my 21 year old‘s ideal lineup #allaidanallthetime

Max Arfsten scored as many goals in 2 minutes as Christian Pulisic scored in the entire 2026 World Cup.

I know Cucho is too much of a pro to be here or stalking messages towards him, but man, I hope he holds onto the memory of his amazing assist in game 1 rather than the saved PK from tonight. Love you Cucho. Forever #Crew96

Cucho had as many goal contributions as James Rodriguez, Luis Suarez and Jhon Cordoba combined this World Cup despite getting a grand total of 10 mins in the group and 1st knockout. But he didn’t score as a sub today and missed his penalty so he will never play another meaningful min for Colombia

Cucho would've scored if he stayed, the minor leagues made him soft.

HEY COLUMBUS, IF YOU ENJOYED THE MEN’S WORLD CUP TRY COMING TO A CREW GAME AT THE NEW STADIUM! TICKETS ARE THE MOST EXPENSIVE IN THE LEAGUE AND WE’RE IN 10TH PLACE AND WE’VE BEEN SELLING OUR GOOD PLAYERS NON STOP FOR THREE YEARS! ALSO THE OWNERS WANT YOUR WIFE TO DIE FROM AN ECTOPIC PREGNANCY YAY!

There is one man who can turn this match around

TONIGHT. AT. TAV. 🇺🇸🇧🇪

In light of the recent FIFA scandal, Steel City Massive has accepted the responsibility of running world football. Our first act of corruption: awarding an exclusive contract to serve Youngstown-style pizza at every stadium. 🍕 Oh and the FIFA Council has been relocated to the bocce courts. 🇮🇹

Quick story: during the Great Recession, some enterprising job seekers made up fake positions at Circuit City, which had gone bankrupt, to fill up resume gaps. Why’s that matter? Well, we could be entering another economic downturn, so remember: “FIFA appeals judge” is right there

how I feel when there’s a lot of troubling things happening and I am morally conflicted but I also want to enjoy the game tonight

THE CONCACAF AFTER DARK ENERGY IS OFF THE CHARTS.

There’s no way football isn’t coming home now. It’s a bloody guarantee

MLS is the only ethical governing body. Their ruling is that Brian White should start up top for the USMNT.

This is NOT what the FIFA World Cup is about. The FIFA World Cup is about *opens history book* uh oh *Frantically starts flipping though pages* uh oh. oh no. no no no. uh oh

Sure this may be the best England squad in many of our lifetimes but can they deal with #Concacafterdark!? Sweet Guillermo, you absolutely love to see it!

Was gonna make a joke about how the Argentina fans in tears they keep showing probably cheer for the Empire when watching Star Wars but suspect if you check out what there grandparents and great grandparents were up to in the 1930s and 40s…

Remarkable run by a remarkable team. Let's meet Steven at the airport #Crew96

Need at least 17 mins of stoppage time unless Cabo Verde scores off this corner in which case we need a to go straight to PKs

Golazo from Sidny Lopes Cabral, level again

Genuinely, whatever happens in the next 15+ minutes, Cabo Verde's 2026 World Cup debut will be remembered for decades to come.

WORLD'S #1 ARCHIPELAGO NOW AND FOREVER

OMFGDJDHSISHSU 🇨🇻

SHOOT THAT SHIT INTO MY FUCKING VEINS!!!! CAAAAABO!!!

BUCKETS!!! WHAT A SHOT!!!!!!!!

CABOOOOOOOOOO VERDE GOAAAALLLL WE’RE TIED AGAIN

Steven Moreira's one of my favorite MLS players ever and I'd give up a digit for him to find an equalizer right now.

If this goes to PKs, Messi misses and Cabo Verde bounces Argentina, that just might be enough Good Vibes to get us back on the right timeline that we split off when they killed Harambe/founded FC Cincy in 2016

STEVEN MOREIRA CATALYZING A DOUBLE MEG!!!

The Crew transfers Diego Rossi to CF Monterrey The Black & Gold send their top scorer to Mexico.

#Crew96 GM Issa Tall said Diego Rossi's move didn't impact the moves made this summer. He said there was a "life-changing offer" for Rossi last season, but the club couldn't go ahead at the time, so they worked with Rossi to extend his time while also accepting he could go soon.

I expect Diego Rossi to sign his contract today since he landed in Monterrey last night Thanks for the Cups. Next. #Crew96

If that's the standard of holding foul that earns a penalty, Balugon should have earned at least two last night 🤷

NFL playoffs numbers from the World Cup. My god man. Can't wait to see how MLS marketing capitalizes on this! **puts finger to ear** bsky.app/profile/donj...

I’m told #Crew96 paid just over $6 million for Brais Mendez. With just over $8 million expected for Diego Rossi this week, that seems like good business done for Columbus. I would also not expect this to be the only DP move this window.

#Crew96 have signed La Liga midfielder Brais Mendez to a designated player contract. More on the signing in my latest below. www.dispatch.com/story/sports...

According to Spanish media the transfer fee was 6M€ or $6.9M.

#Crew96 add an attacking piece with La Liga and Champions League experience, signing Real Sociedad's Brais Méndez as a Designated Player.

#Crew96 acquire MF Brais Méndez, 29, on transfer from Real Sociedad. Fee undisclosed. DM scouts: Classic Spanish attacker. Can play 8, 10 and 9, wide or deeper in the midfield. Diligent without the ball. Good technique. Very good underlying numbers. Played 29 games for a top-half La Liga club.

🇪🇸 BREAKING: The Columbus Crew has signed Spanish attacking midfielder Brais Méndez from Real Sociedad, per sources. Méndez, 29, will be a DP. Big deal. Long-time veteran of LaLiga.

Wake-up the new #Crew96 signing teaser just dropped.

Another thing that sticks out is that it is the first red card given for serious foul play by VAR in World Cup history. It kind of suggests it was out of band for what's expected to be a VAR intercession.
