Well played Vermes

The NYCFC broadcast team on YES! is v good. I clearly think this only because the color guy is British.

Agreed - PbP guy is decent, too. Still really like the Union team of Dellacamera and Pappas, but clearly more for JP. He's just the best.

What a shitty way to end a good road performance. Awful.

Absolutely gutted how that game ended

How much bigger is the Premier fields vs the MLS fields? I think this annoys me, because I feel like the MLS looks like indoor soccer compared to the normal fields I saw on the World Cup. I feel like it makes the MLS look small timey.

Tobias · « **Reply #6616 on:** April 20, 2015, 12:43:53 PM »

i can do some actual #math later, but generally mls runs a little smaller (some smaller, some larger)... mls averages around 108x68m, and epl averages around 112x74m at quick glance

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #6617 on:** April 20, 2015, 12:45:57 PM »

K. Thanks. I guess that makes the game seem faster, higher scoring, etc. So it could be a good thing too.

Tobias · « **Reply #6618 on:** April 20, 2015, 12:47:52 PM »

for reference, sporting park is about the same length as the bottom-half epl pitches (

), but a few meters narrower

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #6619 on:** April 20, 2015, 12:48:37 PM »

Interesting. Maybe I was just really pak'd on Saturday and it looked smaller to me.

actually the smaller the pitch the more defensive the game is, in soccer and hockey scoring thrives in space

That makes sense. I saw a replay of Barcelona today at the gym. They were setting up a lot of plays.

Hey guys, I'm trying!

Tobias · « **Reply #6624 on:** April 20, 2015, 07:22:12 PM »

hmm, did some #math and i'm glad i did! (didn't verify all the dimensions)
