Well, that was something. Felt smash and grab, reminiscent of the way the 2015 early season Caps. Outpossessed and outplayed, it almost felt as half the team wasn’t there and relied on 3 major saves by Ousted to bail them out.
Fielding a weakened lineup because of Gold Cup absences (Waston, Davies, Teibert, deJong and Adekugbe) which saw Jacobson in central defense again, partnering with Parker while being flanked by Nerwinski and Harvey, Laba and Tchani sitting right in front of the back 4. With Reyna not quite ready to start, Robbo inserted Mezquida into the starting 11, being flanked by Techera and Bolanos with Montero in front of them.
