knocks off MSU 1-0!

Those kits that WMU has are sick.

**** the Big 10. **** the Spartans. **** the Wolverines.

Go Broncos! Go MAC!

Awesome win! And I agree, their kit looks great.

Have beat them pretty consistently past few years. Glad to rake up the W's vs them.

WMU Men's Soccer is on an 11 game winning streak against in-state opponents.

At least that would create some urgency-action.

Otherwise it's like 90 minutes of punts.

Know who the most unnecessary person at an athletic event is?

Unless you understand the game you need to sit down old man. You don’t know what you are talking about. Soccer is the most popular game in the world and it’s not even closed.

I’m sure you love watching a baseball game that has a “World Series” that has only one country.

The Premier League (not a particularly high scoring league) averages about 3 goals per game, so saying most games end up 1-0 is nonsense

"closed"?

I spent 18 months as a youngster in Nigeria attending an English school playing Soccer, Cricket, Rugby while my dad (WMU professor) was helping build an Industrial Technology school there.

I also had to teach it for many years. One of my daughters earned two varsity HS letters in it so I also had to watch it.

I understand the game. I understand compared to Football, Basketball, yes even Baseball Soccer is as exciting as watching grass grow or paint dry.

American football has only 11 minutes of actual action on average. Soccer is great for tv with no commercial breaks and the entire game lasts less than 2 hours almost every time.

NEVERTHELESS - as a Bronco glad WMU Soccer is doing well including shutting out the Spartoonies.

So uh anyway. Congrats WMU Soccer!

Soccer is not even in the top four.

I have been hearing for over 50 years (when Pele came to play in first US professional league) how Soccer was going to become as popular in US as it is in rest of the world.

Hasn't happened yet and seriously doubt it ever will.

As my rugby friends from the UK say…. American football is nothing but a bunch of pu@@sies with pads on.

American football is a dying sport. Parents are scared to let their kids play and high school teams can’t field 3 levels. In 10 years it will be only 7 man football for most high schools.

American football fans who belittle and mock association football have tiny penises.

And you know that - how?

Personal experience?

So you're confirming?

You're the insecure prick who wantonly goes into a thread where fans are celebrating the men's soccer team's success and ridicules the sport. Most of us enjoy both sports and have fun watching and playing both. You don't see soccer fans going into football threads and calling the sport boring, stupid, or CTE factories.

Hence football fans who hate on soccer having small penises. You perhaps should look in the mirror and reevaluate your behavior, but I doubt you will.

Beat Wisconsin 2-1 !!! Congratulations to Men's soccer!!

Fantastic! Any win over the Big Ten is great news.

They didn't just win. They did it on a literal buzzer beater (NCAA doesn't use running clock like the rest of the soccer world)

But soccer is boring!!

Congrats to the team. Big couple wins.
