The SOUTH has rose again! (sorry NC getting in my
head)
I watched. But didn't post result post match because
we were dashing out the door to squeeze in dinner
before the MLS matches.

Wow! I didn't catch that, but then again I'm so used
to watching and mentally tuning out the announcers.
The entire production was poor they were showing a fan
shot behind a large graphic while a goal was scored
for crying out loud, but it's not as bad as the KCAL
production of LA's match. Red line on the announcers'
audio nearly the entire time! UGH!
