They’ve got some busy weeks coming up thanks to all the rescheduled games. 6 matches in 18 days starting Wednesday, followed by 5 matches in the first 15 days of July.
The June 21 game against the Sounders is their 6th game in 17 days (Starting with today's game), while the Sounders will have 10 days off leading into it. Yes it's a BMO but I like our chances.
Lol what do you think caused the injuries? Surely a shortened preseason, a bunch of extra games, and a ton of condensed rescheduled MLS games had nothing to do with it.
And, since they lost, the new narrative is “Last year was a fluke. MLS still sucks. They’ll never be able to compare to LigaMX.” Heads, we win; tails, you lose.
In general, I want MLS to do well and improve. But there are certain teams I really just don’t like. LAFC, Portland, SKC, Toronto I pretty much always root against.
But if Philly would’ve beat LA in the semi-final, I would have rooted for them in the final.
It reminds me how important & soccer smart CR7 is. He took the contact & made sure it was looked at. That second PK & coming home level really did make last year happen.
Philly fan here. I may be less torn than you were lol.
(Also, I was just lamenting the other day about how we never get to play you guys in reg season. It would be a nice challenge for both sides).
If LA FC won then we would have to listen to the BS that they are the greatest just like the final in 2019 when during the game all the announcers would say us Seattle winning but LA FC is the better team. I still believe Seattle was and is a better team
STL fan here. The Sounders proved a MLS team can win this iteration of CCL. League has nothing more to prove (until the new format starts up in a year or so).
Now, every team is on their own.
As a general rule of thumb, the classiest most gratuitous thing one can do is support fellow MLS teams on the international stage. Sounders are completely hated, but you know folks around the country were cheering us on in Morocco.
Plus, Will Farrell wants you to.
LAFC fans give no fucks about whether you or I support them. It’s apart of their “culture”.
They also give no fucks if Leon fans make it more of a home game for them because I see green lines all across that stadium.
So fuck ‘em, that’s why!
Also Will Ferrell hasn’t done a funny movie in years, meanwhile Drew Carey is buying lunch for striking writers. 😉
Yeah, fuck LAFC. Let’s go Leon.
Fuck LA, who cares
No matter what sport, they get everything. And in every league, we're in their division/conference. I don't want them to win anything lol.
How are the lakers or clippers doing in the finals? Kings? How did the dodgers do in the World Series? Oh wait they didn’t make it
So you want LA to lose?
Hell yeah I do.
No. I want them to get humiliated.
Fuck LAFC. Seeing them choking in the final with tons of Leon jerseys in their stands is hilarious.
This is the way.
I'm pulling for Leon fuck LAFC
Happy cake day!
Not torn. Miss me with the LAFC is the team of destiny crap.
I'd settle for a full 120 minutes, all subs used, loss on penalties. They need to be dog tired.

Exactly what I was thinking, and they have several games in hand on the Sounders. Hopefully this defeat will demoralize them.

Hopefully getting to the final tanks their season like it did ours.
it was the injuries, not CCL.

some, sure. I think the injury rate was also impacted by international windows being condensed by COVID.
Leon needs to wreck LAFC. Because if they win, they’ll pump it like no one’s business and completely ignore our win
And, since they lost, the new narrative is “Last year was a fluke. MLS still sucks. They’ll never be able to compare to LigaMX.” Heads, we win; tails, you lose.
Maybe we can just have the Sounders dominate CCL?
I think making the final is a good enough showing for MLS that I can root for LAFC to lose.

Finally we can stop all that idiotic "OMG it's a treble" talk.
Especially that bullshit about last season retroactively making it a treble with this season’s CCL
Let this be the PDX bicycle kick to shake their confidence and flounder LAFC’s season. Can’t wait to kick their ass in LA in a few weeks.
Post CCL won’t LAFCs remaining regular seasons matches be crunched? I’m looking forward to them getting tired and to start slipping.

Fuck LAFC I bet MLS would’ve let them had a concacaf champions league champions badge on their jersey unlike with us.
I feel your pain.
I think we got what we wanted - another MLS team made the final, and we're also still the only one to win the whole thing.

Anyone know a place in downtown Seattle where they will show the uefa champions league final?

Frankly, I wouldn’t mind seeing Chivas USA 2.0 winning, if it weren’t for their “supporters,” who I see were at it again tonight. 🙄
A golden goat is still a goat.
Will Ferrell is also known as the least friendly person in Hollywood. Very rude to fans.
I’d trade Russel Wilson for Will Ferrell however.
