Mo and Isak on the bench in a 2-2 match coming into the 80th minute. We're not serious about this match.

Is Arne aware that he has subs?

What if the real winner is the haram ball we played along the way??
Gotham winning a title on the back of a playoff -1.42 expected goal differential feels like a direct shot at all of us nerds.

A ridiculous run. Especially against my KC Current. I'm one of those "if you're gonna beat us, go win the whole damn thing so we can at least say we lost to the champs" type of sore loser, so...I'm okay with this.
tbf, gotham going through lkc, orlando and the spirit is absurd

Feel terrible for the Spirits. Saw them during preseason in January at IMG as we were about to go into our season. I was completely star struck seeing Trinity, Croix, Casey Krueger, Hal, etc. Such a good squad, crazy for it to go down this way again😕

Oh no Trin. Clutching her back too?? I hate this

Hal Herschfelt was excellent throughout this final and is obviously important to what the Spirit want to do. But it's hard to do that if you can't run. Washington coaching staff needed to make the obvious call earlier; insane to me that they didn't.

Limping back onto the field and then getting beat IMMEDIATELY for the goal. That is all on Adrian
Also it seems bad that the Sprit did not attempt to make a sub earlier than that. Herschfelt obviously didn't wanna come off but you gotta take that decision out of her hands when she can hardly walk

Hal had been the best player on the pitch until she got hurt. She comes back on, can't cover Lavelle, and then they give up the goal. Adrian made a choice his predecessor would have made. And it may cost them the ship.

Holy hell Rose that finish is LETHAL
