I'm really upset. I am in Houston next week, and planned to go to this. I was just going to drive to Dallas. However, I could only go from April 5th onward, so decided not to.

I'm in Dallas with our U16's and U17's, planning on watching the United boys on 1st and 2nd, some good teams here this year. Too jet lagged to write much more tonight, will post any pics I get.

Please do. I'm still gutted I can't go!
 
Good to see you're promoted mo0.
 
If Larnell Cole has traveled he must be near a return from injury which is good news.

Not sure if we'll do ourselves justice with that squad though, as its heavily stacked with defenders and its likely some will be deployed out of their natural positions which usually makes some of our football pretty incohesive.

Interesting to see who the guests/trialists will be.
 
I'm guessing the Brazilian lads will be a part of this.

What are the criterias for the players to participate? Just wondering as some of your best talents are missing
 
According to the commentator United's players play in the "UEFA championship" (whatever that is) while the Dallas kids go to high school. He's trying to justify the difference between the two teams, I think.

United won 2-0. A goal each for the Keanes.
 
didn't realize it's dallas cup time...i'd have gone today. my son played in it and our team housed the el salvador u17s several years ago. awesome tournament and experience.
 
We didn't get to game today as only finished our game at 4:30pm and kids were shattered. Had a good day beating Houston Dynamo academy 4-2. Pity we missed the United boys, will try later in the week. Everton look strong, saw them at registration and were surprised Ross Barklay was here.

Match Report here: http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/soccer/post/_/id/14948/uniteds-keane-twins-down-fc-dallas-academy

Zeki Fryers set up W. Keane's first on 10 mins and a Luke Giverin corner was headed home by Mike on 52 mins. Ryan Tunnicliffe was booked on 78 mins.

We now play Santa Clara Sporting this afternoon as the CS Cartagines team had travel problems and couldn't get to the tournament on time.
 
Santa Clara Sporting are a good side. be interesting to see how things pan out. heavily hispanic, but well managed from youth to adult.
 
Does that link show the Everton games too mo0?

Nice to see Barkley on the scoresheet and a win for us, thought he'd be a bit too good for it myself, but i suppose it's the experience of playing in different climates and against continental opposition.

there won't be any streams today, as all games are outside the main stadium. i think they're choosy about who is shown though. would love to see Everton matches though! some quality English youngsters there. shame George Green didn't travel.

Cheers for the info. Yeah, heard Green was called up to England u-16's

We (Everton) are beating Kashiwa Reysol 3-2, Barkley with 1 and Forrester with 2. Apparently Reysol are playing good football though.

Good for updates ; http://twitter.com/#!/DallasCupLive

EDIT: Geez, getting beat 4-3 now.
 
We beat Santa Clara Sporting 5-2 it seems. Can't find match report or anything though. Guess they will be around tomorrow.

I managed to watch some of today's game as my son was playing on the next pitch so before our U16's game I got in 25 mins or so. Surprised we conceded two as Santa Clara never got near the ball when I was watching. Got some good photos so will post in AM as stuffed on Ribs and need some kip.!

Also nice Dallas Reds flag on the fence, today and probably flying high somewhere tonight after the Ewood Park result came through...!

So Tom Clare's match report slightly off in terms of stats

Still trying to work out subs but Ekangemene booked later in game.
 
top stuff Mr. MUJAC - thank you for that.

i get ever so tickled when i see a thoroughly English lineup like that :)

great to see Cole score as well!

Giverin for Fornasier seems accurate, so I'm assuming Ekangamene came on for Massacci - logic being Tom Clare said Giverin started when it was Massacci, and also said that Charni replaced Giverin.
