3 insane goals and 1 penalty, all action first half. The blitz tactics from Santander were really fun to watch, overloading in attacking areas to seemingly surprise Villarreal. After about 40 minutes, there was a clear drop off from Racing, probably caused by the intense start, which meant they shipped two right before halftime. It was great to see the Racing defensive discipline in the second half after the capitulation at the end of the first. Overall, a strong effort vs the third place team in La Liga 2025-26. If you had told me Racing got a draw out of this before the game, I’d have signed up for that every day of the week. Having led 2-0 though, there is a slight bitter taste in the mouth.

I’m already done with Enzo Maresca

This one went off the rails in the last ten minutes; Austin take the 3 points somehow after looking much worse for 80 minutes (Argentina??). The 100 degree (38 for you celsioids) heat probably caught up to Seattle at that point in the game and they lost focus and composure because of it.
