Go Caps, sorry I can't be in Portland with the boys. And I am not going to watch, have a thing called work early AM Monday.

Hoping to wake up finalist.

It sounds like both games (Swangard and Portland) were great with top atmosphere. Some MLS types must be sitting back in relief that Vancouver and Portland were the last two standing in the expansion stakes. I'll most definitely be watching the first leg on SlingBox, but I'll be at work during the second leg. Hopefully, the 'Caps will have it wrapped up in the first leg.

That was a wild game for sure, but congrats to the Whitecaps and their fans, and good luck in the final and keep the Cup in Cascadia for the fifth straight year!

Hey Allison. Too bad about your defender getting injured. It really showed. You were just not the same team without him. Like the song goes "2 out of 3 ain't bad". I know you and the army were looking for the triple play but maybe next year.

What a game. I'm still excited. A complete roller coaster ride for both sets of fans. These 2 teams play a very exciting style of soccer this year. We'll do our best to make Montreal's year suck at the finish ;)

Can't wait for both to get into MLS.

Cheers

What a game! Absolute great soccer. I was bored with the PR-MI game but this one was a rollercoster ride that I loved.

An all Canadian final and both games on grass!

Caps for the win in both games against Montreal! [8D]

Wild match.

Swear to Gawd I thought Portland might pull out a win at the end.

Other than that one which Cronin made a hash of great goals from start to finish and as entertaining a match as you could ask for.

Bit off topic but I'm increasingly of the opinion that FIFA should add one more sub to the current allowance. I know USL uses the increased allowance to compensate for the crazy scheduling that occurs in the leagues at times but honestly, if you want to keep a match fresh and competitive to the final whistle it's surprising how much difference that extra body can add to the overall quality of those last few minutes.

Was anyone able to make a recording of this game? I wasn't able to catch it, and from the sounds of things, it was a match not to have missed! (bloody hell!)

I have a recording on my PVR if you need.
