The 2021 MLS Cup Playoffs began this weekend, rendering all other sports and leagues entirely meaningless over the next two weeks. If the snob in you says “no, I want to watch Liverpool stick four past Arsenal” or the masochist points you in the general direction of the Detroit Lions, let Saturday’s opening two games serve as a lesson.
As Major League Soccer prepares for the 2021 playoffs and an international break approaches, it’s worth looking back at some of the great international stars who have played in the league. David Beckham, Frank Lampard, Carlos Valderrama and Didier Drogba have all been huge names but have one thing in common: they never won a World Cup. Has an MLS player won the World Cup?
After a remarkable Decision Day that ended with Colorado atop the Western Conference and Salt Lake in the postseason at the expense of the LA Galaxy, it’s time to begin our countdown to the Cup final on Dec. 11 with some MLS playoff predictions.
Thankfully, this season’s action begins after the November international break so there’ll be no awkward space between the first round on Nov. 20 and the conference semifinals on Thanksgiving.
La policía de Filadelfia puso sobre la mesa 20.000 dólares de recompensa para quienes puedan dar información sobre los cuatro aficionados del América involucrados en el asesinato de un hombre, en un restaurante de la ciudad. Junto al dinero, la institución también distribuyó imágenes de los sospechosos, incluyendo un video en HD del crimen.
A group of Club America fans are wanted by Philadelphia police after killing a 28-year-old at a Pat’s King of Steaks in South Philadelphia Thursday night. Police reported that four men wearing Club America jerseys assaulted a group of three men that included a 64-year-old father, his 28-year-old son and a friend of the son.
Pese a las críticas que se come de vez en cuando, Memo Ochoa en general está cuando se lo necesita. El América puede dar fe de ello, luego de la gran actuación del portero en la semifinal de vuelta de la Concacaf Champions League ante el Philadelphia Union.
Ochoa respondió cada vez que el equipo de la MLS lo puso en aprietos, llevando a Las Águilas a su primera final continental desde 2016 y la primera del equipo bajo el mando de Santiago Solari.
While the USMNT is dealing with the travails of Concacaf World Cup qualifying, MLS play continues on, because international breaks are for the weak, or something. But MLS is still seeing its share of Concacafy nonsense, if this Henry Kessler time wasting is anything to go by.
We’re all getting nice and familiar with 20-year-old USMNT phenom Brenden Aaronson at this point. The Medford, New Jersey native flew through the youth ranks at Philadelphia Union and immediately established himself as one of MLS’s brightest attackers despite being just a teenager.
On Wednesday, Major League Soccer announced its 28-player roster for the 2021 MLS All-Star Game. On Wednesday, Aug. 25, this group will play a highly anticipated match against the Liga MX All-Stars at Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles.
Some of the players have been here before (LAFC’s Carlos Vela, Orlando City’s Nani, Nashville’s Walker Zimmerman), but a number of players have been selected for the first time, including rising stars like San Jose’s Cade Cowell, Dallas’ Ricardo Pepi and New England’s Tajon Buchanan.
Raúl Ruidíaz scored one of the goals of his life against Austin FC on Thursday with an absolute missile from near midfield. Ruidíaz saw Austin’s goalkeeper off his line and made him pay for it with a sumptuous strike. This is one of the best MLS goals of the season.
