Morning everyone. Yesterday, we had a ton of soccer, from Champions League to Copa Libertadores to Loudoun United. Also, #DCSports happened last night as the Washington Nationals won their wild card game. This means that Game 3 of the NLDS will occur at Nationals Park on Sunday, the same day as D.C. United’s final regular season match against FC Cincinnati. Make sure you get down to Audi Field early. Bummer that the Washington Mystics lost Game 2 of the WNBA Finals last night, but the series is tied 1-1. Let’s hope that Elena Della Donne is okay.

CONCACAF competition holding United States and Mexico back - Jurgen Klinsmann | ESPNFC
So, I’m going to go ahead and say it: CONCACAF Nations League is the greatest. soccer. competition. in. the. world. I can’t wait for the match at Audi Field next week for the United States Men’s National Team to get started. Jurgen is wrong, but he’s also just fueling the snarky, pessimistic fans that never have anything good to say about the MNT.
