It seems none of the subs worked out for Rony Delia, one gets a caution shortly after going in, another lost for the season. Forget the score line, the loss of Heber is season long and impactful. With Maxi still not back to fitness, the offense took a massive blow. We were half a section up in the seats and at the midpoint of the goal, he went down, hard and his defender was calling for the doctors as soon as he hit the floor then for the stretcher as well long before the ref or teammates.

This was bad, as soon as he went down, his defender was signalling for the trainer as well as a stretcher as Heber lay on the ground. He stayed with him all the way until he was removed from the field. His right ACL is torn. He will soon go under the knife and begin a painstaking recovery, he has one of the best spirits I have ever encountered and I expect him to come even better. Boa Sorte Heber.

So many firsts here, the first time NYB has played in South Florida in well over a decade, the first time facing Inter Miami, the first time facing ex-captain Luis Robles, the first game facing each other for the Nealis brothers of Massapequa.
As we were at the NYCFC game at RBA of all places, we were unable to see the game live, but did watch a re-broadcast yesterday. A massive thank you to Shep Messing for remarking on a question I put to Sean Nealis during a press event relative to who his family would be rooting for.

To this day, I still do not know if Pluto is once again a planet or just a rock and Disney character, but that is for another day.
In a release from MLS, Pluto TV is described as "the leading free streaming television service." Quite the misnomer if it is on them the lack of quality in both audio and video of recent games I have watched. Minutes have passsed with no video and I saw more of their dead screen image than those games.

As a big sign in Red Bull Arena reminded me last night, BWP was the fastest to 100 goals in MLS, he is now #3 all time in POW nods, his 12th time overall, that is 3 months worth, his first since Week 29 of 2018, he had a stubborn groin injury.
