Indy Eleven travel to MLS club Philadelphia Union

Indy trail 1-0 at HT in Philly. Musa starting, and Collier on the pine.
Edit - Collier on at 73 mins (1-1). Still 1-1 and into ET
Edit 2 - 1-1 end of ET. Going to pens.
Edit 3 - Unfortunately Philly Union win the shootout 5-4. Neither Collier or Musa required on pens.

0-0 at HT in Louisville. Adams with a yellow. As expected Boxy didn't make the trip.
Edit - Minny win 1-0 in Louisville. Full game Adams
Edit 2 - next for Minnesota is hosting Inter Miami. Boxy verus GOAT matchup?!!


Quick glance at this Cup Round shows that overwhelmingly MLS teams (even with presumably rotated sides) are beating their USL opposition. So still a significant gap it seems between the two leagues.

Bidois starts and gets 64 mins (3-1) as Loudoun win 5-1. Lexington did go down to 10 men at 56 mins (2-1). Loudoun stay 1st in the East

Adams a full game as Louisville draw 0-0. They stay 2nd to Loudoun.

Greive on the bench as it's 1-1 at HT in San Antonio.
Edit - SA lose 1-2. They went down to 10 men late on at 89 mins (1-2). Greive on at 93 mins (1-2)

Same same. The Moose continues to start for Indy, and his Kiwi mate Collier is on the bench.
Edit - Musa a full game & a yellow in a 1-1 draw. Collier an unused sub.

Troy Putt starts for Minny II, as the central striker. 

Putt one to watch with how he goes in this MLS Next Pro League plus with the U20s. Only 18. Would have learnt alot off Monty Patterson when at Birkenhead.

Edit - Putt off at 66 mins (1-1). Finishes 1-1 and Austin II win the pen shootout

Ronan Wynne starts for Atlanta II

About an hour and a half delay for kickoff due to lightning in the area.

Match available on YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/live/o7-XF9eNB1o?si=cbeNKF9zfv3dX7rY

Match just kicked off, and conditions are heavy. Ball stopping dead in the surface with a few passes. 1-0 to Atlanta already as well, with a goalkeeping mistake off a poor pass which gets lobbed back over him.

Also just quietly, Wynne has trained with the first team the week just gone. With their first team not doing too great at the minute he's hopefully putting his name in the conversation for a chance at MLS minutes.

Wynne full game in a 3-0 win for Atlanta II. He was at RCB amongst 3 CBs.

James Bulkeley on the bench as North Texas lead 1-0 in the first half at Tacoma/Seattle II.
Edit - looks like Builkeley was an unused sub in a 3-2 win. North Texas go first in the Western Conference. They actually won the MLS Next Pro comp last year.

Watched the game while I was at work. It looked like he was playing a pretty advanced RWB role, because he was flying up that right hand flank at any opportunity he could.

One to watch for sure. He seems to have hit the ground running over there.
