I had to DVR both the DC United and Houston Dynamo Champions Cup games earlier this week. That in itself was not a problem, but:
Before watching the Dynamo game, I had Fox Soccer Channel on watching FA Cup highlights I think. I see on the bottom of the screen ticker that the Dynamo lost. Dammit, but I watched anyway. I fell asleep and missed most of the 2nd half. What was up with the red cards there, anyone? And was that PK one of the least deserved PK’s you’ve seen in a long time?
Then last nite I was online playing some poker and my dad rang me up on IM. I sent him the message that I was about to watch the DC United game and to not tell me the results at almost exactly the same time his message showed up “good win for DC huh!”. Dammit dammit dammit, but I watched still. Good job DC. They didn’t look overly great, but I guess scoring 4 goals on the road is pretty damm good. I wish I could place shots like Gomez was, those were quite nice!
Overall I think both teams will advance to the semi-finals. I’m not sure if they could possibly play each other in the semi’s, but that would really be great if both MLS teams went to the final. DC would really have to screw up to not get into the semi’s.
Oh, and FYI those of you who did not see the games:
DC United 4 – 1 CD Olimpia
Houston Dynamo 0 – 1 Puntarenas
