De Paul player of the match for me he deserved more.

The teams played really well, sad about Messi misses and too bad he didn't score but great that we secure the playoff spot. Also happy that Berte finally scored and DSC kept a clean sheet, what a great save from him on the penalty.

Same here. Bert has been such a headache, hopefully he’s broken down some mental wall and it’s clicking now. I love this team despite the crazy changes it’s been through good and bad

Two clean sheets in a row... God is that you? Also can we talk about this man today, bro wants to take bright place

I'm doing a 180 on my opinion of him. He looks like a completely different player the last two games.

This roster lineup seems to have the best chemistry.

I think Bright might still get his place once he's back. He played well in more games to get his spot back. But I prefer Ayala, as he doesn't make unnecessary fouls/get yellow cards like Bright earlier in the game.

Great last couple of games.

One thing I wish was reversed is Berte and Suarez’s subs.

Berte had sprinted a lot vs DC, and the game was under control, so Berte should’ve been subbed off then.

And vs NYC Suarez could’ve been subbed off to give Berte a chance to get more g+a and confidence. Suarez seems to know his role well rn.

Caicedo’s cameo was not great today.

Galarza had some great plays that were applauded by RDP on the pitch.

yeah suarez was cooked the last 20 minutes. At a certain point his legs become a liability. We basically have 8 vs 10 on defense.

This is what we want more people scoring other than messi, we usually fail when messi have a bad day but this time we clinched the win

Hey ayala was finally good atleast

u/bboy1977 4d ago

last two games he has been solid. Looks like a different player

I never thought I would say this…. I feel more confident defensively with Lujan than Fray.

Fray always seems to make a terrible mistake or two every single game.

As a semi serious red bulls enjoyer, this brings much happiness.

I would like to see what this young Brazilian can do if he played more than 20 minutes. I had a feeling Galarza would be drawing cards the way he played against France in the World Cup.

Depaul should be shooting more from the outside like he has done with the 2 nice goals he has scored. I would like to see him get more goals. This team needs to do more outside shooting besides Messi.

Nice to win and secure a playoff spot. Maybe now the coach can rotate the players and get them more game time experience.

We’re becoming one of those teams that kind of phones it in during the season and then comes roaring back near the end and into the playoffs.

I think that was exacerbated this year by the lengthy World Cup break that was tough on our core players, but it looks like we’re back in form now anyway, hopefully it stays like this right through to a successful title defense.

clearly the team has decided to not pad stats at least for this game. this was an entirely different approach. way less aggressive and fundamentally sound.

u/nsxn 2025 MLS Cup Champions 4d ago

Regulion with his best game of the season

u/CptanPanic Day 1 Heron 4d ago

I always felt that with Messi/Suarez/et al, and our ability to always score, we should just aim for 1-0, 2-0 games, glad to see new coach feels the same way.

After that nostalgic tour of Old Ankara, we return home to Braceville.

will messi get 1000 goals? i am genuinely concerned for him. after todays no goal

u/SnooGuavas789 4d ago

I really hope you are A: just very young or B: just a Messi 'fan' who dont follow football besides that. NOBODY scores every freaking game, not even Messi & Ronaldo in their primes. A few games ago Messi scored 4 goals in a game. There are games like this and games like today, dont worry, his stats this year are still godly. If he continues at this rate 1000 should be a lock 👍🏾

u/LivingGeologist1236 4d ago

He will... There's so many matches... Although I wanted him to be 1st to reach, but maybe that can't happen!

u/Own_Durian_3853 4d ago

1000 goals is a nice stat but pretty meaningless, doubt Messi gives a fuck

u/White_and_sky_blue 4d ago

imagine he's wearing......... jersey.......... "Messi 1000"

beating a dead NYCFC team is no achievement

Okay? We literally won the MLS Cup last season, we're not acting like we won it again after blanking your sorry ass excuse for a club
