Mexico v. United Sates of America (Saturday) In the past I have had confidence that the U.S. holds the upper hand in any match against Mexico held on U.S. soil- friendly or competitive. This time around that confidence is gone- long gone. While the U.S. has done what it needed to do after starting off [...]

New England Revolution v. Chicago Fire S.C. (Saturday) Impotent. That’s really the only word to describe the Revolution’s offense. While they dominated their midweek match against Toronto, they never really came close to scoring. The 0-0 draw leaves New England with 11 goals from 15 matches- dead last in all of MLS. The draw also [...]

New England Revolution v. New York Red Bulls (Friday) Apparently the Revs are still in the market for an attacking Designated Player, but that won’t happen until the transfer window opens at the end of the month.

Ross County F.C. v. Cowdenbeath FC (Saturday) It’s time. Last season- as exciting and successful as it was in so many ways- is now in the past and it’s up to the Staggies to deliver the goods if they want to repeat/improve upon last year’s results. County moved through the preseason and their first to [...]

UN Käerjéng 97 v. CS Oberkorn (Friday) I may be guilty of a lot of things, but skipping the final match of the season in Luxembourg? I don’t think so!
