Miranda needs to get sent off here.

Yeah, that was terrible by Miranda. ####### chump might have cost Atlético 3 points.

I was at the AO party in Newark mentioned in the article. Yes the crowd is mostly young dudes but I didn't see any sort of sexual harassment or anything inappropriate going on.
Yeah there's a ton of drinking going on but that's the case of any sporting event. Everything I experienced at the game was all in good fun

Remarkably good call by the ref there. Went frame by frame from the view in front of the players and it sure looks like Zabaleta trailed his leg and went down before the contact.

At least Atlético got a point. Terrible slump they're having though. Time to get healthy against Leverkusen I guess.
I think that red card cost Miranda some money, as he was likely out at the end of the year and his value dropped due to the stupid red and his generally poor play this season.
I'm also quite surprised that Mandzukic is still in Simeone's doghouse. He must have done something really stupid in training.
ETA: Oops, I forgot Mandzukic was suspended. It's this point in the season when you never know who is available for a given game due to card accumulation.

This did not end well. 4-1 Middlesbrough. My dreams of following the worst team in the Premier League next season are slipping away.Watching my first Ipswich Town match today on BeIN and it's been an insane start. Middlesbrough scores in the 4th minute, the Ipswich keeper seriously injured on the play, and soon as play resumes, the Tractor Boys pull back level.

damn... as a neutral, I'm a big fan of the underdog upsets- so that Burnley win was great (and deserved... wtf was MC doing out there).
damn... as a neutral, I'm a big fan of title races coming down to the wire- so that MC loss sucked ###- especially given the wtf attitude MC displayed.

Good points. I think this season is all about the relegation race, and of course the battle for Champions League spots. Chelsea has it locked up.El Floppo said:
Man City had better step it up quick... If Liverpool and ManU win the next two days, Man City would be about 4 points away from 5th place.

Arsenal to take second, City then buys half of Valencia's team this summer.

So what happens today? Does Chelski come back from mid-week disaster and smoke the fading Saints?
I have a friend in Rochester (Go, Rhinos!) who is inexplicably a Newcastle fan and who I text at least once a week about what a great manager Palace has.

A shootout between the two stingiest teams in the league would be pretty amusing.

lol @ Lee Dixon talking about how we get too wrapped up in winning and losing, and that the ultimate goal of the game is entertainment.

I know you can't count on him for 30+ games, but Carrick is a joy to watch on his day. I love the guys who can stroke it around.

Nice to see Tottenham putting up a heroic fight.

Turns out, it was all Di Maria's fault

Wow, the is easily the narrowest MLS field since the old days at Spartan Stadium.

Villa is so much more involved this week. Fantastic goal.
Ramsay Hunt Experience

Pretty fun for a game played in a phone booth. Villa had his tricksy boots on.
El Floppo
Footballguy
dammit. completely missed it.
NYC look ok? they were so disjointed that first game.
Ramsay Hunt Experience
Footballguy
They were a bit fortunate to come out of the first half unscathed, but they dominated the second half after putting the Revs down a man. Villa was very clever throughout.

NE dominated the first half with a ton of possession and good chances. NYC was very fortunate to be up at the half

I'm adopting the Timbers as my favorite MLS team as long as they have my FM13 hero Fanendo Adi.

I would like to know the answer to this, too. Because if this starts to happen with some regularity, then maybe the process needs a little overhaul. Three up and three down isn't the only system being used in Euro footy.
I have also come to enjoy the Champions League and Europa League qualifying formats and matchup determinations way better than the selection committee by puny humans used by college basketball.

This guy only scores braces. I swear he's scored two goals every time I watch him.

It really was a game of two halves. As you said, NY were very lucky to be up at half. It would be fair to say NE could have had 3 at half easy.
The second half flipped, especially after the red card on NE but even before that NYC took control of the game. Villa looked really in the mood.
The 43k crowd sounded great on tv. I wonder if it has a strong hispanic contingent as a very rare for MLS ole chant started up in second half.
Floppo, if you want to see highlights, you can watch here.
