Why is Pat Noonan's comment, "We lost our legs," key to understanding football. I will tell you. The team with speed in the 60+ minutes of the game has endurance, running, and speed, and young players have a significant advantage in the game's late stages. Pat's team needed to be fitter at the late stage of the game compared to Columbus, who already could run full speed in the late stage of the game. Cinci lost the Leagues Cup similarly, losing their legs in that game. So, if you want to bet some money on the LAFC vs. Crew, I would bet my money on Columbus Crew, the most potent team with endurance legs.
I’m still proud of FCC for everything they’ve accomplished, but Columbus was the better team last night. Despite the 2 goal halftime lead, FCC was playing defense on their own end for 2/3 of the game. You can’t have that and expect a good result.
Love it. Cincy is a wildly overconfident sports city and big brother beat them at their own place in the Totally Quiet Library. Enjoy your Micky Mouse Cup 😂 Go Crew, go Browns, go Cavs, and go Guards
FC Cincinnati needs to learn how to earn respect. Its fans act as though the Club is entitled. It’s not. And @dannybaldwin7343 - three MLS Cups. ‘08, ‘20, ‘23. Read up.
