- 65K at the Concacaf final, and we were through security, in the stadium, and at our seats in 15 min. No teargas to be found.UEFA Well Done. Crown jewel of your year. And you are CONCACAFFING it up
- You see, if Mexican fans are the reason there are seven minutes of stoppage time, Mexico should not be able to score a goal after the stoppage time is over. That’s a massive problem. #GoldCup21
- Anibal Godoy’s English is getting pretty good. He took and answered full questions in English today. Here he is talking about his role and confidence with this year’s #Quakes74 team.
00:00 - Multiple sources have told me head coach Matias Almeyda attempted to resign from #Quakes74 this week, although he wants to be paid for the season (plus his staff). Both parties want to resolve this as soon as possible, and not at the end of the season as has been suggested. 1/2
- Turns out the answer to “but can European stars do it on a hot-and-humid night in Texas/Florida?” answer is “nope”. #ATXvLAFC
- Chris Wondolowski requested to speak to the media today on behalf of the team. "I want to send a message...regarding the racial inequalities I see this nation. There needs to be change."
- Wondo walking the Earthquakes Stadium pitch following tonight’s game, perhaps his final one here. #Quakes74
00:00 - This is big. Club record deal. My sources are also now confirming. $6M seems to be the fee, plus incentives rumored at another $1M based on games played. Congrats to #Quakes74 fans. You finally have your DP attacking midfielder you've been waiting for!BREAKING: The San Jose Earthquakes have signed No. 10 Hernán López from Godoy Cruz in a club-record deal worth around $6m, per sources. DP deal. Deal got done ahead of last night's deadline. @CLMerlo 1st. López, 23, had 5g/6a in 28 apps last year. theathletic.com/live-blogs/pre…
- Almeyda on whether he was upset about losing the clean sheet: “No, no, no. Honestly, when you get scored on, it’s because your opponent had a virtue.” Never get the typical response from Almeyda. #Quakes74 Question from @robertjonas.
00:00 - Forever Black & Blue. We have transferred homegrown forward Cade Cowell to @Chivas. Thank you @Cc4Official for your years of dedication from the Academy to the First Team. The #Quakes74 family can’t wait to see you shine in the next step of your journey!
- Almeyda invokes the Biblical reference of John 8:7 regarding Vega’s howler: “whoever is free of sins throws the first rock, and then nobody would be left...whoever is free of mistakes, step on the field and play by yourself. Not even we would step on. #Quakes74
00:00 - Matias Almeyda in #SJvHOU postgame saying via translator that if Covid-19 vaccines were available he believes his father would still be alive. He believes everyone possible should get a vaccine.
- People out here really defending season one Jamie Tartt tonight instead of understanding how real coaching and team leadership works.
