With an inordinate amount of cross-conference games this week, the rooting interests are pretty clear.
Go NYCFC, beat Portland!
The San Jose Earthquakes visit Toronto FC on Saturday (2:00 PM. MLS Live). San Jose currently are six points back of the Sounders on the same amount of games played and sit in seventh place in the Western Conference. TFC lead the Supporters’ Shield with 56 points from 27 played. Go Toronto, the Sounders have already proven an MLS Cup can be won there and we might as well put an end to the Goonies.
The Rapids getting an away point in Houston would be good for the Sounders’ chance to win the West.
