I’ve tried to be understanding about the RED CARD OUTRAGE, and certainly this isn’t a red card every time, but it remains not one to flip out about: slide starts after the ball is gone, Adewole’s body goes through Tribbett’s plant leg. It’s like 60/40 yellow/red.This backheel would have been kinda tight.Belmar can’t quite get the ball under him quickly enough to get off a legit shot.thisclosePerhaps King should have shot… Moloto definitely should have done better though (the closeup makes it look like he thought the ball wouldn’t get past Brett. He actually could have taken his time and basically walked it in.Morton with one of his impressive saves.This was wider of frame than this angle makes it look (you can see that the bounce basically happens level with the post), but still a dangerous moment.Man. Ríos probably thought he’d already scored, and he didn’t bother to place it.Juuuuust a bit high.Ríos was trying to draw the pen here (and had a fair shout – he basically got run through by Greenspan), but probably could have kept his feet and had an offensive chance, too. Without the deflection – it resulted in a corner kick – this might have found the corner. It grazed the post as it was.Saved by the calf.Winn probably has to get something on frame (even after the heavy touch), but I have no idea what Moloto’s doing off-ball either. Get in a shooting position, not a crossing position, bro.Another close penalty call. If Adewole hadn’t been red-carded, one of these would have been called.Most impressive play of the night from Winn.
