    One story missed from last week. The record attendance for a women’s game which had been set at the 1999 World Cup final at the Rose Bowl was broken at the Barcelona – Real Madrid Champions League game.

    I love that the Queen City News is on a first-name basis with our players. I guess their readership knows the MLS rosters inside and out?
    “Kai fired one down the left line from where he was defending to Sergio, who calmly set it to the middle of the box where Julian finished the job.”

      I read that too and laughed….looks like they were simply parroting the post from Union, and didn’t bother to look up the players full names.

      Can I just say… I really appreciate the quality of writing we have here in Philly Soccer Page. It’s worlds better than 90% of the local articles we see from elsewhere.
