Soccer can be so cruel. Real dominated the first half. Yura gets pulled down in the box, no call. Findley has a break away, and due to a terrible touch, doesn't even get a shot off. Columbus gets a couple lucky breaks and nets 2 goals. Game over.

re: Cam

Bad calls and lucky breaks? Sounds like the whining of a typical sports fan from the state of Utah.

5 years of "just one of those days."
Kreis, don't you get tired of giving those excuses!
Why is that Houston does has luck like RSL?
How about Seattle or even LA?
What good is controlling the first half if you let them have all the luck and good bounces?!?

T-ravis

It should have been a 2-2 game. The Crew's second goal should have disallowed because of a hand ball. And we would have had an earlier goal if it weren't for Mov-miss-yan blowing another easy chance. Cox's goal was brilliant. Give him some more playing time.

Second goal

I wasn't able to watch the game, so I'm only going off of the highlights, but on the second Columbus goal, it looked like Rimando might have gotten elbowed in the head by one of the Columbus players. Of course, it also may just have been Rimando acting. Did anyone get a better look than me?

Olave

Get rid of him already!

Campos = assist

He is probably now tied with alot of our guys.

I'm excited by his potential.

Game-on

Yura-peon was tripped in the box, which should have been a PK.

Then RSL deserved to be scored against when Olave muffed a clearance.

Then Cowbus striker plays Rimando instead of the ball and elbowed Rimando in the face. It should not have resulted in a goal.

When you get beat by the refs, it is hard to win.
