Nagbe is a good player, but he wasn't so good today. He's not much of a playmaker like almiron. He needed to attack at the end there, not go backwards.

And by playmaker I meant in the final third. He's def good at facilitating between the defense and attack.

What was he going to attack? There were 2 guys preventing his forward movement and there was no one to pass to.

He could have passed it out wide, he did the same thing a few minutes before.

We couldn't keep the ball, I just thought we should take our chances before it ended up as a loss.

Go back and watch it again. When he turned to his left, one defender got on his right side, so he couldn't pass it wide to the right. There was no one wide to the left. Williams was slowly coming back from inside the box, but a defender was on his shoulder. There was really nowhere to go but back. Parkhurst then sent a shitty ball forward that fell to a NYC player without an AUFC player within 15 yards.

Looks like it was more of a mouth injury than concussion related.

Yeah, bleeding of some kind. Looked bad at first.

But, man, Josef on a direct free kick? Who would've imagined?

What are you doing, Miggy? 2 wide arse open players on your left and you take that shitty shot?

How have Columbus not received a single yellow by the Yellow Master out there?

As long as the league keeps letting them get away with it, teams are gonna keep doing it.

We've all got a new favorite South American team if Tito can pull this off.
