Houston's GK Tyler Deric suspended after being arrested in some sort of domestic assault incident, will miss the 2nd leg vs Portland, and maybe more if they manage to advance
'Caps need to score first (LDO), and if they couldn't score at home, it doesn't fill one with confidence.
Scoreless draw in the first game wasn't the worst result; it definitely was good to hold Seattle to no road goals. But when Robinson was saying before the game that he'd be happy with a draw...ugh.
Were they given 2nd yellows in the tunnel or straight reds?
might not matter given the precedent they set with Dempsey getting a 1st half straight red, getting in the guy's face to start a scuffle, clapping in the ref's face, refusing to leave the field, etc = 1 game suspension + fine bc he's a USMNT SUPASTAH
The commentators called it Violent Conduct, which is a red card offense. Don't know if that's actually what happened, haven't seen an official explanation yet. Either way, someone will miss the first leg of the finals.
