They even lost the xG battle again. Inject it into my veins. #RCTID

Revenge for The Asterisk. First win in Carson since 2020. Three-match unbeaten streak away from home. Seven match unbeaten streak. Best start through 10 games in the MLS era. Second in the West. Five points behind Shield-leaders Vancouver. #RCTID

Antony has upped his game this year. Remarkable to watch

This team drives Matt Doyle insane and I am so on love with them for this.

It drives him nuts because there’s no drama or retired euro players in the squad. He won’t say anything positive about the Timbers having their best first 10 matches, or being 2nd in the West.

Better check again buddy

Interesting. My recollection is that the post-game show had it at something like 2.37 to 2.04, which matches this from the Timbers site.

Yeah, with a game that close in xG it's bound to flip flop depending on what xG model you look at. You can pick whatever supports your agenda!

So xG really is as useless as I think it is, then.

callankehoe.bsky.social•1 day ago

It's only useless if you're saying Galaxy should've won the game because their xG is 0.2 higher or something. Over the course of multiple games, it's not useless
