I’ll update the thread as details become available. You still have time to make it to Reuben’s!
I’ll make it to Reuben’s to watch a game one of these days. I’m just 2 blocks away. And the fact that the “Hot” filter showed me this is amazing, considering how insanely close this is to me.
You gotta promise to come if we make the final 💯
Are you there? Is it packed?
It’s definitely standing room only, but there is still standing room to be had
Also, if you haven’t been to a home game at Interbay yet, you should check it out. It’s just a few stops on the D and tons of fun. Make sure to watch out for ticket releases for next season since they sell out quickly!
Villages FC up 1-0. As far as I can tell Ballard would win the tiebreaker, based on PPG (2.58 vs 2.25), if indeed that’s how home field is determined. If, of course, the results hold - still lots of time.
1-1 now
Here for it! Just got back from a camping trip so will be watching from home.
Did we ever figure out where the final would be? Do we think it would be at the home stadium of the higher seeded team?
I think it’ll be at the home stadium of the highest-seeded team, but I’m also guessing that the seeding algorithm is gonna be pretty opaque.
As best I can tell:
- Division winners are 1 seeds
- Divisional runner ups are 2 seeds
- Wild cards are 3 seeds
- Head to head is the first tiebreaker
- PPG is the second tiebreaker
- Goal difference is the third tiebreaker (averaged by # of games if different numbers of games were played)
- Goals scored is the fourth tiebreaker (averaged by # of games if different numbers of games were played)
- More stuff
- Sometimes they decide to do different things depending on travel distances or whatever. #USL2
I’m still holding out hope for a home national final
Oh man Declan was so close. Good save but right at him.
The guy next to the goalie looks taller than Stas!
GOALLLLLLLLL! Against the run of play but who cares!
Goal 9’ Onodera
Ballard 1 - 0 FCB
Too close for comfort - cleared off the line. But in at halftime up 1-0!
Watching soccer on a football field is so confusing; I don’t understand how the players keep the lines straight.
It’s really annoying. Wish they would pick locations with soccer specific fields for the playoffs
And they even mentioned it on the broadcast. Not sure if they have capacity minimums for the playoffs, but I can think of at least one soccer specific pitch around here…
How on earth is that not violent conduct?!!
Decky coming in for PK
Yikes! See it out, boys!

There’s a FCB player down cramping in the 42’. Here’s the weather conditions
