Ok, fews good points few bad and a total WTF point with play on the pitch.  RSL looked pretty good, Olave handled Ching and between Borchers and Wingert, De Rosario was shut out too.

With the offense, I noticed that it seemed the team has become obsessed with getting that perfect shot.  There were plenty of times that a driven volley or one timer was open.  What that opens up, even if the shot isn't on target is rebounds which are a great way to catch a keeper out of position.  For example, when Beckerman had a wide open shot thanks to Findley catching Onstad off his line and out of position, instead of just shooting and putting it in, he played with it, which allowed enough time for the defense to get back and clear the ball off the line.  Drive the shot, score the goal. 

As for the crowd, I don't know what to think sometimes.  The dynamic between RCB and the FCB and add in the surrounding crowd and it's not a good thing.  I don't really know what to think, to those who were rightly offended, I apologize, too many were out of line and too many don't understand where the line is.  I can't wait until we will be the ones who have control over our section. 

Now as for Wingert's red, totally warranted because he was dumb enough to retaliate.  I just hope the league does the right thing and suspects all involved.
