impressive miss by Will Bruin

is he finished now or what?

edit: hmm, looks like he's been ok with Seattle so far

edit2: and then right on cue, Bruin scores a goal ... but it should be 2

Minny seem historically awful, but at least they play open
this game could legit be like 6-2 at the half lol

most bad teams tend to be really negative, which is just the worst

meanwhile TFC ride a red & OG en route to getting 1 point instead of 0

Jordan Morris ****s up a bunch of chances but still manages to score a goal anyway

Seattle could legit have like 8-10 goals in this one

thoughts, LFC?

He's no Christian Cueva but a good player nonetheless. Not going to set the league on fire (at least he shouldn't) but a quality player who should definitely improve Orlando

NY v. NY derby is fun right now. Tackles flying in and one each from BWP and Villa. Should be a good second half if anyone's not currently MLS'ing.

Been half watching. Good game so far. Yankee Stadium pitch is awful though. Game definitely getting spicy with a dive shout that probably was a penalty. Villa seems into it

played bad but point seems fair given how soft that penalty was. apparently just throwing yourself down still works

Ballou Jean-Yves Tabla has told Montreal Impact he wants to leave after the MLS club rejected several offers for his services, sources close to the player have told ESPN FC.

A number of European clubs including Chelsea are tracking Tabla, 18, after the winger's impressive showings for Montreal in the MLS this season.

An unnamed European club firmed up their interest in Tabla by making a bid for him, sources said, but the Impact have not entered negotiations over a possible deal.

The sources said Tabla's suitors have made several offers for the player but Montreal is not willing to open talks, leading the youngster to inform the club of his desire to play in Europe.

Montreal's stance has upset Tabla, with sources saying the teenager is angry and disappointed that the club are denying him the chance to move.

The main lol IMFC is that they didn't just sell him while he was still with FC MTL instead of signing him to an MLS contract and then selling him b/c I think you have to split up the transfer proceeds once he's an MLS player.

I guess maybe the plan was to sign him and at least get a year or 2 out of him and play hardball until they feel like selling.

He's probably getting pissed that he isn't yet a no-brainer starter over Dominic Oduro, and he has a point there. Biello's kinda been an idiot with his lineup choices and tactics this year. Wouldn't be too upset if he's let go.

sounds like Carlos Vela to LAFC is happening and will be announced tomorrow.

In less glamorous news, Philippe Senderos has signed up with Houston Dynamo. Talk about a retirement league signing.

Semifinal 1 live streaming only.

Danny Hoesen what a finish. Struggling in the league but that was a great start.

1-1 can't complain too much since almost entire half was played in the quakes half.

Also starting a new Swiss defender for the first time, and for once Wondo is available and not starting.

sounds like no one thinks he's worth the fee/salary
