hate to say it, but the chiefs still wouldn't have won the super bowl even with dejan lining up in the slot

guys the chicago fire might be back

77 minutes of absolutely brutal soccer and then a great counter attacking goal LAFC are so back

Joaquín Pereyra struggled to make an impact for Minnesota United after arriving last summer. Another quiet performance today. Something to watch as the year goes on.

11 passes from Tillman so far, 8 of them backwards. Saw the same thing vs. Colorado midweek. This midfield balance is gonna need some sorting out.

This is so, so good from Kelvin Yeboah. First touch, strength, speed, distribution. It's all there. It'll be fun to see him flex wider a bit more often in Eric Ramsay's new 3-5-2 look for Minnesota United.
