Bob Iarusci hugging Johan Cruyff was a blast from the past. Bob was an Italian Canadian from Toronto who was a solid defender for the Cosmos before going to Washington.

wow great goals and great crowds. too bad the league ran into financial disaster later on. it could have been one of the best leagues in the world by now!

The NASL back then was way more fun to watch than what we have today in MLS. You had to be there to understand. So much star power.

@brando7266 6 месяцев назад

U do know it went bankrupt 4 yrs later, ? Mls isn't a top 10 league, but it's attendance is top7 in the world , and the nasl never averaged over 14k a game, mls avg is 22k a game, and rising, it helps having your own stadiums, and a salary cap,

@@brando7266 It may have gone bankrupt but it was still more fun to watch due to all the star power. Comparing attendance from the 1970's and 2020's is apples and oranges.

Remember that the NASL folded when there was a bad down turn in the economy. Businessmen make cutbacks to downsize, otherwise I believe that the league would have survived.

@mrseaturtle8915 6 лет назад

Had nothing to do with economy - many sports flourished in 1982. Putting the NASL on TV 'in the ABC did' killed it; without that contract, the league began to fall apart quickly.

@johnreece5540 5 лет назад

Over expansion destroyed the league. Especially, placing teams in markets where Professional Soccer weren't dinner table topics. Interest in The New York Cosmos was greatly undermined when The National Football league New York Giants started winning.

@johnreece5540 5 лет назад

Another issue was parents weren't going to continue pay their hard earned money where the majority of American and Canadian players had very little hope of making the starting lineup.

@bonanzatime Год назад

I remember that goal by Johan Cruyff. Never saw anything like it in professional soccer before. Took the ball at midfield and single handedly (footedly rather) take it all the way down field and successful score a goal.

@larrynach Год назад

Awsome!

Big year for the Seattle Sounders. Finished the top of the pack in won/loss category. Roger Davies was on a goal scoring rampage. Too bad they lost to the Cosmos again in Soccer Bowl at San Diego.

He certainly scored a lot of them. And he seemed to be kind of clumsy and clutzy but he was always at the right place at the right time.. Also having the 10 times highest paid and talented teammates around him also helped him look good.
