Scratching the Chalkboard: FCD Goes Down Fighting

Related Topics: FC Dallas, Tesho Akindele

One day, I will be writing this at the heels of an MLS Cup victory. Alas, it is not this year, but that day will come. FC Dallas entered Sunday’s playoff match against the Seattle Sounders down 3-0 and needed at least three goals to keep the series alive. Things looked promising when Tesho Akindele found the back of the net in the 25th minute and the club entered halftime with a 1-0 lead. But a fatal mistake and the inability to finish their chances would eventually see Dallas bow out of their historic double-winning 2016 campaign.

Mauro for Mauro

Mauro Rosales has done some cameo appearances for Mauro Diaz, but this was the first time we got to see it in full action where Rosales was given the keys to offense and was tasked to drive this team to victory.
