FC Dallas will need to put behind their CONCACAF Champions League exit behind quickly as the new expansion side Minnesota United make their way down to Fortress Frisco.
The updated staff standings has a new leader on the board, albeit was a very bitter way to take the lead as yours truly predicted a 3-1 loss against Pachuca.

The staff are optimistic that the club will take care of business and put all their frustrations on a hapless Minnesota backline tonight. In other words, we see goals and lots of them in tonight’s match.
FCD v SKC
Name | Result for FCD | FCD Score | Opposition Score | Commentary |
---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Result for FCD | FCD Score | Opposition Score | Commentary |
Etan Cohn | Win | 2 | 1 | |
El Chico Carmona | Win | 2 | 1 | FCD will get the winning goal right before the game can go to PKs |
Mohammad Bushnaq | Draw | 1 | 1 | FC Dallas pay the penalty and the defending champs bow out of the USOC. |
Jared Tilley | Win | 2 | 1 | |
Scott Hiney | Win | 1 | 1 | Maxi sends us to PKs, Hollingshead's take is what seals the victory. |
Cody Gamond | Win | 2 | 1 | Come from behind in extra time after a 1-1 end to the game. Maxi and Ulloa the scorers. |
Jeff Loftin | Loss | 1 | 1 | Unfortunately I think we lose in penalties. |
Ryan Scanlon | Loss | 0 | 2 | I think Kansas City will definitely be wanting this game more as FC Dallas comes out sloppy and really missing Matt Hedges. Sporting is also undefeated in their last 8 games. They'll keep that going here as Rubio and Blessing grab the goals and win for SKC. |
Jack Hazzard | Win | 2 | 1 | KC will be both chippy and arrogant but Urutti will fix that real quick. |
Ben Lyon | Win | 2 | 1 | 3 more wins to consecutive silverware. It'll be 2 after tonight. |
Drew Epperley | Loss | 1 | 1 | I think the game will end level but SKC will go on in PKs. |
What do you guys think? Are we overly optimistic or just right?
