A historic win for Palace - first time beating Man United for a very long time, and finally hitting the back of the net this season. By all accounts quite lucky - a missed penalty, they probably should have had about 3 more penalties, and a classic smash and grab. But we'll take it. But that's not what I want to mention. I happened to catch some of the Cascadia Cup last night - Seattle vs Portland in MLS, the biggest rivalry in US soccer. We're not talking high quality football here, but at least there is some passion to this game. But a certain issue struck me as I was watching. I took a photo of my TV screen during the game, what do you see?
Yes, that is an awful lot of green. Seattle in green. Portland in green. The surface (maybe artificial? I know Seattle play on an artificial surface at home) is green. Very bizarre - surprised they let that happen. Seattle won by the way - but who cares.
