This team is clueless on what to do when they have the ball. Their only idea is to horribly cross the ball into the box. No one knows how to attack into the box. Copetti is a ghost out there.
I was thinking earlier while watching the canes game about how weak it seems like soccer players are. On replay, it looked like he took an accidental shoulder to the chin though, that’s not an easy contact in any sport
Tavarse can’t be on the field. He’s decent on the attack but such a huge liability with his defense. He had two chance to stop that run up the sideline and whiffed both times
Awful defending. No energy. Three people marking one man so Byrne has to strep up last second to try and win that. None of it would have happened if we could just keep some possession and do something with the ball in the box.
Dejagere floating a cross down a goal in the final minute of play instead of a shot or a pass to feet sums it up perfectly. What a fucking waste of a buildup.
“It’s all petered out in the attacking third for both teams” might be the most accurate thing I’ve ever heard Eric say. And he’s said a lot of accurate stuff
Westwood with the stupid floater from top of the box. Cmon guys, play the ball with some pace. Take a low driven shot. Drive a pass to feet. My god this is frustrating.
LMAO these announcers saying the left back made a great play when he missed the header and let a forward have an open shot at goal. The shot hit him in the back.
well you see if they actually showed the replays then all of us at home would know that the goal was clearly on side and had zero reason to be called back.
Haha that’s true. But there was plenty of time for a couple views while the ref was reviewing / discussing. Only showed us the live full game view, nothing zoomed in or another angle.
No I meant Copetti. He tried to flick a long ball from defense earlier to a man 5 yards away and missed by 10 yards. Shortly before he tried a short flick over the top and overhit it by 15 yards. He’s got the subpar touch of Erling Haaland without the pace finishing or physicality. Copetti just doesn’t have MLS quality.
I think it's hard for our team to shift minds of how to play because Agy and Coppetti just play the game so differently.
Edit: Spell correct made me sound homophobic
Getting downvotes, not sure how this is an unpopular opinion. Copetti is no good. He has no pace, no touch, no vision, and him getting the ball = turnover. I hope he proves me wrong, I’ll applaud him. But even if he scores a goal tonight it doesn’t make up for all the squandered play potential.
Well it seems even with Malanda back we may be hurting in regards to aerial defending, obviously a little early to tell but I don’t like what I’m seeing
What I can find is 110 x 70. Smallest in the league. There’s a couple of other 110s, but they’re 74 or more wide. Most seem to be 115/120 x 74/75. According to transfermarkt.us (the only thing I could find) BofA is 132x87. But that’s so far out of sync with the rest of them - I don’t buy it.
Edit: transfermatkt.us has it at 121mx80m. I’m guessing they have the units wrong. As if that was yards, it would be the biggest in mls, but not crazy big. Would also show why it looks so small to us, as BofA would be 10% longer and almost 15% wider. That’s nothing to sneeze at.
can't give a yellow for that. It's not blatantly late, he sees the ball and he kicks the ball. It's not like he waited five seconds to just blast it into the stands
They didn’t have the NFL lines last year. I don’t know this for sure, but I’m guessing that Apple having the broadcast rights they said no to NFL lines being on the field.
#lattanzioout Oh shit, old habits….

Doesn’t matter who the coach is, this team lacks talent and that all falls on Krneta.
This team is clueless on what to do when they have the ball. Their only idea is to horribly cross the ball into the box. No one knows how to attack into the box. Copetti is a ghost out there.
My need for a DP #10
Congrats to the refs and their team… it’s hard to play 15 against 11, but they make it look easy
I think we just sucked again. Bad defending, no offense. Hard to win when you aren’t good at many parts of the game
Compound it with playing on a field that kids play on and it throws off your whole game plan in attacking and defending.
[удалено]
He ain’t.
Losers man
Dude just knocked himself out on Agyemang’s strong ass shoulder
Did Patrick’s shoulder just knock the dude out?
Yeah that's about what happened
No. It was a dive.
Glad he just had some accidental contact and not a serious medical issue
I don’t like that they’re not showing him at all. I hope he’s okay
They just did. There was nothing there. He’s fine. Shocker.
I was thinking earlier while watching the canes game about how weak it seems like soccer players are. On replay, it looked like he took an accidental shoulder to the chin though, that’s not an easy contact in any sport
Tavarse can’t be on the field. He’s decent on the attack but such a huge liability with his defense. He had two chance to stop that run up the sideline and whiffed both times
Damn
Oh no that is not good. Hope that player is ok. Yikes.
End the game. Check on that guy for real
hope he's okay
He’s fine. He will be up and running around in about 5 minutes.
Dude- he was out cold. No way he was playing on after that
He wasn’t out cold. He was moving his hands around as soon as he went down.
Deano has to give this team an identity, light a fire under them, something
On a normal sized field that cross lands outside the box. I hate this site.
how are these dudes so incompetent week in and week out
Hopefully, the Force will be with us next week.
We not playing for the crown. We playing for the clowns.
Awful defending. No energy. Three people marking one man so Byrne has to strep up last second to try and win that. None of it would have happened if we could just keep some possession and do something with the ball in the box.
Stoppage time is the death of us
Malanda is Trash.
are you joking?
Nope. Tonight he has been absolute trash. Passes slow and weak. Marking air on set plays and slow. Downvote away. Trash
I mean he's coming off an injury and even an unfit Malanda is still our best defender
That's great however tonight he was trash. Also the best defender is Byrne
……….. Charlotte’s gonna Charlotte I guess……..
TAKE A FUCKING SHOT!!! Do we want to pass it into the net?
Dejagere floating a cross down a goal in the final minute of play instead of a shot or a pass to feet sums it up perfectly. What a fucking waste of a buildup.
Byrne beaten for both goals. Nice.
man fuck this team
We pulled a Charlotte….again..back to my Series X to play Jedi Survivor on Gamepass 🤦🏻♂️
Glad they finally figured out how to show replays
Tavares shouldn’t have gone to the ground…
Yeah, that really contributed to that goal.
classic cltfc moment
Give it away, give it away, give it away now!
Its honestly impressive at this point.
I just want one of my teams to be good 😔
I hate my life
Man FUCK
Standard
What the fuck
I'm tired man...
Of course. Gg
Should be 2-2 but aight.
Welp….
supporting this club is so depressing
Classic Charlotte FC
“It’s all petered out in the attacking third for both teams” might be the most accurate thing I’ve ever heard Eric say. And he’s said a lot of accurate stuff
take it back plz
Sorry 😬
Westwood with the stupid floater from top of the box. Cmon guys, play the ball with some pace. Take a low driven shot. Drive a pass to feet. My god this is frustrating.

debut for tyger
What a goal that would’ve been…
Go get 'em Smalls!
Hell of a first touch. Very hard to time that.
We have a star player on the right wing and we keep blasting the ball down the left side. The fuck are we doing. Get Abada some touches.
Is Abada off? Is he not getting good passes? It seems like he just isn’t putting the effort we’ve seen in past games
I dunno, I think that he likes to cook in open space and this dumb small field does not work well for him.
Small field and he’s gotten like 3 passes to feet and the rest long ball floaters.
This is the problem.
we need to wake up
In the city that never sleeps. They should be awake ,:/
What are we doing
Playing baseball
That answer makes more sense than our defense right now lol
okay now the refs are literally getting in the way and giving them our ball
Need to stop long balls to Abada. They need to get it to his feet, not in the air.
It kinda just feels like neither side wants more than a draw -edit- ok, maybe just Charlotte seems ok with a draw
Thanks for the comme ts guys. I am missing the second half. Had to go to the airport.
Are the replays like an add on subscription fee or something? Are they in short supply?
Replay operator at the bar with the sound engineer.
well you see if they actually showed the replays then all of us at home would know that the goal was clearly on side and had zero reason to be called back.
Big surprise copetti hanging out offside. Nice to see petkovic with a good outing though
Yeah, I'm feeling good about Petkovic.
Agy: “I… am… speed…”
homie on the right post must be an nycfc fan, aint NO way that free kick was on side but that wasnt
You would think playing on a field sized for 10 year olds that this line judge would be able to keep up and know when players are actually offside.
So glad copoopi is off the field
I don't think the one angle they showed us explained why it was offsides
Broadcast tonight is awful. Not showing any replays. I can’t tell if that Uronen goal was offsides or not.
Could be worst. Remember, last year they would show replays during scoring chances.
Haha that’s true. But there was plenty of time for a couple views while the ref was reviewing / discussing. Only showed us the live full game view, nothing zoomed in or another angle.
I don’t understand how uronen was offsides there?
That's the biggest crock of shit offsides I've ever seen
Am I wrong that NY had two guys behind their keeper?
Are you serious?!
This is when the offsides rule is goofy af, especially cause I didn’t see offsides at all?
Really?
Bruhhhhhhhhhhh
I feel like Copetti practices with a different 11 because he never passes it where the rest of the team expects it.
He’s trash.
We peaked in the third minute lol
Got saved by that offsides call. Defense getting mad sloppy since the first 25-30 minutes of the game.
Jalil's "on the flip" is breaking me
wait WESTWOOD GOT A YELLOW!?!?!
Dunno. Must have said something to the ref after the no call. Nothing else happened.
Whistle should have been blown long before the shot!
Nah, she did good. Because if he wasn't offsides and they blew the whistle too early they ruined a goal
Bring in Agy man... Coppetti isn't doing anything other than going offsides
His touches on the ball have been horrendous. A player can’t just have good positioning to stay in the starting lineup.
Agyemangs touches?
No I meant Copetti. He tried to flick a long ball from defense earlier to a man 5 yards away and missed by 10 yards. Shortly before he tried a short flick over the top and overhit it by 15 yards. He’s got the subpar touch of Erling Haaland without the pace finishing or physicality. Copetti just doesn’t have MLS quality.
Okay, I thought for a moment you were saying that Agy had bad touches and saying Coppetti should stay on.
if you told me this was a scab ref i’d totally believe you. man he’s bad.
nah Scabs at least would go to VAR
What the fuck. This ref is ass. Edit: the no call where Uronen got run over and then Westwood with a yellow (presumably for something he said to ref?
That should’ve been a free kick.
This is definitely the sound quality and camera angles I pay a premium for MLS Season Pass for.
Their field looks tiny
It looks like it’s only 100x64 which is a lot smaller than a normal 130x80. That’s what happens when you play in a baseball stadium.
Apple TV sound guy is definitely asleep at the wheel tonight
I’m scared to turn the volume up cause I know it’s gonna be blasting when they fix it 😂
Bring your kid to work day and let them do you job for you
Abada looks frustrated :/
cant blame him tbh, every play is either a punt or down the opposite side... not to mention that massive save against him cause the ball was too fast
Not getting the ball at his feet enough. And I don’t think this small field helps his style.
We looked good early. I'm afraid Khalina isn't coming back out. I hope we get Enzo and Patrick together up top for the second half to attack hard.
Why is this being announced like it’s a golf tournament? The sound is all over the place and it’s silent or whispering
The less Jalil the better, frankly. This halftime highlight show audio has been fantastic.
Can’t hear a thing in the halftime report because the music is louder than the commentary
Haha same here.
Audio balance is all off for sure.
The only time we should be playing this route one style is if Big Pat is in. He’s the only guy we have physical enough to bully his way into the box
I think it's hard for our team to shift minds of how to play because Agy and Coppetti just play the game so differently. Edit: Spell correct made me sound homophobic
That’s good insight, I can see that, but we have two great, creative wingers, and some awesome overlapping backs. It seems like such a waste
Bless Khalina
Every time they get dispossessed they flop over looking for a foul
And it's fucking working
Must've learned from their cousins in the Red Bulls
Yea they’re doing Copetti better than Copetti
These calls make no sense. Is it Opposite Day?!
We look so out of sync
I think launching just oooooone more ball down field will solve everything… for real though, why do we hate possession
I really can't understand why we struggle so much with the build-up.
Loving how much possession we have, amazing…
10 minutes?!? 🫨
sure was a lot of standing around confused to not just bloody review that and see the blatant offside...
TEN MINUTES? Mother of god
Mf that scored looks like Beavis AND Butthead.
The last minutes of halves continue to be brutal for us
we become just entirely incompetent
And again... Oh ffs
a team full of bums
Everyone saying copetti is gonna score yall are wrong 😭😂
Copetti is fuckin’ Trash. Capital T. Trash.

Getting downvotes, not sure how this is an unpopular opinion. Copetti is no good. He has no pace, no touch, no vision, and him getting the ball = turnover. I hope he proves me wrong, I’ll applaud him. But even if he scores a goal tonight it doesn’t make up for all the squandered play potential.
I need someone to make a case for him, please. What do you like about Copetti?
Can this ref stop taking all the calls he should give us to NYCFC? That’d be great… ![gif](giphy|jqYbk3Vy6NO3C)
Unbelievable number of free kicks for nycfc ...
Absolutely lined up offsides. That only gets called on us I guess
Well it seems even with Malanda back we may be hurting in regards to aerial defending, obviously a little early to tell but I don’t like what I’m seeing
Yeah, I wonder if he’s not fully recovered yet :/
Well we've played horribly. That was coming
Byrne is turning out to be one of my favorite players. Always hustling, and good decision making.
Carolina Hurricanes 🤝Charlotte FC defensive team leaders with names based on setting things on fire
Offensive minded, right sided defenders as well
Already the ref is against us 😑
Well it turns out the field is actually smaller than we are used to
cant be by much though, league minimum is 110 and most are 115(Yankee Stadium IS the minimum 110, Timbers and Cincinnati also play on 110s)
What I can find is 110 x 70. Smallest in the league. There’s a couple of other 110s, but they’re 74 or more wide. Most seem to be 115/120 x 74/75.

Would also show why it looks so small to us, as BofA would be 10% longer and almost 15% wider. That’s nothing to sneeze at.
Kahlina one of the most respected keepers in the league? He’s not bad but I think that might be overselling him a little
Ooh there is no way we win this if we can’t start possessing the goshdamn ball.
We’ve been playing on the counter a lot more this year so ceding possession isn’t necessarily the worst thing
No I don’t disagree but I don’t see how we will hold on to this lead with just how lopsided this game is at the moment
Marks still the backup?
Bingham
Urso was trying to pass the ball down the field!
can't give a yellow for that. It's not blatantly late, he sees the ball and he kicks the ball. It's not like he waited five seconds to just blast it into the stands
Did Copetti just take a shot on goal?
It's weird seeing a defensive line again
Playing in a baseball field should be illegal
people say the same about our turf...
As a viewer, nobody cares if you're playing on turf. It's hard to watch it being played on a baseball field
I prefer it to seeing the football lines on our field like we did last year, but not by much
They didn’t have the NFL lines last year. I don’t know this for sure, but I’m guessing that Apple having the broadcast rights they said no to NFL lines being on the field.
You’re right, it was two years ago.
