1st half quick thoughts

Well three things really come to mind as I think about what I just saw in the first half:

1. Salazar has to call it both ways, if touching Blanco is a foul then those calls have to be given to RSL as well. How many kicks to the shins do our guys have to take to get a call? I don’t expect any favors but it has to be called even.
2. RSL needs to find a way to get the right equipment, too many times this year they have slipped and slided around the pitch and tonight it almost cost them.
3. Finish, Finish, Finish. We are controlling the match but we have to find a way to get past Busch.

RSL has dominated possession and with only one real chance for Chicago it is clear that RSL is the more aggressive team and if they can find a way to finish well then we can expect to be playing next weekend. I think we need more effort out of the midfield, they have shown moments of brilliance but only Will Johnson has been going at top speed from the first whistle until the halftime whistle. Oh and somebody mark Blanco, all the time he hasn’t been able to bite us yet, so let’s keep it that way.
