Wrong crowd. Those are some hostile ####ers.Like some London suburban hipster doofi are gonna intimidate ee-VAN-o-VEECH.in here somewhere?: https://gfycat.com/WebbedCompleteGroundhogWhere is Christo with our pics from the game? He did that last time, right?
Sunday was seriously one of the most hostile sports crowds I've been in before. They were going crazy.
Mourhino was right!
Your fans are ####e!
Every time Terry got close to the ball they were screaming every profanity imaginable at at him--in unison.
Cesc started taunting them after the goal and #### just came raining down on them.

The guy can play the game. He's just got a few screws loose. But to his credit he kept it together and didn't let the atmosphere get to him.
They really deserved that point.

Minnesota United released this info yesterday was on their web site. I hope this is true as it would be great to see a stadium built that did not get too much public money, although I am sure some tax breaks are going to be requested.
=====================================================================
Minnesota United is dedicated to bringing the best fan experience to soccer supporters in the Twin Cities. Today members of Minnesota United’s ownership group met with government officials to discuss the financing plan for a soccer-specific stadium at the Farmer’s Market site in downtown Minneapolis.
In the proposal, the ownership group has committed to privately finance the construction of an outdoor stadium - with natural grass - that is accessible to all people and communities. The Minnesota United Major League Soccer franchise will be the first professional team in Minnesota to construct their stadium without a direct public subsidy. Minnesota United will put a total private investment of $250 million forward to:
· Purchase the MLS expansion franchise (at a cost of $100 million dollars).
· Acquire necessary land for the new soccer facility in a centrally located and under-developed part of Minneapolis (approximately $30 million for land acquisition).
· Build a first-class MLS soccer facility through private funding (estimated at $120 million).

Would love to have the Kloppmeister in England. City's tactics could likely benefit from a breath of fresh air.

MLS Cup there in December could be interesting
But since we can't grow grass indoors I am willing to trade bad weather for a small amount of the year for a good surface for most of the year.

It would not surprise me if this all star appearance by Spurs was built into the Yedlin sale.

Well it's more than interesting. Explains why the expected Hispanic infusion of talent into MLS never happened. While MLS teams are sitting around and talking about academies and scouting the pay for play community, the Hispanic community figured out a low cost way to market their kids to Mexican clubs.

I'm sure Ibra is the biggest loss for PSG, but they still have a pretty strong attack. The Veratti suspension is huge for me just based on the few PSG games I've seen, especially without Luiz available to provide cover in the midfield. Veratti was a monster in both games against Chelsea, and also in the group stage games I saw, including one against Barca.

I thought this is supposed to be a red under the current rules. Neuer got a yellow + pen. Bayern - Porto is very good.

Maybe a make up for not calling the foul by jackson on alonso?
Joking aside, that should be red for goal scoring opp?

Dammit. I turned from Barca in high-def and English to Bayern in low-def and Spanish and missed two goals apparently.

or maybe the ref thought he was going away from goal?
either way, I continue to hate that last-man = red rule.
B Maverick
Footballguy
Is it the last man = red or the Pk/goal/Red trifecta you hate?
Hate it or not thats usually a red for someone.
And nothing like a headline saying Suarez nutmegs Luiz twice, scores on each occasion

Same thing...switched and then the Bayern game ended and I saw the score and was..Wtf!Dammit. I turned from Barca in high-def and English to Bayern in low-def and Spanish and missed two goals apparently.

both.
I got the idea of trying to eliminate the professional foul in goal-scoring opportunities... just still hate that the game has to essentially end when one of these plays happen.

Embarrassing DLuiz on both, as if he's not aware that Suarez is a master nutmegger.And that Suarez goal...

looks like away goals will kill off PSG but could help BM in the return legs.

The loss of Danilo and Sandro will hurt Porto's ability to pressure. Will be interesting to see if Bayern can pull it out. They should imo.

nice covering on the run there.
but yeah- wow- great movement from him (as always) and love the meg and upper V.

Bayern very fortunate a red wasn't given.
Yep, they've been lulled to sleep in the Bundesliga.
Agreed. Porto pressured high and took advantage of Bayern's slow ball movement.

Klopp to Arsenal??!?!?!?
That was ridiculous.Embarrassing DLuiz on both, as if he's not aware that Suarez is a master nutmegger.And that Suarez goal...

Why lunge at the ball like that? You miss, and you're lunging against one of the best attackers in the world, and Suarez is alone against the keeper.
And then he just kind of turns and faces his goal as Suarez finishes.
So. Many. Demerits.
