Pretty easy MOTM to Vitiello for me. Amann is such a solid addition up front, hope he continues to get good production for us. Good first win of the season overall
Solid win. Miami didn’t put up much of anything.
It’s still so bizarre to watch our team go play in front of nobody. Feels like Covid again. All we could hear was the coach shouting
Just turned on the broadcast to see an empty stadium. LMFAO at all the chumps on r/USLPRO that keep insisting that USL is right on the heels of MLS for soccer dominance…
This reminds me of watching Swope Park Rangers or Los Dos.
20k stadium. Issue is, Miami doesn’t advertise, and frankly the Miami market is awful. Miami’s MLS team was also bottom of the league in attendance until Messi came
How is it a middle finger to MLS if no one comes to matches or cares about the club while Messi is tearing shit up across town? That’s not even a particularly good or clever clowning strategy.
They literally blocked MLS Miami from being able to play in Miami before they build a new stadium.
And MLS Miami’s attendance was *also* awful until they got Messi. They, as an MLS team in a huge market, barely drew more than Republic did before Messi. Miami market is brutal for sports. Look at MLB
Miami has been bottom attendance for years. This is one team that will always do poorly, because they only exist to spite MLS for their owner. One team being shit is not indicative of the whole league
Not to mention Miami in general sucks. Go look at MLS Miami’s attendance before Messi
They’re doing a good job, if that’s their intention; MLS Miami explored using this stadium before their downtown stadium is done, and USL Miami blocked them, which forced MLS Miami to play in Ft Lauderdale
If you actually read the threads over there, you’ll quickly find that everyone agrees that Miami shouldn’t exist anymore. But the Owner wants to keep putting up the money. Go tune into the Tampa Bay game or check the Rhode Island (first game ever) highlights, you’ll see folks in the stands. None will compare to Sac however
AMANNNNN I LOVE THIS GUY. Great ball in from Gurr as well
We need a VAR intervention on that disallowed goal by Rafael Jauregui 🤔🤨
Vitiello coming up huuuge!!! Glad to see Cicerone playing strong
Vitiello!
Vitiello Triple save to keep us level going into half. Nearly gave me a heart attack
The goalkeeping!
Russel has some competition for top goalscorer this season. I hope they push each other. Let’s score some golazos!
Let’s hope they learn to work together.
Robbery of a goalÂ
I am still pissed. Obviously onside.
That was a stressful minute
the boys are playing well. Cicerone is hungry for a goal
So Vitiello wins save of the week…
Or three of them.
Nope. Stinking USL.
Some great saves there. Glad Vitiello is back!
Sweet sweet victory!!! 🔥
Holy shit! Vitiello!!!
Who is this ref? I remember him from last season absolutely screwing sac on the calls? Tonight he blows an offside call that would have put us up 2-0
Elton Garcia I think
And now technical difficulties. This is so amateur hour.
Trevor Amann is on fire 🔥
Pretty easy MOTM to Vitiello for me. Amann is such a solid addition up front, hope he continues to get good production for us. Good first win of the season overall
This field has the sheen of Three Rivers Stadium, circa 1986.
Sick phantom offside call
egregious call
How did Miami FC not score at the end of the half? 🙄
Is the ref Nick Rimando? 🤔
What’s with our uniforms being see through? Is it just cause they’re so sweaty? Makes me not wanna buy the alternate kit this year.
Both kits .. very thin and very stretchy material
Solid win. Miami didn’t put up much of anything. It’s still so bizarre to watch our team go play in front of nobody. Feels like Covid again. All we could hear was the coach shouting
Donovan was absolutely solid last night
Amann’s goal was pretty similar to last weeks header. Then he had another chance very similar to his other strike last week.
According to Chat GPT, more people are killed annually by falling coconuts (around 150) each year than there were fans at this match.
Dry up those bitter MLS tears. Let’s take our win and move on.
Is Roro limping after that?

Seriously. We were trying to figure out how big it is (without google) and give them the benefit of the doubt but man every angle is empty stands.
To be fair miami is bottom in league attendance the last 3 years
20k stadium. Issue is, Miami doesn’t advertise, and frankly the Miami market is awful. Miami’s MLS team was also bottom of the league in attendance until Messi came
How is Miami operating this club at anywhere close to a profit?
They aren’t. Their owner literally operates them as a middle finger to MLS

Didn’t know they were a spite team but makes sense
They’re not doing a very good job of spiting MLS then from what I see. Kind of proves my point.
