SKC unceremoniously sent St Louis back across the state to start their offseason after a fairly comprehensive 2-1 scoreline that honestly flattered their opponent. It was a competitive affair for about 20 minutes until SKC settled in and fairly significantly controlled the match the rest of the way.
Logan Ndenbe cemented his status as "Playoff Logan" right before rupturing his ACL and somehow playing for another 40+ minutes on it. It was an insane display and a heartbreaking injury for a player that was in great form.
Tactical Corner focuses on the differences we will see with Tim Leibold on the field in Ndenbe's stead, and whether that will actually potentially be a positive given SKC's potential future opponents, as well as what that means for the depth chart at the position going forward.
Potpourri covers a number of news topics of the week like the 3-game 1st round MLS Playoff format, the use of VAR, the USWNT hiring a coach, and what the USMNT will look like in upcoming Nations League matches and the upcoming Olympics as they attempt to build depth in the roster looking towards the 2026 World Cup.
