Seattle's second goal was offside if var was implemented

@@2manameturfilms13 According to...arms in the air? There's no replay angle that shows what happened, so all you have is an arguing opponent, which happens even when the play is not offside.

Wdym thats a hand ball

@@morganlast4894 That's absolutely right, the attacker committed a hand ball. That's when play should have been stopped and Seattle given a free kick.

The video went from Seattle's 2nd penalty to their 8th and final penalty.

He didn’t, it was the fence that you saw thinking it was the line

It just started

not a true fan then - we are so used to success. Every team transitions and has a dip in form. Great teams come back. 23 regular season games left

Louisville City xg was 1.9 vs Seattle 1.49 xg. If anything, Seattle were the luckier side.

@@2manameturfilms13 0.41 xG difference rounds to 0, so...

@@2manameturfilms13 so? What I said is still objectively true. Their goals were lucky/shouldn't have counted. Both of ours were well earned came about without any crazy bounces. People are so focus on XG nowadays it's annoying. Ya'll think that you can just slap that decimal number in the comments and that trumps everything. Nah man context matters.

Run of play? A set piece goal is not run of play 🤦🏻‍♂️

@@bradp3766 and how did that dangerous set piece come to be? Through effective run of play leading to effective attacking positioning. Something that we've been complaining about the lack of all season correct? Plus that's only one of the 2 goals we had. Even if you're going to throw out that second goal because it's a set piece then what I said is STILL true because none of their goals were from pure attacking run of play. They had one that was a fluke bounce around scavenger goal and another on an incorrect penalty call.

Stop being a clown if MLS puts their real starters. All MLS teams will walk away with wins unless they face other MLS teams.

As much as I want to take the Open Cup a little more seriously, we're not going to put our top players when we have a weekend game against your team. 6 out of 8 MLS teams advanced through at the end of this round.

Love the open cup but the sounders had one starter and 2 regular contributors on the full game day roster lol

Nah. ALL top-tier clubs play their reserves in early rounds of their domestic cup tournaments. There have been many "embarrassing" losses in early rounds by teams like Real Madrid and Man U.

@@michaelgarcia8430 that's funny... And MLS gets hammered when they go against ANY euro team... MLS is not as good as you assume.

easiest path for champions league

It’s because of the congestion with the schedule. Sounders are playing every 3-4 days, or twice a week for the entire month of May. Plus they have the game against Portland on Sunday.

He was playing the b team dog

@@olafcoffey1233 That's my point. The A-team isn't cutting it in MLS season, ala not making playoffs, and Messi is gonna win the shield. Schmetzer actually has a chance to win in a tournament considering every other MLS team will also play B-sides in these games.

@@letti4285 Literally every team sees these game totals and has a busy schedule at some point. It really sucks to be a professional athlete.
