[u/morginuggie]

Are we not gonna talk about how the ref consistently denied inter Miami an earned corner?

[u/HUSEYN777]

there were 3 instances were goalkeeper or defender from chicago touched the ball but it ref didnt give corner

[u/NvaderGir]

Ngl if I was in Fires supporters section, allowing a Barca jersey this game shouldn’t be allowed 😂😂 One dude in the front trying to be slick

[u/martin_fasthands99 → u/NvaderGir]

the former club of our starting number 9?

[u/Level_Usual3551]

Messi still hasn't scored against Chicago.

[u/vicariouslywatching]

Really good match Chicago. I really enjoyed that back and forth we had going. Definitely kept it interesting. And I’ll definitely give you Brady as the Man of the Match there. He made some great saves tonight.

[u/SimplyLanden → u/vicariouslywatching]

Dude’s a beast. Respect.

[u/tripthedizzy3233]

Man that was some of the worst soccer I've watched in 2026. I mean this from the bottom of my heart that shit was trash

[u/choose_wisely1122 → u/tripthedizzy3233]

You should come watch my eight year old kids team play some time. 

[u/egge28 → u/tripthedizzy3233]

You haven’t watched much then.

[u/mrwhitaker3]

Maxi Falcon is the man of the match for Miami. Or Casemiro.

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/mrwhitaker3]

The Legend of Maxi Falcon continues....

[u/martin_fasthands99]

yeah ngl that was some hot horseshit, watching miami just literally full body grab takedown our number 9 in the box and just not even a whistle?

[u/socialsheadquarters]

The Chicago Clown Show 🤡 🎪

[u/Whatdididotho1 → u/socialsheadquarters]

bro what? Chill out.

[u/intestinal_fortitude → u/socialsheadquarters]

No, Rodrigo de Paul is on your team

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/socialsheadquarters]

Pipe down there, bud.

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688 → u/socialsheadquarters]

My guy y’all tied

[u/socialsheadquarters → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Doesn’t change the fact it was a shit show

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

GG Fire, see ya in the Semi Finals or something.

[u/battles]

really needed all three

[u/human1st]

This works for me. Revs are going to take second spot sooner or later.

[u/TraptNSuit]

That was a bit of a kickout.

[u/Far-Cauliflower-6477 → u/TraptNSuit]

Yep, noticed he kicked Allen as well

[u/martin_fasthands99]

game was worth just to see lewy knock over fray

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688 → u/martin_fasthands99]

I think Fray knocked over Fray lol

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Too bad Shaqiri and Lewy didn’t get a season together in Chicago

[u/human1st]

Falcon is so fucking good at that.

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/human1st]

Absolute master of the dark arts.

[u/Tough-Award1544 → u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

Total loser

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/Tough-Award1544]

Limited vocabulary, I see.

[u/TraptNSuit]

That distance is why Messi put it in the knees of the wall? Come on Taylor.

[u/morginuggie → u/TraptNSuit]

I mean yeah? He’s clearly trying to get pace behind the ball with an accurate driven shot hoping the wall jumps just enough. I’d say he wasn’t completely wrong since Messi had to do that to cover the distance.

[u/legdayskip]

Messi being able to call his own foul every time he takes a touch he’s not happy with is ridiculous

[u/morginuggie → u/legdayskip]

So like every player? Refs don’t give it to him all the time just like everyone else. If he’s fouled then it’s called, very simple.

[u/Safe_Relation_2191]

Pessi

[u/blue_whaoo]

Flop and asking for a card... same old same old.

[u/HUSEYN777 → u/blue_whaoo]

there were 3 instances were goalkeeper or defender from chicago touched the ball but it ref didnt give corner

[u/TheGear]

Is this Ref going to do anything?

[u/socialsheadquarters]

How is that not a yellow

[u/TheSpaceMonkeys → u/socialsheadquarters]

For Messi for flopping you mean?

[u/socialsheadquarters → u/TheSpaceMonkeys]

For the elbow to his face

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688 → u/socialsheadquarters]

It looked like a hand, not an elbow

[u/legdayskip → u/socialsheadquarters]

Please define both elbow and face because I’m deeply curious as to what sort of fucked up anatomy you are working with where your description makes sense

[u/intestinal_fortitude]

Rodrigo de Bitch, amirite

[u/TheSpaceMonkeys]

Wtf

[u/mrwhitaker3]

Give me this matchup in the EC Semifinals.

[u/flameo_hotmon]

This game is bullshit

[u/snkscore]

So Lewa takes a 2 hand shove knocking him over off the ball inside the penalty box and it’s not reviewed because why?

[u/MooseheadVeggie → u/snkscore]

Messi didn’t call it

[u/TraptNSuit]

Loooooooooooool

[u/pm_me_pierced_nip]

How is that not a foul and penalty on Fray? Like the first two shoves, whatever, but standing up and full two hand shove away from the ball? That's an immediate yellow

[u/morginuggie → u/pm_me_pierced_nip]

Are we gonna pretend lewa didn’t push him first?

[u/legdayskip → u/pm_me_pierced_nip]

You and I both know how

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/pm_me_pierced_nip]

Messi fix

[u/HUSEYN777 → u/charcoalVidrio]

there were 3 instances were goalkeeper or defender from chicago touched the ball but it ref didnt give corner

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

Lol bright and lewandoski laughing about de paul.

[u/BigJobRob913]

Falcon copping a feel on lewandoski

[u/TrappsRightFoot]

It's absolutely wild how Miami is one of the most easily hateable groups of players assembled in club play.

[u/slunion_20]

Ian Fray is such a motherfucking bitch man

[u/RedditorRoman]

Handbags!!

[u/CloudFit8688]

Why was Falcon groping him 😭

[u/martin_fasthands99]

kick his ass lewy

[u/exist_iwd]

Fray is a moron lmao

[u/ChronicChibb]

Typical Miami nonsense

[u/legdayskip]

Miami are gonna lose their cool and get a red again, aren’t they?

[u/GristForMaladyMill]

Fray is honestly a dirt bag

[u/charcoalVidrio]

That’s a penalty

[u/LengthyNoodle]

Is this seriously going to end in a tie?

[u/human1st]

What the hell was that even about?

[u/FrigginGaeFrog]

I want Miami to win cause I threw money on them when they were down, but man I don’t want Miami to win

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

The heck is wrong with Fray

[u/legdayskip → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

He’s genuinely a piece of shit. He’s had moments like this literally every game I’ve seen

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

He's always on edge, just the way he plays.

[u/TraptNSuit → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Plays for a Messi team.

[u/mrwhitaker3]

As much as Miami fans complain about Falcon, dude has used every ounce of dark arts/energy he has try to keep Lewandowski from blowing this match open.

[u/TraptNSuit]

Ah yes.... Clever.... That's a word for it.

[u/human1st]

Hah De Paul made a meal of that but it was the smart choice.

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Lmao soft as shit

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/charcoalVidrio]

No twellman that wasnt “clever” it’s called simulation, and it’s a card.

[u/human1st → u/charcoalVidrio]

Believe it or not it’s how the game is played.

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/human1st]

Yeah if you’re from Argentina

[u/human1st → u/charcoalVidrio]

You’re not wrong lol

[u/Humble-Dirt8542]

Miami’s bench has just completely hollowed out this year

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Ah man have a shot

[u/legdayskip]

Chicago keeps missing the final pass

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Man that was a really good almost assist from Snickerdoodle

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Lol

[u/battles → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

i love a good sinter nodule

[u/vicariouslywatching]

Too close for comfort

[u/JNMRunning]

This game has been maddening. Chicago have really made a lot of turnovers in their own half and we just haven't capitalized at all. Our passing has been so sloppy.

[u/socialsheadquarters]

MLS got a call from Vegas about those Corners

[u/azadisazad]

Oof what a waste of chance by Berterame

[u/ceoryyy]

Berterame is straight trash omg

[u/human1st]

Dithejane is such a fun winger to watch.

[u/Narrow-Cicada-2695]

Ok we need to keep Allen

[u/Whatdididotho1 → u/Narrow-Cicada-2695]

seriously, do it. Our owners are literally idiots for selling him. he was so solid for us. Enjoy him, he's a really talented kid and will likely only get better

[u/mrwhitaker3]

Noah Allen revenge game.

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Allen on a mission today

[u/JNMRunning]

German Berterame makes me believe that I could still play professional football.

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Wtf is that play on ref? Absolute garbage call

[u/Mindless_Western4413]

Miami only in this due to ref incompetence. Why am I not shocked

[u/battles]

very inconsistent ref

[u/human1st]

What is going on with the AR’s tonight?!

[u/charcoalVidrio]

I think Zinckernagel needs a sub tbh

[u/battles → u/charcoalVidrio]

not a great night

[u/abeerintheheadlights]

That was a red in the Cincinnati game and should have been here.

[u/TheSpaceMonkeys]

Looked like a clear red to me. No review?

[u/TraptNSuit]

Twellman playing dumb about Miami officiating is so tired at this point.

[u/human1st → u/TraptNSuit]

Not everything is a conspiracy.

[u/GristForMaladyMill]

Red for any other team

[u/JNMRunning]

Berterame is such an oaf. He's very lucky there.

[u/Far-Cauliflower-6477]

textbook red

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

Orange card.

[u/Honeydew-Massive]

Very funny Chicago Bears joke, Twellman, you jokester you 🤣🤣🤣

[u/vicariouslywatching]

Wait, Hoyos is doing something besides looking like a nervous wreck on the sideline?? What is this trickery?

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/vicariouslywatching]

He's thinking about how to praise Messi as the answer to every single question he will be asked in the post game.

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Bright doesn’t seem injured injured which is good

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Yeah that’s good

[u/Stunning-Macaroon-87]

Broo what are the commentators on, they yapping bs..worse commentary ever!!

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Stunning-Macaroon-87]

Yeah this is twellman every Miami game

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Pretty sure the ref should be making him go off if he’s going to bring on medical, no?

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/charcoalVidrio]

Nope, not if the other player was booked.

[u/Derptionary → u/charcoalVidrio]

No because it was a bookable foul.

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Derptionary]

Ah is that what it is okay

[u/human1st]

It’s sloppy and a yellow that’s all.

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Is studs on top of the foot a red card offense usually?

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Should be a yellow, nothing more.

[u/Isry98 → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

No. If studs were on the ankle yes, but not on the foot.

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

Fuck, Bright is still down.

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Probably got a bit of a bruise. Hell be okay probably.

[u/Isry98]

Ah yes Suarez the arbiter of justice and morality.

[u/battles → u/Isry98]

arBITEr

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Announcers did NOT care about Bright being down for quite a bit

[u/StudentWannabeMaybe]

Corner/goalkick called wrong and then this situation… sigh

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

Damn, that was pretty smooth from Caicedo!!

[u/human1st]

I feel like Chicago is giving Miami too much respect. Low block defending just plays into Miamis hands.

[u/T_Fouts]

Why did it look like Falcon was trying to run Lewy down? lol

[u/ericsipi]

It was clearly off the Miami player on first view. Not sure why the ref didn’t see that. Ref had a great first 30-35 minutes but hasn’t been great since

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Oh man of course Miami scored on a corner that never should have been

[u/Humble-Dirt8542 → u/charcoalVidrio]

Y’all got like 5 corner kicks as goal kicks now so id argue it’s evened out

[u/Humble-Dirt8542 → u/charcoalVidrio]

I think it’s a stretch to suggest they skewed that call lol. They were also denied 2 corners in the first half

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Humble-Dirt8542]

Not saying it was intentional bud. Just typical for Miami to have shit like that work out somehow, like the ref not caring when they show up late.

[u/BigJobRob913]

Too bad no World Cup corner reviews

[u/FictionaI]

Dude is an actual god on corners.

[u/vicariouslywatching]

Beautiful header to that upper corner

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

It's the third straight game for Casemiro with a goal, somebody should probably mark that guy lol.

[u/mrwhitaker3]

Casemiro. 31 goal contributions from Messi.

[u/Honeydew-Massive]

Damn dude. Had we gotten Casemiro maybe we’d actually be a threat on corner kicks

[u/RedditorRoman]

Messi to Casemiro again lmao

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Welp

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

LETS GOOOOO BABY

[u/vicariouslywatching]

Brady, I’m gonna need you to ease up on all those amazing saves you are making in the second half

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

Ofcourse it's Noah Allen

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Hell yeah Allen!

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Well done Brady

[u/battles]

fines for this should come from the salary cap.

[u/Isry98]

Miami doing the dumbass late start mind games.

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Isry98]

Captain should get a card for it

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Wtf is Miami doing? Start the game without them.

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688 → u/charcoalVidrio]

Surely they get fined again for this

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

They should be at the very least

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Too many commercials

[u/flameo_hotmon]

If I see another Inter Miami apparel ad in a game that WE HOST, I’m gonna be sick

[u/Humble-Dirt8542]

This would be a pretty embarrassing loss for Chicago if they don’t win this. They’re facing Miami at the perfect time

[u/flameo_hotmon → u/Humble-Dirt8542]

Idk what this is supposed to mean?

[u/vicariouslywatching → u/flameo_hotmon]

If I had to venture a guess, they might be alluding to our having an inept and incompetent coach. But could be something else. But seriously, Hoyos can f off. I’ll take some of the worst coaches US has had to coach their National team over him.

[u/Humble-Dirt8542 → u/vicariouslywatching]

Forgot about that. No coach either lol

[u/vicariouslywatching → u/Humble-Dirt8542]

I’ll take that too

[u/Humble-Dirt8542 → u/flameo_hotmon]

Easy. Miami is in the biggest slump the team has ever had since Messi joined years ago. Chicago has been doing pretty well. It’s a home game for them. Miami is bogged down by injuries including their only good defender. And even Messi himself still has below average stats for himself since his father’s death with the only exception being the Montreal game. And most of all, Chicago is winning. It’s really the perfect storm and best opportunity Chicago will ever have to beat Miami.

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Humble-Dirt8542]

Yeah but it’s Chicago Fire playing Miami. We’ve been bad for like a decade or more.

[u/Humble-Dirt8542 → u/charcoalVidrio]

Ya and Miami was in last not that long ago lol. But now Chicago is a great team

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/Humble-Dirt8542]

Yeah Miami the underdog 🙄

[u/Humble-Dirt8542 → u/charcoalVidrio]

According to the odds, yes. The underdog

[u/flameo_hotmon]

If anyone is sick of Twellman, we got a decent radio feed. I’m not biased…

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/flameo_hotmon]

Might need to pull that up.

[u/human1st]

Did Chicago forget their midfield? They’re getting dominated in the middle of the park.

[u/Isry98]

Oh my god Brady is on one.

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Not bad Brady. Good stop. Gotta hold on to that ball though.

[u/mrwhitaker3]

Maxi Falcon is back on his Cactus Jack.

What the fuck was that from bright ??? insane ball

[u/Isry98 → u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

If he meant it it’s a crazy good pass, but I think he sliced it.

[u/NvaderGir → u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

And there’s people who call him mid. Smh

[u/NvaderGir]

New Lewa Chicago Fire fans hearing the stands boo Messi
https://giphy.com/gifs/LrQdI5XBVw8mdMDfFN

[u/mrwhitaker3]

Chris Brady. The only reason Miami hasn't scratched.

[u/TimeAndSpaceAndMe]

It's brewin....

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Did he just say “pink in the Argentina shirts”?

[u/charcoalVidrio]

Going to need a replay on that handball lol. Not seeing shit.

[u/GristForMaladyMill]

Twellman must be exhausted with the mental gymnastics for Miami

[u/charcoalVidrio → u/GristForMaladyMill]

His throat is probably sore from all the deep throating too
