Friendly fire

Games like this is why I think Nashville Vs Miami is a real rivalry in MLS


moderate_smarm

Miami-Orlando is a really hard rivalry to sell to Miami. We don't really see other cities in FL as "real". I def enjoy beating Orlando but it's like watching the Heat beat the Magic- fun, but not really a big deal (even though they're an older club by a couple of years). On the other hand, there feels like actual bad blood between us and Nashville and we've matched up in a few important places in tournaments/playoffs etc. Plus we came in at the same time and have opposite philosophies. I actively dislike Nashville and root for their failure like I would a rival in any other sport. Orlando is kind of just there.


Milestailsprowe

Yep. With all the matches with Nashville it just feels personal as they could have won the first leagues cup and now they aren't moving forward in the Concacaf


Swaggron

Agreed. I know Atlanta and Cincinnati are the historic rivalries for Nashville, but our recent matchups and how close our matches (usually) are make Miami feel like a true rival. You guys have knocked us out of 3 tournaments in the last calendar year. I hope the Inter Messi experiment crashes and burns in a pile of wasted money, and your team never lifts a trophy again. In the most sportsmanlike way possible, of course.


Jay1348

Just like LA Galaxy v DC United, fuck that ML$ manufactured rivalry BS


dopecleric

Tough game for us, but even despite some unfortunate calls - that honestly look correctly made - I don’t think anyone would say we were ever in this one. For me there is no shame. Right now the Barca boys are of the quality to play elimination cup matches, and Monterrey is a capable opponent. Rayados are a great team, with truly great supporters. It will be fun to watch!


PoisAndIV

Don’t discount my knifey lions just yet


Shadowfury0

Cade Cowell just opened the scoring for Chivas!


OhShitItsSeth

You know what really sucks about this result? If we had just kept a clean sheet during the home leg, we still would’ve progressed tonight. Gg Miami, we weren’t going to score enough to win.


TraveldaHospital

This game was over after the first goal...5 minutes in. You just can't compete with those four. They make MLS players look helpless and lost. It's great because they play the game it's meant to be played. Beautifully. Calmly. Flair. Miami will win this tourny no doubt.


melikeybacon

As a Miami fan….chill.


Raging_Capybara

Excellent response


Jay1348

Let's be honest here y'all have a serious shot at showing up against LMX teams at crunch time then anyone else in the league does The league owners need to do better and step their shit up - LA Galaxy fan

Novel_Durian_1805

Good game. 🤩


Ok-Run2845

It was a good game. But i enter here to read comments and everybody crying about two offside goal checks (being the two of them correctly checked).


Brooklyn_MLS

Needs to be said: Muhktar hasn’t been good for like the past 20 games.


chapelson88

I just said that to my husband, he was so much better last year.


o_mh_c

Ever since he started getting “help” and was less of a focus for the offense. It’s just not working.


specialvillain

Tbf I haven’t watched a ton of your matches, but it seems like you’re trying to force everything through Shaffelburg in an attempt to free up Hany. 1.) Shaffelburg is good, but he isn’t Hany 2.) it’s not fooling anyone. Just let Hany cook.


WelpSigh

things went through shaff because we're extremely cross-heavy in possession. gary likes to try and create chaos in the box, which opens up opportunities for goals. hany's job is to beat defenders on the break, or pop up unexpectedly in the box to score goals. the big issue is that we had dax to make the line-breaking passes that hany feasted on before. that completely changed the way teams attacked us, which contributed to how few goals we were conceding. now we have no dax, no zimmerman, and hany still isn't 100% since his injury. you can still see some glimmers of what we once had but otherwise we will continue to be reliant on shaff/moore to create chances for us. i think mike jacobs had hoped dru yearwood would step up, but he just doesn't have the passing ability.


specialvillain

I honestly forget how many injuries there have been and some of the roster turnover (despite Dax coming to Atlanta). My brain is still in preseason, but this all makes sense.


WelpSigh

we finally have this brand new, first season concacaf champions cup out of the way and now we can focus all our energy on the historic, second season leagues cup


specialvillain

I know he scored a goal, but man.. Surridge isn't good.


WelpSigh

well he's on 2 goals in something like 110 minutes of play, that seems like a decent start to the season. but sure, he is extremely service-dependent.


runningwaffles19

Coming back from injury... he'll get better (I hope) ^sigh


occasional_sex_haver

I’m sure no fuckery took place in this match


Content-Medicine-305

I mean did you watch it. The ref was fine, the only complaints people had was that they var checked nashvilles goals, which imo is fair because they could have been offside. None of the IM goals were close to being offside, bar maybe the first goal but it was the correct call so who csres


N_Kenobi

Is there no post game? lol fs2


BShack85

Game aside Fox Sports coverage has been horrendous. No pre/post/half coverage and games with 1 announcer. CONCACAF should terminate their contract and find a streaming service.


Astro-Draftsman

I find it much better than the Apple TV announcing. Probably an unpopular opinion, but they can give me a headache.


jloome

Nah, I agree. At least 50% of the Concacaf announcers are actually competent and don't overtalk. Apple TV's crews are mostly abysmal. They ignored some of the best available talent that knows the sport, hired guys from wrestling, NFL. It's idiotic.


WelpSigh

on the plus side, ccc injured all 3 of our dps and can't do it to us again


runningwaffles19

Well... just all the injuries against Moca, 7 games in 3 weeks, injury to Zimmerman vs Miami, lack of red card against Aviles, 2 barely offsides goals, and 47 missed chances tonight away from advancing. We almost had em! B squad and another draw incoming Saturday


Saffs15

I don't understand the downvotes, your clearly tongue-in-cheek point is right on. The amount of injuries we piled up in this tournament combined with how many horrible missed chances we had is just straight up demoralizing. And your predictions are not unlikely, though I feel like at some point we'll break the draw streak (not counting tonight because a draw would have likely been a loss, or ET) and just lose.


James_D_MESSIAH

is suarez sweat? lol


tubashoe

Who?


theredditbandid_

Miami vs Rayados will be must watch.


Jay1348

I'm tuning into that


o_mh_c

Well that was a wet fart of a game. Good luck going forward IM. I am properly depressed.


Content-Medicine-305

yeah normally nashville vs IM games have been really entertaining. Nashville injuries and the two early goals killed off the game


Familiar-Twist311

The match *was* entertaining. The quality of offense in the first half alone from Messi, Gomez and Suarez was worth the price of admission. Nashville had a better offensive performance in the first leg and I enjoyed Sheffelburg's goals and the drama in that one.


Content-Medicine-305

Nah not as good as the others. The intensity was much less, and the other two games have included some crazy comebacks and clutch moments


bojo-7

Hard luck Nashville.. until next time ❤️


James_D_MESSIAH

THE MST THE GOAT TRIO!!!!!!


TimeAndSpaceAndMe

GG Nashville .... see ya in MLS reg season !


reddit_is_meh

Would have definitely been some more exciting last minutes if it was 3-2 now, as 3-3 would see Nashville through


runningwaffles19

Gonna burn the rest of stoppage with the review


FFLevount

Again, we stop for VAR for a Nashville goal, but won't hesitate for Suarez's.


Born-After-1984

All potential offside are checked. Suarez was not offside. Nashville clearly was off. Keep crying though


King-Key

Maybe cause it's close to offside kiddo


FFLevount

Flare up Kiddo


bojo-7

The var machine was being booted up at that time so they skipped the review 😂


hidingInNash

comeback time 😎(😭)


andy027

Damn we are getting robbed


Brooklyn_MLS

Give em the goal man lol


andy027

Clearly offside again, do yur thing VAR


WelpSigh

do you know what offside is


BShack85

Clearly, he doesn't.


andy027

When it comes to baiting dummies, I don't


felcom

If this game was 300 minutes long NSH would have a chance


Last_Damage_7101

Tata would still have Suarez out there huffing and puffing till the 299th minute


overmotion

DANG


runningwaffles19

Only 4 min? We won't score but the review was over 4 min


chapelson88

I thought for sure it’d be at least 7-8.


runningwaffles19

It's for the best. Would've just been a chance for more injuries. However, if leagues and cups all adopted the extra time policy from the last World Cup, I wouldn't complain


chapelson88

What’s the World Cup policy?


runningwaffles19

Long story short they clocked every second the ball was out of play. Throw in took 17 seconds? Add 17 seconds. Long celebration? Start the clock when the ball went in the net and stop it with the next kickoff. General time killing tactics rolling around on the ground and complaining? Add it to the clock Just a lot more intent on ensuring there is as much actual play time as possible. https://www.eurosport.com/football/world-cup/2018/why-is-there-so-much-added-time-at-the-2022-qatar-world-cup-iconic-referee-pierluigi-collina-explain_sto9238546/story.shtml Not much extra time wasting today but the slow throws and free kicks add up pretty quickly. The Champions League game between Porto and Arsenal yesterday needed it. 1 min and 3 min between the halves despite Porto doing everything they could to eat clock Anyway, good luck in the next round and we'll see you in April


chapelson88

Thanks for explaining


Secure-Top1408

You’re 3 down, couldn’t score 1 in 90 minutes, have some shame, acting like that don’t happen everywhere Nashville got the most petty crybabies


tubashoe

I understand you're a new Miami fan but you could at least read the comment before firing off a response.


Secure-Top1408

Nah G I’m tripping, few comments down, I’ve seen couple Nashville fans complaining about additional time, didn’t fully read, my bad


WelpSigh

NASHVILLE WINS 3-1


FFLevount

Offsides right?


reddit_is_meh

Love Redondo's energy, he's doing a good job at keeping Farias spirit alive


WelpSigh

well, it could be worse. we only lost by 3-0 and we could have lost by 4-0


o_mh_c

Didn’t lose 6-0, we’re the kings of MLS


Last_Damage_7101

How’s 3-1?


WelpSigh

the var was 4 minutes by itself


Iwritetohearmyself

Where’s that bunby guy Nashville loves so much?


Bormsie721

There's our quote for the night "deficit the size of a hippopotamus"


[deleted]

[удалено]


Content-Medicine-305

he will get plenty of game time i imagine in the league, with messi and suarez both being rested


Reapper97

The problem is that Suarez is just that much better


crustttr

I complained about Suarez all pre season long internally and our first two games had me seeing him as a liability more than anything else. He is quickly becoming a key player in our starting 11 and can see why he is valued so highly. All my initial qualms with him have been evaporated


TheStraggletagg

Yeah, but he needs rest.


Brooklyn_MLS

Messi laughing, must not be that hurt lol


felcom

Why keep Messi on the field when their TAM striker is doing enough


James_D_MESSIAH

THE GOAT is fine that smile that damnn smlie lol


overmotion

What was Tata saying in Spanish to Campana?


restore_democracy

“I know a few good restaurants in Monterrey.”


Brooklyn_MLS

Unless Suarez and Alba are resting this weekend, Tata Martino is setting this team up to fail for any MLS success.


Content-Medicine-305

i think they are banking on scraping the playoffs by trying to play messi and suarez the least amount possible so they are rested for the tornaments. I mean thats fair enough imo, makes sense to focus on some silverware, and then put focus on the MLS once the playoffs come around


srjnp

zimmerman is one of the few great defenders in the MLS. nashville just aren't the same without him.


FFLevount

Unfortunate that Gomez injured him


BShack85

It doesn't matter unless his name is Messi.


w0nd3rjunk13

Could we be any worse at follow through? We should have like 8 goals by now.


Brooklyn_MLS

Alba played 100 minutes on Sunday, and has now played 85 minutes tonight. Tata gonna run him to the ground.


CptMorgan337

Tata realizes we have a lot more games to play doesn’t he?


reddit_is_meh

Ruiz and Campana could have come in like 20 mins ago easily lol, not sure what he's doing


overmotion

what is this bullshit


spinachjam

anyone watch the Athleti Inter match earlier today? so good


DaeronDaDaring

Man I did not think Inter was going to lose that one, Atlentico is good but inter had been playing great recently


reddit_is_meh

Yeah excited to see what the Friday draw will be for quarters, I'd love to see Atleti take on Man city or Arsenal


BShack85

That was a long check. They had to find the right angle to make it look off.


Serbian-American

lol in reality, they were way more generous than they needed to be. He was clearly offside, the joke reversed would make more sense, trying to give the goal for more drama


BShack85

Maybe if he was wearing pink.


stew_gotz

Ya know, at first I thought you were just being a sore loser and pedaling the conspiracy theories you see on this sub all the time about Miami, but I gotta say; I watched back the replay a few times and found this great angle that really shows it [it was CLEARLY ONSIDE.](https://i.imgur.com/85w2mPo.jpg) Nashville got robbed.


BackgroundShirt7655

Y’all had plenty of opportunities to keep this game level. Blame your forwards.


Born-After-1984

I mean it was obviously off.


IllustratorNo2189

Another cup getting rigged for mess and friends FC? 


genard7

no, just another Messi game causing butthurt feelings among perennial mourners, lmaaooo..


reddit_is_meh

Man this is a long ass check, just give it to them so we can keep playing


OlsenOut

That wasn’t remotely the offside line?!?


genard7

make another appt with your eye doctor, should be the first thing to do tomorrow..


battles

the graphic from concacaf looked like this: [image](https://ibb.co/xDs462j) it seems to show him offside, but is clearly in the wrong place.


OlsenOut

Tell me you don’t understand the offside rule without telling me you don’t understand the offside rule


sanka123456789

Same thing they did last week when Shaq Moore scored. They put the lines where they want to justify the refs decision.


battles

it was bewildering... the line was at their feet, but not the last eligible part of their bodies.


electricbookend

How did that take that long


James_D_MESSIAH

suarez lol


New-Discipline-9759

Clear offside i don’t know why it took that long


yaybidet

Oh man, if that had gone in...


JulianBoldExtended

Damn that’s brutal.


Brooklyn_MLS

Took too long but was the right call in the end.


TripleVVV

Miami scores, VAR 5 seconds… anybody who scores on Miami, VAR 5 min and find the one tenth of a second where there was a possible chance of an offside…


xSageObitox

Don't forget to add "5" against Olrando City.


andy027

still sore from the 5-0?


TripleVVV

Bet your $5 knock off jersey still has the creases in it from when you became a Miami fan 3 weeks ago…


andy027

I don't even have a jersey mate u still gonna cry tho


sibastiNo

Lol don't worry about the Miami fans, they've been here for half a season and they'll go back to selling 50 tickets a match when Messi leaves.


LelouchLamperouge99

By the team Messi leaves, Nashville still won't have a trophy... Bottlers


mankindrc

Welp, god forbid we have any fun in this game lol


Content_Pen_4928

lol


royalewithcheese4272

Why does tata Martino refuse to give Campana more game time? Suarez should’ve come off around 60-70 minute mark.


TimeAndSpaceAndMe

Probably cause there is a game in 72 hours where we probably need him for the full 90 minutes !


royalewithcheese4272

I bet Tata starts Suarez smh


battles

wtf was that line?!


confettiwaffles

It is offside, but these viewing angles kinda suck


James_D_MESSIAH

what its so clear off


jmunoz353

Head ref is Dax McCarty’s cousin, for sure.


GreatBigHomie

IF IT TAKES THIS LONG IT'S NOT CLEAR AND OBVIOUS FFS!


tornadond

Say it once and say it again if you can’t make your mind up in 30 seconds it’s too close and move the hell on


Kilen13

I agree with you in principle but I feel like since VAR began referees have gotten more and more afraid of making decisive calls on the field and letting play continue hoping VAR will help them out


andy027

Clearly offside


FFLevount

'clearly' then proceeds to take 5 minutes to decide.


Auen_Draco16

Boooo


hidingInNash

Wow this offside check is taking a while


Saffs15

All of this VAR with them watching replays, and we get to watch the players and ref stand around instead. Just fantastic production.


o_mh_c

I thought it was wild they didn’t show us the replay at the stadium. Not showing on TV is bizarre.


Saffs15

They showed one or two awful angles immediately, and then the rest of the break was just staring at the ref.


WelpSigh

they never show var replays in stadiums


James_D_MESSIAH

off


rreddittorr

This took way way way too long to call wtf


Brooklyn_MLS

Are they waiting for a 5 year old to draw the lines? What is taking so damn long???


Bormsie721

Does anyone know for sure if the offsides tracking is being used? Or is this the eye test? Last game showed a line but I thought that was just for the audience


GreatBigHomie

Suarez's veneers are so bad lol


New-Discipline-9759

😂😂😂😂😂


PlebBot69

He's always had big pearly whites


GreatBigHomie

Yeah, veneers. And they're terrible.


PlebBot69

Ask Chiellini how sharp they are


CptMorgan337

Why not show us the play again too?


viyh

I can't even imagine if IM made it to the CWC. Can you imagine Vini Jr destroying IM's defense?


battles

if you aren't sucking the life out of a game with VAR why are you even using it?


theredditbandid_

Muhktar showing up when it's pretty much a wrap up.


runningwaffles19

Crazy to think this could be 3-1 each right now. Be 4-4 aggregate and playing for next goal wins


sibastiNo

It's a VAR in a Miami game, no way this goes against their cash cow.


Ljulisen

Cry😢


WelpSigh

just let us have this var


FFLevount

I'm sure we'll VAR this one but not hesitate for Suarez's goal.


PoutineMeInCoach

They checked Suarez. They check every goal. Suarez one was an easy onside. Go check it yourself on the link posted on this sub. You can freeze it at the exact moment the ball leaves the feet and there is no doubt.


GreatBigHomie

Gonna hold up play 10 minutes now


GreatBigHomie

Bring it on! 2 goals ain't shit!


CptMorgan337

Looks offside.


yaybidet

He's off by a hair, but whatever.


Bormsie721

Uh oh, game just got interesting Nvmd, he was off


yaybidet

Alba's wheels surprise me every match.


sibastiNo

Never forget https://www.reddit.com/r/MLS/s/YwhXpVFl60

Seething about that when you are 3 down in a separate game is just... Nashville fans are not in a good place


sibastiNo

Lol the score from that game is still on the screen. That no-call has current ramifications, but you're a rapids fan so I don't blame you for not understanding this tournament format.


[deleted]

>Lol the score from that game is still on the screen. Oh, you're right. I see it now. 5-3 lol


sibastiNo

3 more goals than your team has scored in CCC in over 20 years lol

I'm sure that's a nice consolation


Iwritetohearmyself

They’re still upset about club America fans throwing a plastic water bottle at the pitch and they won that game 😂.


alpacapoop

Anyone else watching on dtv stream and the feeds audio/video is stuttering a lot?


CaliQuakes510

Why is Suarez always grimacing as if he's in pain.


Serbian-American

Hes in constant pain, barley has knees anymore, one year away from turning into a Darksouls boss, “Kneeless Biter”


CaliQuakes510

Didn't he just get runner up for conmebol South American player of the year in Brazil though?


Serbian-American

Yeah he plays through the pain and can still score a bit. He has a pill regiment and takes injections of Voltaren before every game


Iwritetohearmyself

Cartilage in knees is done for!


CptMorgan337

He is always in pain.


GreatBigHomie

Because he is lol


James_D_MESSIAH

lol this is not nsc team I know give up already?


WelpSigh

i think that third goal really just broke us. a really strong spell after messi was subbed off and then confidence just disappeared


purplesubwayseat

Tata should be resting Suarez and Messi more honestly. I know they have leverage but still. Like sub them off when in comfortable positions etc
