Miami FC 2 Montreal Impact 1 in pictures and video

The Blues came out looking for a 'W' this Saturday and they got it, as they beat the Montreal Impact 2-1 at Lockhart Stadium. Miami scored its first goal off of a Christian Gomez free kick that curved around the wall and snuck in. It was a wonderful strike! Montreal later tied but an inspired Abe Thompson scored off of a long pass by JP Rodriguez that was enough to give Miami 3 points and an outside chance of making the playoffs.

Paulo Jr set to play with Real Salt Lake vs Seattle tonight?

We have learned this morning out of Ft Lauderdale that Miami FC's top scorer this season, Paulo Araujo Jr will be ready to suit up for Real Salt Lake as early as today's game versus the Seattle Sounders.

Recent Rumors had placed Paulo with the L.A. Galaxy, but it seems Paulo was being shopped around to other MLS teams and Real Salt Lake seems to have been the team to sign the player on loan for the remainder of the season.

Real Salt Lake has been hit by numerous injuries and this could lead to the inclusion of Paulo in the line up or on the bench.
Real Salt Lake injury report HERE

Miami FC needs to play with Huevos! Watch party at America's Backyard By Burrito

Hola Amigos! Burrito been a patients dawg this season. Burrito no bite anyones, nor has Burrito done pee on anyones tires in parking lot this season and si, Burrito no hump no legs either... yet. Burrito has come to point where he is mad as a chingado! Why? Because Miami FC can't wins, thats why! Burrito really, really, really think it time for Miami FC to start playing with Huevos! Si, Burrito be first one to says it. If any of you Miami FC players read Burrito's blog, then time to look down an see if you got two down theres!
Why? How many time you homeboys going to tease Burrito with all these ties? Sure, we undefeated pero that still don't fly with Burrito when we only tie at home!

This year we finally have a great team on papers starting with one time MLS MVP Christian Gomez. We also have players with mucho experience in MLS like Abe Thompson, Chris Gbandi, Mike Randolph and Lance Parker. So why the slow start?
In defense we look strong starting with Caleb Patterson who has been solid in goal so fars. Burrito can't complain about the back cause they doing okey dokey.
From the midfield up it seems to be the problemo. Only 3 goles so far one by Mister Abe Thompson in the last game so we hope now that Abe score one we hope Abe score many more as he be our best hope up tops!
The rest of the goles come from Christian Gomez and Edward Santilez. Burrito believe Miami FC need to half more shots from the outside. Then we can score like crazys!

Ok so a word from Burrito to the players... "Time to grab your cojones before game and go out there and make those pinches NSC Stars your bitches!"

The Blues visit the NSC Stars this Saturday May 15, 2010 at Minnesota so the official watch party will be at America's Backyard in Downtown Ft Lauderdale. Be sure to say you are there for the Miami FC game at the entrance and you will get 1 FREE DRINK! Si, you hear it from Burrito first! The Watch Party will be in the upstairs bar as usual. Game starts at 8PM so be there or be squares!
Vamos Miami! Juguemos con huevos!

Miami FC vs FC Tampa fan videos and much more...

Before we jump into the game videos you need to head over to Miami Soccer Fan and read the Ultras game day review along with an after game interview with Miami FC's captain Jarryd "The Hammer" Goldberg. Check it out HERE

Kenn.com/the_blog has put up a Pro Soccer Attendance Figures chart. It's still a little early in the Soccer season to put this up and see how teams are really doing at the gates, but it's pretty cool anyway! Now I know I'm going to get criticism for this one but the old Miami Fusion's attendance was higher then at-least 4 other teams in MLS today! It just tells me that MLS made a mistake pulling the plug on this market. Now on the other hand... You want to see how the Blues are doing in attendance? See it HERE

The 2014 World Cup might just be played in the good old U.S. of A after all! Seems Brazil is behind in preparation and the world governing body FIFA is not too happy about it. Some of you might remember that back in 1986 the World Cup was to be held in Colombia. But, they couldn't do it for one reason or another so it was held in Mexico instead.

Following are game day videos of the Miami FC Blues versus Tampa Bay Rowdies that took place at Lockhart Stadium this past Saturday.

Blues undefeated but winless... Game day pictures

Miami FC remains undefeated, but remain winless in three games so far this season. It didn't help that star midfielder Christian Gomez was ejected early in the second half leaving the team with only 10 players. Tampa took advantage of the situation and leveled the score. For more on the game go HERE

The crowd that gathered for the game enjoyed the pre-game tailgate freebies and supported their teams. Tampa fans came down in large numbers. It added to a great ambiance that for the most part were friendly.
