STORY OF THE DAY
Jimmy Golen of the Associated Press reports that Taylor Twellman told a conference on brain trauma
and concussions that the New England Revolution doctors missed treated him, and even sent him back
into a game even after he said he had a concussion.
With MOST of the final weekend of the 2011 MLS regular season being played today, we will have a
very clear picture of what the playoff match-ups will be for the playoffs once tonight's matches
are finished. With that in mind, we will be listing the match-ups and tonight's results so you can
have an updated look at what the playoffs look like.
Below are the updated table and collated results for Group A of the 2011-12 CONCACAF Champions
League group stage. Teams are ranked by points, then head-to-head points, head-to-head away goals,
then overall matches (goal difference, goals scored, away goals). Home teams are listed first. P W

Everything broke right for the Dynamo over the weekend and after some stress and worry, Houston
is in the 2011 MLS Cup Playoffs! The only thing we don't know is whether they can avoid the wild
card round. Events later this week will decide that.
If the Dynamo want to avoid playing a wild card match, they need to defeat the Galaxy at home on
Sunday and they need some help.
Long-time South Bay resident and former Galaxy Coach Sigi Schmid is taking aim at the Galaxy,
despite the slim chance the Seattle Sounders have of catching the MLS leaders in the race for the
Supporters' Shield reports Associated Press Sports Writer Tim Booth:
SEATTLE (AP) -- After raising their third straight U.
The New York Red Bulls defeated the Los Angeles Galaxy 2-0 to claim their third win in five
matches and take a massive step towards the MLS playoffs.
League-leading Galaxy traveled to the Red Bulls Arena without the services of playmaker Landon
Donovan for tonight's crucial match and their lack of creativity without the U.
New England Revolution sported pink throughout their 2-1 defeat to Seattle Sounders in support of

Would it help if we said that we really want to make an MLS results round-up a regular
part of our website?
The Dynamo got a point against the Fire and while they remain in the playoffs, the Portland
Timbers are hot on their tails. Here's what happened this weekend and how it changed the playoff
picture. No new teams clinched a playoff spot, but Toronto and New England were eliminated from
playoff contention.

Notable: The Galaxy and RSL combined for 40 fouls - the visitors accounted for 24 of them.
Se está disputando la cuarta edición de la Concacaf Liga Campeones. Se clasificaron ocho equipos
directos a la fase de grupos (dos de los Estados Unidos, dos de México, y uno de Costa Rica,
Panamá, Guatemala, y Honduras), mientras que 16 equipos jugaron una fase previa de clasificación.
Se le concedieron 3 cupos a Honduras ya que el campeón de Belice, Belize Defence Force, no
cumplió los requisitos de la Concacaf.

Quotable:
"They play a different game - quickness - not the same style of physicality (you see in
MLS)," said Galaxy Coach Bruce Arena. "It was an important experience for us."
Mike Magee agreed with that assessment:
They're more technical than most MLS teams ," he said.
Amazing subplots were cast over MLS action this past weekend. Robbie Keane scored in his debut for
the Galaxy while newly transferred Juan Pablo Angel did the same for Chivas USA. Coming of
brilliant Champion's League success FC Dallas took on Seattle. New York and New England fans were
treated to more of the same from their respective teams and Portland fans found reason to cheer.
Game of the Week LA Galaxy 2, San Jose 0 Forget for a moment that this was the California Clasico.
It was easy enough in the moment, anyway. Certainly by the 21st minute on Saturday night, the
subtext had become the 31-year-old Irishman who'd flashed into MLS in the thick of the night. And
then this happened and we all rethought how dominant we'd imagined the Galaxy to be.

Quotable: "What we were lacking is precision and clarity," said Motagua coach Ramon Maradiaga
after a game in which his team was thoroughly outplayed.
Said Galaxy Coach Bruce Arena, underlining his team's complete domination:
"If there's anything out there to be critical about there was another goal out there
and we didn't take it.

Orlando City F.C. scored a 93rd minute equalizer in its U.S. Open Cup match against FC Dallas,
but that wasn't the last goal scored in regulation.
FC Dallas defeated Orlando City, 3-2, in a Round of 16 match on Tuesday night courtesy of a 94th
minute goal from Milton Rodriguez.
Alan Gordon was stellar for Toronto.Even with the Gold Cup in full swing, MLS rolls on. The teams
are depleted but that hasn't stopped some from stepping up. Players like Steven Lenhart are on fire
and staple stars like Henry and Beckham remain impressive. Taking a look back at MLS's most
exciting matches from the weekend, here's your hope for soccer after the USMNT's failure against
Panama.

Not a bad week, if I do say so myself.
Best-SuperClasico-photo-ever: Damn, I miss Jesse Marsch.
Take a stroll down SuperClasico memory lane with a look back at these games between Chivas USA
and the Galaxy over (almost) the last three years:
*Oct. 3, 2010: Chivas USA 1 Galaxy 2
*April 1, 2010: Galaxy 2 Chivas USA 0
*Nov.
Another week, another round of Major League Soccer fixture. Week eight presented more draws than
definitive results, but there was plenty of excitement on offer. Here's how I predicted the
schedule would play out:
(Actual results in brackets. Red for incorrect result, blue for correct result, green for exact
scoreline)
DC United 1-1 Seattle Sounders (2-1)
Houston Dynamo 1-2 Colorado Rapids (1-2)
Portland Timbers 1-1 Philadelphia Union (1-0)
Real Salt Lake 2-0 Chivas USA (1-0)

New England Revolution 0-2 Colorado Rapids (0-0)
Chicago Fire 2-1 Vancouver Whitecaps (0-0)
LA Galaxy 2-0 New York Red Bulls (1-1)
As you can see, another poor effort.
A combination of crippling man flu and a short vacation starting tomorrow (not a good mix in
itself) means I'm bringing you a streamlined edition of The Fixture List this week. Below
are my predictions for this week's games, as always, but first I'll reflect on my guesses last
week.
Correct results in brackets.
Everyone expecting the Philadelphia Union to revert back to the mean is in for a rude awakening.
Just ask the New York Red Bulls.
In its second season as a franchise, the Union has the look of a winner after gutting out a home
result against New York, maintaining its spot atop the Eastern Conference standings and climbing
into the top three of the SBI MLS Power Rankings.
