Saw the kick but missed the foul that led to it. Was it a good call?

Yeah. The Spurs defender took Kroos out in the box. He got all feet and no ball.

Lady ref running the center in the Bundesliga game right now. First time I've seen that at this high of a level. Impressive.

 

American teenager Weston McKennie is on the bench for Schalke to start this game. He started the last few games, so there is a chance he comes in as a second half sub.

 

EDIT: this ref also did the Women's World Cup final game (USA v. Japan)

USA down 2-0 early against England in the Quarterfinals of the U-17 World Cup. We're actually getting a lot of chances. But, not much shooting luck (shot off the crossbar, etc.). And, the USA defense looks a little suspect.

72,000 in Atlanta see TFC eclipse the single season points record that has stood for almost 20 years.

TFC is a very good side and their little guy can 'bend it' almost as well as Beckham.  He has scored many goals from a free kick.  His match tying goal yesterday was fantastic.  Just over the outreached hand of the goalie and nudged the bar and dropped in.

 

GO TFC!!

Koeman....OUT.

Not particularly suprising. That team is awful. And it really shouldn't be.

 

Welcome news, but an awful surprise based on what I thought would happen as of mid-August.

 

We have an Evertonian in the home, and he's been super bummed about how things have gone -- especially given the talent that was introduced to the squad.

U-17 World Cup knockout stages going on right now. USA is playing Paraguay. Strong USA team with many good attacking players (Weah, Sargent, Carlton, Akinola). You'll see several of these guys on the men's national team in 5-6 years.

 

Son of george Weah ?

Arguably the most impressive US player at the U-17 World Cup, Andrew Carlton, plays for the Atlanta United academy team. I can't imagine some European clubs won't be after him in the near future.

They just...can't score. It's incredible. 

 

I was excited about Koeman, too. Lukaku is a big loss, and is nearly impossible to replace, but they should be far better than they have been.

I frickin love Ted Lasso.

 

Also, I just heard that Arena stepped down from the USMNT. Thankful for that, I guess. But I think bigger changes are in order.

Didn't he leave last week? Or was it just speculation he was toast?

:lol:

 

Wales? Is that another country?

 

How many countries in this country?

Even funnier was that the guy answered "4".

I can't help but read that as "The Football Club", like TPC in 1984.
