it out, so MLS won't be shut out in the semis (all 4 semifinal teams were seemingly gonna be Liga MX).

Messi will have to conjure up some of that old magic tonight if Miami will advance. They lost 2-1 at home and will need a bunch of away goals in Rayados place.

even though the match is in Mexico, I'm expecting a couple of dubious ref calls to go Inter Messi's way tonight (just like vs. Nashville). it would be a boost attention-wise for CCL to have Inter Messi in the final.

Didn't watch, but Miami must have been pathetic. And saw in the highlights that Callender gifted Rayados a goal early.

Miami had only 5 total attempts all game (1 on goal) in a match where Rayados would be content to sit back and soak up pressure. Pathetic.

Don't watch enough to know for sure, but it seems like a GM Lebron situation where Messi just wanted to bring in his friends rather than construct the best squad possible. They're still one of the better MLS squads, but with Messi plus using that money instead on the best players available in North and South America (most of whom would've loved to play with Messi), they could've been something special.

on the glass half full side for vancouver fans, the canucks got a big win tonight.

But the MLS day belongs to Inter Messi winning at Arrowhead stadium packed with 72k fan...and horrific SKC defense (watch the highlights if u don't believe me!)
