partly correct but the Earthquakes were disbanded in 2005, the owners moved the team to texas, including all players and became the dynamo, earthquakes were reformed then in 2008. Bit like Art Modell moving the browns to baltimore. |

Robbie with a penalty to make it 3-1, Beckham taken off just before the end for a standing ovation, Galaxy champions once more. Surprised Robbie didn't let Beckham take it but his record from the spot is poor enough and better to have a striker take it, score it and finish things off. -------------

Keane is leading the assists table with 8 and has 7 goals so statistically you could argue they are correct in saying he is the 'best' player in the league(only know this as the commentators said the mls now have a stat for 'good chances' or something like that and I wanted to see it for the craic but couldnt find it  )But yeah he usually plays best when Landon Donavon is playing with him as the rest just arent on his wave length and a lot of that is down to their own limited talents imo I like watching the mls as you can see a lot of the players are all well trained in the technical side of the game, always looking to control and pass a lot rather than hoof it and despite the obvious misplaced pass's and often bad control that you see in the games some of the games can be a good auld watch for entertainment value alone ------------- 1312 |

Poor enough game, but Finals often are. Thought NE were mad to take off Nguyen - 20 goals this season and in great form, they missed him in ET. Jones has made a big difference for them since he came in, very hard-working side NE, they probably just lack that little spark of creativity that sides like LA & Seattle have. Anyway, Congratulations Robbie another winner from Tallaght

Was flicking between the MLS & Cricket. A rather "unusual" celebration from Robbie for his goal. A few minutes beforehand Omar Gonzalez had hit a long range pin point pass to Ishizaki and after a brillant first touch he got caught in two minds between a shot and a square ball to Robbie for an easy tap in. Keane was absolutely livid, ate the head off him for the next five minutes and was so pumped when the chance for his goal fell to him Great finish too. Chicago were reasonably well organised but LA had so many chances was hard to believe it was 0-0 at ht. Shaun Maloney didn't see much of the ball. With Gerrard to come in aswell in July I can see only Salt Lake or Seattle stopping LA this season.
