Soccer Blog - Week 24

Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the latest article of Super Soccer Ian. Although the last round was very short, it was still quite exciting, and there was an average of about four goals per game. Let's start things off by reviewing the results from the last round.

The first match of the last round was a 3-0 win for the NE Revolution over Orlando City SC. Then, the Montréal Impact got a thrilling 4-3 win over the Chicago Fire, and the Seattle Sounders beat Toronto FC 2-1. The Philadelphia Union won 2-1 against the SJ Earthquakes, and FC Dallas beat the

Columbus Crew 3-0. Those are the most recent results, so now, let's take a look at the upcoming schedule.

The next round will begin with a matchup between the Vancouver Whitecaps and the Colorado Rapids. Then, the Portland Timbers will play Sporting KC, and the NY Red Bulls will host the Chicago Fire. The Columbus Crew and Philadelphia Union will clash at PPL Park, and FC Dallas will play host to NY City FC. The Houston Dynamo will face Real Salt Lake, and the Colorado Rapids will play DC United. The LA Galaxy will host the Montréal Impact, and the Seattle Sounders will play on the road against the SJ Earthquakes. Toronto FC will then play the NE Revolution, and Orlando City SC will host Sporting KC. Those are the most recent results, so now, let's take a look at the upcoming schedule.

This next round will be a busy one, since there are no byes for any team, and some of the teams even have two matches to play. One player that'd be worth looking at is Jesse Gonzalez. Although he's only played in three games for Dallas, he is very inexpensive at $4.2 million, and he's already earned twenty points in those three games he's played in. Another player to keep under your radar is Didier Drogba. He scored three goals to win the game against the Chicago Fire last week, and I think that he'll be very dangerous against the Galaxy next round. He's pricey at $10.2 million, but I do believe that he will score more goals for his team. One last player to consider is Clint Dempsey. He came back with a bang last round, scoring once and adding an assist to his tally, and I think that with him back in the lineup, Seattle could win their next game against the Earthquakes. Those are my MLS Fantasy tips for this upcoming round.
