@@tarik158 Yeah, well, I don't know about you, but I can't ever see Aberystwyth Town and Birmingham City being considered local rivals, and they're roughly 100miles apart. And is the UK even 400 miles long?
@@alternatehistorysports definitely.. I hope in the future to see a big investment in either Costa Rican League or Honduran league and get a great one going
@@thehandleisuseless That would be great. Jamaica as well. The MLS and USL needs to make affiliations with clubs in CONCACAF. Eg LAFC affiliated to Chivas, Sacramento affiliated to Saprissa and so on.

MLS, you could produce a video explaining to Americans how soccer works. All sports have material explaining to the new fans the basic structure of the game, and I don't see that in soccer. In addition to the rules, I offer a script with some ideas, comparing it with other sports to put down some myths: Americans say the game is boring and has a low score. And they often compare it to American football saying that this one is the real football. They don't realize that football has a bit of an illusion. What really matters are touchdowns, not field goals or first downs. And they not occur that much. Most games end 2 - 2 or 3 - 2. But touchdowns are worth 6 pts and you still have the extra point and field goals. Illusion to generate entertainment. The inventors realized that it is difficult to reach the target multiple times, so they created the field goal. Not to mention that it is played with the hands, while soccer is played with the feet. The feet weren't made for carry up and throw things. This is a heck of a skill. The target in football is the entire base line; in soccer it is a box, closed on the sides and above, in a minimal part of the base line. Also, soccer field is bigger than american football field. And there are no commercial break every five minutes. Soccer is a game of patience, offense look for space to finalize and defense try to close space and steal the ball; its a simple game, easy to understand. I recognize that in american football there is no 0 - 0, even with my count, but it is precisely because it is played with the hands and the target is very large. In American sports, offenses have some advantages over defenses, thats why there is high scores, like in basketball, for example. That is, the defenses are challenged by the offenses. In soccer, the opposite occurs: the offense has the challenge of overcoming the defense. That is why the goal is very celebrated. Regarding 0-0 or other draws: everyone wants to see goals, including soccer fans, but it doesn't always happen. However, a tie is not always just a tie. It can also taste like victory for one team and defeat for the other. That is why it is important to understand the format of the competition and what is at stake in the general context. It's true: fans can celebrate a 0-0. And this kind of game can be very busy and full of opportunities, but the offenses were overcome by goalkeepers and their defensive teammates. In soccer, defense is just as important as the offense. One goal is one goal and it doesn't matter which part of the field the kick comes from. About flopping: nobody likes that. Not even soccer fans. Players should avoid this practice. But unfortunately it happens. Not because the game is soft, but because the players want to deceive the referee and obtain advantages, such as: free kick next to the bars or a penalty, or card punishment for the opponent, and so on. The contact in the game is normal and is allowed as long as it is fair, that is, seeking to steal the ball, without unproportional aggressiviness. The game is on the ball, and for the ball. Otherwise it would be impossible if the players were to push and hold each other. In that sense it is similar to basketball. I think soccer and basketball are the best sports. They're kinda relatives. Both have plasticity and beauty, dribbling, are healthy for the body of those who practice them, are simple to understand and practice and are played on the ball. Not to mention that they are complementary in some kind of way: soccer for short and medium height people; and basketball for medium height and very tall people. Soccer with low score; basketball with high score. You have it all. Soccer in open stadiums, with all kinds of weather; basketball in closed arenas. And both can be played by men and women.
TLDR, but you need to generalize less. saying "Americans say the game... etc." clearly doesn't properly describe how Americans feel about soccer, as one of the matches in this video had an in person attendance of 40,000+.
Was there a review of @union stadium? Oh wait. We are the toilet paper 🧻 of MLS. Its all about ny,la,Mia, & Atlanta. Every new team last 4 yrs have been awarded the MLS cup in their 1st season.....even the upper west coast has been forgotten about. Watch somehow Cincinnati wins the MLS cup this season....facts. corrupt like fifa. Can I but the MLS cup for $50 million or does it cost more? Asking for a friend
@@nathanexplosion3412 by the look of his acct. picture i'm guessing he's just mad because the MLS has potential to outgrow the NFL or some. i don't know...
Nice to see more fans in the stands this season
Still nobody touching Atlanta yet! I am starting to think they are a unique phenomenon.
You know America is a big country when 100 miles is considered close enough for a local rivalry!
Ha! That’s nothing. Our (Atlanta) biggest local rival is 400 miles (Orlando) away, and our most storied (Red Bulls) is 800.

Thank you for this show!
so great to see fans in the stands again...atlanta was rocking!
Atlanta vs Seattle is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥
This should be a weekly episode. Nice stuff!
lol, it _is_ a weekly episode, all season.
@@douglasharley2440 ohh sorry my bad. Thanks bud.
Come On Atlanta! Let's get back on Track!
Punintended?
I'm happy the MLS is growing so much, hopefully Concacaf can start to get interesting!
Also I think it could be a catalyst to make the Club World Cup live up to the potential.

Great commentator for this review show!

Sorry I’m a Saints fan lol. Couldn’t resist
While NYC STILL with NO stadium 😤😤😤😡

Except for the Europeans...This was modeled after most top European league weekly review shows. Notice all the British accents.
Waaaaaoooo Cincinnati new stadium 😤😤😤and FC NYC when??they gonna have his onw stadium dannmmm😡 is hard to be nyc fan😔
I hope they stay at Yankee stadium. Beautiful stadium, and it has so much history
@@alternatehistorysports is about "own "not history what about something the you can call home that's history for me .... were you can make history 💪👍🏼😤
@@jahm7491 Fair enough. I hope they stay in the Bronx though, that's pretty badass.
Nice football ground. Please remove apostrophe in "welcome's."
😣
Tiene populares la cancha de cincinati????
Why is the sound quality on this so bad?
ATL
Does having English commentators make the league legit.. 😂
that situation with NYFC....goalkeeper and ricocheted ball? That was clear goal and referee committed material infringement on rules of the game
0:29 what is this song? i've heard it in a bunch of commericals and espn's mls coverage.
Miami will end up staying at Lockhart stadium forever

We will do things here the American way! If you don’t like it go somewhere else.
Ain’t no one got time to read all that
The Crew should have been promoted to MLS Western Premier League, not Austin
Do these jerks still take a knee ?
You okay, snowflake?
This league needs relegation
WHAT ! WHY ?!

Cincinnati will be a good team once they draft the first overall first round draft pick.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Draft.
MLS is such a joke
Why all the hate? Cant you just watch something else if you hate it that much?
Then if you think it's a joke then stop watching
I bet you're subscribed to this channel to get notifications just to say the same thing over and over on their new uploaded vids. You are pathetic.
