Decision Day is Sunday. Some playoff spots still in the mix as well as seedings. I'll have a playoff preview coming up next week.....well unless we get another hurricane and it is 2020.

Here's a preview to the playoffs. I am going with Columbus vs Seattle in the final. At least that's where my heart is. My head says Philly is just playing really well right now.

Not doing too bad so far. Got Nashville, Columbus, and New England correct. Went with NYCFC upsetting Orlando but Orlando pulled it out going to penalties.

Sporting KC and San Jose sure is action packed.

 

2-2 when I turned it on around minute 78. Wondo got a great header chance for the lead but the keeper saved it off the pipes. Then KC goes down and gets a semi break wide and finds an open runner who nets the go ahead in the 91st minute.  Seemed to be all but over but in the 95th minute San Jose got one more chance and found Wondo behind the back line and he headed home the tying goal. 3-3 and headed for extra time.

What an insane finish to the KC match. Nobody scored in extra time to it went to penalties. And KC was perfect in penalties.  

 

Came to the line three times and put the ball into the back of the net three times.

 

San Jose came to the line three times and Melia the KC keeper made three saves.

 

Sad to see Wondo walk off the pitch one last time. What a career. Gonna miss you Chris.

Well so far the Western Conference has wrecked my bracket.

 

Predicted Colorado with a close upset win over Minnesota. Not hardly. The Loons stomped the Rapids 3-0.

 

Predicted the playoff experience of Portland to carry them past a Dallas side that had lost 5 of their last six on the road. So much for playoff experience. Tied after regulation. Tied after extra time. And had to go to extended penalties for Dallas to pull off the upset.

I'll always remember him for missing that goal from the doorstep in the WC game against Belgium  when Howard made about 30 saves.

Unreal is all there is to say.

 

#7 Nashville beats #2 Toronto (and they looked old and tired).

 

# 8 New England beats #1 Philly

Well at least Seattle held serve last night beating LAFC 3-1. And Jordan Morris continued his great form this season with another goal and strong game.

Was really hoping Minnesota United would make it with the UMD connection
