i just dont understand y the MLS CUp isnt played at night, better atmosphere and better for the players not playing under the sun....

Columbus will probably defend their title once again this year.

U cant learn in 4 or 10 years to play football pro. U have to born with that talent.

Cheers from Argentine!

Very nice goal, a work of art, yeah!

aslad has a point, as a future college player myself I see this is true. College soccer is actually catchin on here, D 1 is pretty good. Some D 2 guys get into MLS as well. LA Galaxy signed an 18 year old who is pretty sick, can't remember his name though.

That was a beautiful goal. When I was watching this game it restored a glimmer of hope in the MLS. The only problem is all the players in the MLS make some stupid career ending tackles so nobody wants to play here. That and the collegiate system fucks up a lot of stuff since the prime of most players is 18-25, and you get out of college around 23-25. Just doesn't work.

There are far fewer leg breaking, bone crunching tackles in MLS than in, say, the English First Division, Scotland, Germany Bundesliga and 2nd division, etc The league is not very old, and does not have a reputation as an overly physical league, at least not by worldwide standards. By North American and South American standards perhaps, but only slightly.

As for college..... who the hell gets out of college when they are 25?

I was 21 and graduated after 4 years.

The crying little kid in the background behind Sigi and Bobby at 1:27 is awesome.
