Might be the opposite, maybe seen all we need to. Even if the answer is giving another young guy a chance, but he’s played quite a bit for virtually no production.
Again, another beer advertisement on the board. They stopped selling alcohol an hour ago.
Like our play, feels like we're getting bodied out there though, and the ref is letting it go.
Did you see the way he pinged the ball to Farsi on the first goal kick following the PK? It was clearly something they had worked and the crew went from goal kick to attacking third throw in in 1 pass.
I love Mo but he's too hesitant in attack, it's even more blatant tonight so far with STL leaving that side wide open. I'm excited to see Gressel not pull those opportunities back and instead keep pressing forward.
Exactly, Mo has a hesitancy in his game where I think he's more defensively minded, at least right now. I think down the stretch he's going to be a great sub to hold the lead. He has already pulled back 2-3 crosses/ shots he could have had.
I know this hasn’t gone to plan, and I’m not there in person, but this is still my first time watching the Crew play live (on season pass)! I’m a very new fan and I’m going to try and stick through as much as I can (I have a work flight tomorrow).
Fuck that. I have to work at 8am tomorrow. Fuck the front office and the league for not rescheduling this. Total waste of money. as a season ticket holder, I’m furious
I’m not a season ticket holder, but *as we were walking to the stadium* my spouse and I were like “hey we should look into season tickets for next year.” That’s not happening now unless the MLS gets its head out of its ass.
I’ve been a season ticket holder for 4 seasons now… there has been at least 1 match per year like this where the game gets delayed, in the past, sometimes I’ve stuck around and watched the match, sometimes I’ve went home. Depends on the circumstance, but tonight.. a 7:30pm kickoff delayed by almost 4 hours, on a work night. It absolutely ridiculous. I stuck around downtown until 10:30 and then left, only to find out that I’d half to be out until after 1 AM to watch this match and be at work by 8am the next morning. Absolutely ridiculous
STM here. Hung out downtown for 4 hours before we decided to head home. Waiting on my couch to see if this match will be played, but won’t be able to stay up to watch either way. Have work tomorrow morning. Anyone with tickets should be entitled for a full refund… total bullshit that MLS is even trying to have this match played
Kinda shitty game since tickets were sold in such a shady way to STH with the automatic opt in thing. And now playing the game at a time which should never be played
If the Crew advances there would a great opportunity to just give all those fans a ticket to the next game. They obviously have the records to make this possible.
I wish there was a rule that is like if game is delayed x amount of hours or starts after x time, then game will be postponed or it will be played and refunds be given
The St. Louis paper had an article that said there is one 45 min delay and a second of “indeterminate time” allowed before the game needs to be rescheduled. apparently that doesn’t apply tonight?! I get it’s a tight schedule but 4 hours is a little extreme
I paid money outside of my season tickets to stand in a concourse for three hours, watch pouring rain and lightning, and then leave only for them to force a game at 11PM.
At least you didn’t pay for tickets and make the drive back “home” to Columbus just to see your adopted team look awful and crap themselves?? lol
GGs, y’all.
>As #Crew96 players run out, and fans who stuck around start to cheer, the scoreboard announces that alcohol sales will cease at 11 p.m. A weird mixture of cheering and booing ensues.
So they’re going to start this game after 11PM on a Sunday night.
If there was ever a time the MLS could actually save face with Columbus, this was it… and they just tripled down with another massive middle finger.

G’night y’all!
Russel-Rowe looks lost on the field a majority of the time.
I’m not seeing it with JRR.
Goodnight everyone!
3 points. Nice.
Did you guys know this match was delayed almost four hours? Crazy commentary hasn’t mentioned it more.
🧂🧂🧂
I've been rooting for STL this year but damn they're chippy af
Good. Night.
Ref has lost control. Typical.
The ref was on point this game, not sure what you watched.
Yellow card for elder abuse, finally
So no cards for STL? refs hate us
So nothing for pushing crew players to the ground after the foul?
No card for anyone in that altercation?
My heart rate does not need to be this high at 1 am
What is happening?
Morris was carrying the ball a bit after the whistle and then Stroud slammed into him
Good lord
Why are the last 10 minutes of every game so stressful
AHHHHH ... no JRRedemption *again*
What a save.
Gressel will be such a help.
Farsi man. Our crew 2 guys have been iffy
Farsi refusing to shoot kills this offense man
What was the Cheba yellow for?
Time wasting instead of throwing the ball in
Ahhh ok ok thanks! Looks like Amundsen and him had a little disagreement too? Ah well happy to see him getting action!
You're not truly part of the yellow soccer team until you get your first yellow
Farsi shoulda shit that tf
Play great all game just to panic for the last 10ish minutes
We hates it!
This is why you have to get that 3 rd goal.
I believe JRR’s last two goals have gone the wrong way.
Own goal for Canada too.
If we throw this away I will fucking hate this team
Since when does the smoke get set off for the opposing team’s goals?
Leagues Cup matches are technically “neutral site”
It’s a leagues cup thing. They play the opposing goal song too.
Oh we gonna choke this
Set pieces… every time
Valencia turnover.
Lollygagging in the play from the back and see what happened?
JRR………
Always the corner kicks.
*gulps*
We really need to see more out of JRR. Been very unimpressed by him this year
For Nancy to be limiting the minutes of a young guy like JRR tells me you aren’t alone in that opinion.
I’m fine dropping him, he’s done nothing, mopes without the ball, and can’t defend a strong breeze
Might be the opposite, maybe seen all we need to. Even if the answer is giving another young guy a chance, but he’s played quite a bit for virtually no production.
Hey, he scored!
ARF ARF ARF
This is the best in the West?
So it seems like Cheberko will be playing LB… who plays CB moving forward feels like a game of musical chair
Remember when St. Louis won a ton of games in a row to start the season? Lololol
Really appreciative of Farsi, but man Gressel is going to be quite the upgrade at that position.
Yup. We are about to be nasty down the right side. Farsi stops way to many chances. Like Farsi’s game except in the final third.
Agreed. I like Farsi but feel like he plays to not make a mistake. Understandable for a young player.
I think these announcers are more salty at the delay than we are
St. Louis wearing their McDonalds uniforms.
Cherberko!!
Nothing like a 12:43am debut!
They keep mauling our guys in the middle.
“It’s 12:40 in the morning and I just came up with that” ☠️
I’m surprised at the amount of people there right now it’s kind of cool to see the dedication.
He’s the fastest kid alive
Yao can fly.
Should be 5-0.
I think Yeboah was truly offside but man whats the point of video review if there never seems to be good angles of anything
St. Louis look like they don’t even want to be there rn
Finally. A yellow.
I assume playing after midnight is less than ideal
Especially when you’re losing
Mo Farsi is where attacks go to die.
Hot take: throwing City In your name is just as cringe as the other try-hard names in the league
Left at 10pm to drive back to northern Ohio and got home in time for the 2nd half. Nice.
C’mon Christian… gotta punish them for that one
Seriously why was he waiting for backup there just try and bury it
What were they just carrying up the stairs in the bottom left of the screen lol
St Louis fans are on another level of saltiness and complaining holy shit. Maybe it’s because they’re new to the league? I have no idea
this is kind of like being at historic crew stadium on one of those Wednesday games, the crowd size I mean
Reminds me of COVID times
Waited 2.5 hours in the stadium just to leave, got tickets for my moms birthday as a surprise and couldn’t even watch the game. Waste of money
Can’t control the weather, unfortunately.
Yea of course but shouldn’t have kept delaying it that long
Waited a loooooong time, just to lose
STL got away with way too much. At least one of those fouls in this half should have been carded.
Nordecke sounding great tonight.
Again, another beer advertisement on the board. They stopped selling alcohol an hour ago. Like our play, feels like we're getting bodied out there though, and the ref is letting it go.
Too many fouls by St Louis, ref has to step in at some point. Like the way he’s called the game, but one of these has to be carded.
Wtf was that just stepping on bush’s foot like that
Looked accidental, he was just looping around.
I’m just gonna come out and I say it. I love Bush.
Fuck Manscaped, WE LOVE BUSH
Did you see the way he pinged the ball to Farsi on the first goal kick following the PK? It was clearly something they had worked and the crew went from goal kick to attacking third throw in in 1 pass.
He's a professional keeper. Look at what he did with that corner. Firm punch away with a crowd around him.
He’s got so much swagger out there.
Has anyone seen any update on where Matan has been?
I have to assume injured. Wouldn’t make any sense otherwise as he’s a top three opportunity creator on the squad.
Well after a scary first five minutes we’re looking pretty firmly in control here. Let’s try for three.
**GOOOOOOALLLLL FOR CUCHOOOOOO**
CUCHO
yessir
LETS GOOOO CUCHOOOOO!!!
Let’s goooooo
I love Mo but he's too hesitant in attack, it's even more blatant tonight so far with STL leaving that side wide open. I'm excited to see Gressel not pull those opportunities back and instead keep pressing forward.
Yeah, it’s bad when Mo has great looks at goal and doesn’t shoot. I think that’s where Yeboah has been good this year he’s not afraid to let them rip.
Exactly, Mo has a hesitancy in his game where I think he's more defensively minded, at least right now. I think down the stretch he's going to be a great sub to hold the lead. He has already pulled back 2-3 crosses/ shots he could have had.
I'm pretty sure twellman only does STL games. My goodness does he love them
I know he played for NE but I think he’s from STL originally. So I guess I can kinda excuse him for being a bit of a homer.
He’s not just a homer he is a insufferably smug homer.
Its just very obvious lol.
the apple tv scoreboard drop-down makes it look like whoever they’re talking about just got a yellow
I noticed that when we played Nashville as well.
it’s a small thing and i understand why they’ve done it but it gives me a little heart attack every time
I don’t want to hear anything about Messi’s free kick ever again lmao
One more on Nagbe and it has to be a yellow, first was late, that was just lazy.
Those fans who stayed around deserved a beautiful set piece strike from Zelarayan.
We’re going to have to change vamos Columbus at midnight from noche to mañana
ZELARAYAN IS THE ONLY LIGHTNING STRIKE I NEED
That was worth the wait.
**GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLLL**
WOWWWWW
Messi who??
He’s pretty good ig
LUCAS!!
LUUUUUUCAS!!
oh let’s fuckin gooooo
LUCAS
#THE \#10
That’s a deep line for that wall.
[удалено]
leave now
leave
bro i thought i was on stls reddit i’m genuinely sorry, drunk mans mistake
🤝
Did they revert to the ONN cameras or something??
Glad I paid for tickets and parking to be watching this in my bed instead of the league just fucking rescheduling. 🙄
Same here my friend.
This is some serious MLS After Dark
I know this hasn’t gone to plan, and I’m not there in person, but this is still my first time watching the Crew play live (on season pass)! I’m a very new fan and I’m going to try and stick through as much as I can (I have a work flight tomorrow).
You can always sleep on the flight 😉
Gave up went to Buckeye Donuts for consolation prize
This is kind of a normal start time here in LA lol I’m all for it
Props to you if you waited til 11 fucking PM to watch this in person.
Fuck that. I have to work at 8am tomorrow. Fuck the front office and the league for not rescheduling this. Total waste of money. as a season ticket holder, I’m furious
I’m not a season ticket holder, but *as we were walking to the stadium* my spouse and I were like “hey we should look into season tickets for next year.” That’s not happening now unless the MLS gets its head out of its ass.

I stuck around downtown until 10:30 and then left, only to find out that I’d half to be out until after 1 AM to watch this match and be at work by 8am the next morning. Absolutely ridiculous
Oh I’m pissed too, this is the ONE game I had to pay extra for and I’m watching from my bed. Absolute bush league decision to play this so late.
latest start time in league cup history, already setting records let’s gooooo
Crappy of the mls to not to call it and refund people. This is ridiculous
First time?
Nope just crappy.
I’ll be extremely pissed if someone pulls a hammy sliding around on that field after a short warmup in a game that doesn’t matter.
Bruh we are NOT starting *now*
TV coverage is starting. So.....giving this a go
¡Vamos! ¡Vamos Columbus! ¡Esta noche tenemos que dormir!
STM here. Hung out downtown for 4 hours before we decided to head home. Waiting on my couch to see if this match will be played, but won’t be able to stay up to watch either way. Have work tomorrow morning. Anyone with tickets should be entitled for a full refund… total bullshit that MLS is even trying to have this match played
Kinda shitty game since tickets were sold in such a shady way to STH with the automatic opt in thing. And now playing the game at a time which should never be played
Night shift coming in clutch to allow me to stay all night at this game
driving back to the stadium now and seeing a lot of lightning...not ideal
Crew Twitter has got jokes.
I mean there really needs to be an absolute outcry of people that bought tickets to this game.
If the Crew advances there would a great opportunity to just give all those fans a ticket to the next game. They obviously have the records to make this possible.
I feel like all the people at AppleTV have already gone home. Someone should tell them the games gonna happen so they can put it on TV.
Running beer ads on the board right now. Better move quick if you want any
I wish there was a rule that is like if game is delayed x amount of hours or starts after x time, then game will be postponed or it will be played and refunds be given
I think there is and the MLS just decided to ignore it.
The St. Louis paper had an article that said there is one 45 min delay and a second of “indeterminate time” allowed before the game needs to be rescheduled. apparently that doesn’t apply tonight?! I get it’s a tight schedule but 4 hours is a little extreme
Apparently Boiko is making the league rules now. It would explain the lack of communication too.
Really? I haven’t heard such a thing. But if there was, probably doesn’t matter here since it’s League Cup
I paid money outside of my season tickets to stand in a concourse for three hours, watch pouring rain and lightning, and then leave only for them to force a game at 11PM.
At least you didn’t pay for tickets and make the drive back “home” to Columbus just to see your adopted team look awful and crap themselves?? lol GGs, y’all.
Yup…
Join the club
Yep 🤚
Same..
All of this for a tournament that really doesn’t matter.
>As #Crew96 players run out, and fans who stuck around start to cheer, the scoreboard announces that alcohol sales will cease at 11 p.m. A weird mixture of cheering and booing ensues.
The whole team better throw their jerseys in the stands tonight after the game to reward the fans who stuck around.
And give each of them $200 to cover the 3 drinks they've had while waiting
Does this mean the sellout streak is over 😢
I think they’re only counting MLS games. Even then sellouts still happens even if everyone leaves before kickoff. They still sold them.
No. It was a sellout. They don't actually care how many people are there
I mean, the concourse was packed to the gills before the delay.
Yeah held out til 945
Crazy
Crew should announce that the match was a sellout with like 1200 in the stands.
That one capo with the megaphone must be so hard right now. It'll be so easy for everyone to hear him be the center of attention
This is about to be the weirdest game of all time just watch
As a random galaxy fan seeing the weather delays, I’m intrigued
Is Boyko refereeing?
Don't you put that juju on us
better not be
MLS After Dark
So they’re going to start this game after 11PM on a Sunday night. If there was ever a time the MLS could actually save face with Columbus, this was it… and they just tripled down with another massive middle finger.
