The Meteoric rise of Eduardo Lillingston was further demonstrated last Saturday with his game winner against the Sounders. Now more than ever we are going to need Lillingston to retain his form.

The differences between tonights clash with the Fire and last weekend’s game against the Wizards are vast. Unlike Saturday, tonights game featured tempo, drive, and was not played on what appeared to be a little league baseball diamond. However, the one thing both [...]

By: Richard | No Comments
While searching for footage from last year’s SuperClásico, I came across this rather unfortunate mash-up. Just a year later, it’s hard not to find this clip incredibly dated, and i’m not just referring to the soundtrack.
