Haha. You keep saying this. Are you the coach? They are a good team but no where close to this video.

Samba Boyz. Champs of Icebreaker playing up a year. 39 goals for and only 2 against! Clean sheet in championship game!

SYC has a good record and we’ve played against you - SYC is a tough opponent, but to me didn’t look anything remotely like Barcelona (or Malaga) from that match. Lots of fouling and lots of effective (non-foul) pushing and winning 50-50s ... not much skill.

The samba Boyz will be good until about U12 then members will leave soccer for gangs, work, friends, etc. Their parents understand they are only good at whipping up on u little travel teams. The more serious players on the team will find better competition in the local latin leagues.

WTF talking about gangs etc
What about the U9G? Similarly physically imposing and some skill but little passing or team play involved. Will be interesting to watch the 2012s of both genders and what happens/if they remain among the best in the region.

2nd bracket of the 2011 age group. I assume that tournament organizers are starting to see that they should be playing in the highest bracket of smaller tournaments.

I mean the DC metro area and the state of Virginia. Check the records of the U9s boys and girls to date. Strong starts so far. Can they sustain it until they reach U15? Not likely based on style of play/lack of team play but will be interesting to watch nonetheless.

This is exactly what I thought when we played them. Good team at scoring but could not see any skill.

Messi? I don’t know ... they’re just one of the most famous and successful Latin soccer teams out there.

Am I missing something ? Barcelona is a European club not Latin. Anyway my guess in because Messi is from Argentina. Although that would be like the USA and Mexico connecting with Alphonso Davies because he’s from the same continent. So maybe it’s like the LeBron factor where whatever team he plays for becomes popular.

By referring to an example from a more familiar sport, you have demonstrated your ignorance of both soccer and basketball, as well as a cultural ignorance that is frankly stunning. I do not think your underlying assumption iscorrect in my experience (Latinx communities are simply more avid soccer fans across the board, and many if not the majority prefer Madrid), and the notion that Hispanic Americans are cheering on a team because they have an Argentinian is preposterous. I don’t think you appreciate the multiple national and regional rivalries among our neighbors, or how they translate into preferences in these United States. I would leave it be.
