beatdown

In case you missed it



my main thoughts from the game:
DE MARK US BEEEEEEESS LEYY: oh my. two goals in the first half, looked extremely dangerous at all times, and even after a couple guys got stuck in bad against him, he still fought it out. well done lad, please let this be the beginning of you being back.
the future is bright: oh my. breakout much? a couple of the youngins showed up big.
-jozy looked super dangerous. his beastlyness is undoubted at this point, and his goal was one of those that you see forwards that are bosses score.
-jose francisco torres looked sharp in the midfield, passed well and uncorked a shot from like 30 out that was a scorcher. kid is 20. and lethal. and left footed. oy vey.
-freddy "what it adu?" did work. he took a guy one on one and then snapped in a beaut that gooch smashed home. i got love for freddy. in fact, i even snatched the us away with his name on it. do work fredu do work.
-sasha got robbed. by chingaling. another super game from sasha, he looks great at dcentermid with baby bradley. he would have scored if chingy hadn't poached it off the line. well done anyway.

so when i said the future was bright, well, let's just say we could be talking "cop car weird attachment lights that they shine on your car at night when you get pulled over" bright.

big ups to gooch too, classy header to get the last goal and get some love from his friends and fam, who were 100+ strong. gotta love a big goal for a big crowd. also much love to dc, the place was rockin, you could tell from tv when 20ish mins in the screaming eagles section was literally bouncing. magnificent.

a picture is worth a thousand words

but these two are worth a lot more then that.


chingy is gettin his inner thief on lately. he is poaching goals left and right, and suddenly you can't count him out of anything. get it boy. the goal he stole from sasha kljestan on saturday was dirtay. however, as well as he has been playing, you cant argue with his production and level of play. well done chingaling.

BEST.JERSEY.EVER.
hands down.
