I watched soccer get taken over three years ago by the dads who want style points added to how we judge a soccer match. If that doesn't work, the same clowns tell us you need to have a 4.4 GPA to be truly the best. "We lost to those physical hockey soccer players. We played soccer the right way but lost." Please, spare me this "whacko berry" way to make excuses when your team loses.

I first heard "they might have won but that's not real soccer" sometime around 2000. Somewhere around 2005 I was at a meeting of local coaches and board members and someone said things would be better if we left it up to "soccer people".

Pretty sure most everyone has followed that debacle on social media and other forums. Long and short is UCLA players and parents instigated the situation and KM reacted and got lambasted because nobody knew the circumstances. Bad look for both sides but the parents involved were the true embarrassment

Kind of surprising that MF took the time to post something attacking on social media about it - maturity and wisdom might suggest the 48 hour rule on a devastating loss

I have no idea what happened, other than the PK save? Please, spill the tea for the rest of us.

Let me be first to make the prediction that the UCLA kneelers will not win a national championship in 2019. The big game choke fest by a certain player will continue.

I was the first and only one bold enough to make the prediction. Suck it MAP and good riddance to you and your spawn.
 
KM was arrogant, confident and may have grown some male gonads tonight (ala Hope Solo).

Best team won today. Pepperdine should take pride in giving them their only blemish.

Early WCC prediction 2020- Pepperdine will win the WCC, followed by Santa Clara.
 
I agree that the best team won. Stanford played great once they got used to the heavy pressure and started connecting passes. I would like to give a shout out to Sierra Enge. She subbed in at the #6 and her calm collection and distribution should get her a starting slot next year.

While the broadcast production was pretty good, they spent too much time NOT following the play, especially in the first half.
