I watched this game because I had never watched an American football (soccer) game. It was pretty good, I'd say. Not amazing, but certainly better than I expected.
aw man this was such a great game i remember getting my head shaved in a crew cut for the game, i had no doubt we were going to win and we have a very good chance to repeat GO CREW!
No excuses or lamenting about the past; it is time that the NY/ NJ Redbulls actually lift a real trophy and look more competitive around the likes of DC United, NYCFC, Columbus Crew, Atlanta United, Toronto FC, etc..
It's an anomaly that the one time my Red Bulls made it to the MLS Cup was as the _Western_ Conference finalist, and in a year when they barely qualified for the playoffs, as opposed to one of their 3 Supporters Shield seasons.
It seem MLS teams are not bad, and i'm pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere in this stadium :) In France we call the fans "the 12th man" because it's very important to support his team with tifos, songs and stuffs, at home and on tour ! Sometimes fans can make their team win the game -by pressure on the other team-, I've already seen that :)
You should have heard it. I flew out from C-bus with tons of other. We were singing and dance and chanting the whole game. I felt like home. Never have experienced a game like that. Felt just like EPL. youtube the crowd at the cup.
In order to make the MLS better, I think that we should all as Americans take pride in what WE have created. Instead of always comparing it to England, France, Germany, Spain, etc we should take pride in what WE have, not how far "behind" it is to those leagues. theres really no such thing as "behind" when u think about it that way
Schelotto just keeps winning where ever he goes doesn't he.!!? Wow...I love how big MLS has gotten but I was sadden how there was empty seats for a Championship game.!!
hahaha i was at the game it was freakin awesome!!!! i was in the very top row of the NY Red Bull crowd singing and chanting along, right under the geeks with the laptops lol no offense....
Ok that's what I thought..I figured their was some sort of system back then in the League..but Columbus has always been in the Eastern Conference..They have been in it since 1996..so it made since that at least they were in the final
Back then, it was the top three teams in each conference making it automatically, then the next two teams regardless of conference. NY was the second-best 'wild card' team, but since they were 5th in the East, they were moved to the West bracket.
no importa quien gano , lo k importq es k la mls tuvo su mejor temporada en muchos years. don't matter who won . what matters is that the mls had its best season so far,,,,,,,,, wouldn't you amigos agree ???
Was at the game. They deserved it. NY ran out of steam before the second half. What's up with the HORRIBLE compression on this video, though?? Can hardly see anything.
hahahahaha! i enjoy reading the comments criticizing the MLS. is it bad at the moment..yes? but it is growing and will keep growing, it's not going to just disappear. just because the MLS isn't as big as your countries leagues doesn't mean you have to demean are's. shut the hell up, and enjoy the fact that this wonderful sport is growing throughout the world. see ya!
Live and let live. Let the MLS grow. Who can have a problem with that? I don't think the MLS is worse than a lot of other leagues in Europe like the Czech league or the Austrian League.
they only thing i wish mls did was grant the team that reached the finals and had the best record in the regular season say the team who finished first made it to the final they would get to host the cup.
well i play soccer too and im pretty good i play for two teams my school which won state and my club who was second were pretty good too and im a girl. USA ROX!
Can someone please tell me why L.A hosted the final? We dont really care about columbus or New York. I dont really think it feels special when you win something far away from your home. They should of atleast of hosted the final somewhere in the east coast.
ke dramatico el final y siempre haciendo un golazo ke decide el rumbo del partido como en la final Atlante vs Pumas, ke un golazo del Hobbit Bermudez les dio el titulo a los Atlantistas y Ludueña en el Santos vs Cruz Azul.
It's OK. After all we were a wild card; the important is that we reached the final for the first time, and we will be competing in the Concacaf Champions next year.......... GO RED BULLS!!! We need a Riquelme pronto.
My oh my the memories. That Crew team was truly, truly special. I'll never forget that season. The glory days. Go Crew!
Nathaniel McFarland what do you think now?
Nathaniel McFarland, you are in the conference final this year.
Bojo David what a dumbass you must feel like now😆
@@Lucas-ho9hj how do you feel now?
turns out we've got a lot more glory now! 3X CUP CHAMPIONS!
Wow. This was 10 years ago. Incredible
I Wanted Red Bull New York to win🤦
Now 15 years lol
Higuain is a close second, but players like Schelotto don't come around very often...he was really A gem for the Crew
Guillermo Barros Schelotto 💙💛💙💛💙💛
González Diego 😁😁
@@JdDiehl 👌👌👌🏆🏆🏆🏆💛💙💛💙🇦🇷
Since then Crew has had Higuain, Zelarayan, Cucho Hernandez.. meanwhile DC United has been entrenched in mediocrity.
@@jimmye.787 Yep
Sigi Schmidt RIP thanks for one of the best days ever!
12 years later an we won another MLS cup
Yes!!!! 😄😄😄
yes
Just took another one in 2023 ✊🏼
I watched this game because I had never watched an American football (soccer) game. It was pretty good, I'd say. Not amazing, but certainly better than I expected.
Guillermo is the goat! i never forget when he played in Boca Juniors ♥
aw man this was such a great game i remember getting my head shaved in a crew cut for the game, i had no doubt we were going to win and we have a very good chance to repeat GO CREW!
Who's watching this after the crew won 2020 mls cup
After 2023 mls cup 😁😁🖤💛
16 years later and the Red Bulls are back in the final at the same stadium…..
No excuses or lamenting about the past; it is time that the NY/ NJ Redbulls actually lift a real trophy and look more competitive around the likes of DC United, NYCFC, Columbus Crew, Atlanta United, Toronto FC, etc..
LA Galaxy already won 4 or 5 MLS cup finals; seriously, how many more trophies do they need !? 😡🙄
@@DmitriyK12now it's 6,
0-2 in mls cup finals, and 0-2 in us open cup finals,
To go from this to 70k in Atlanta 10 years later. Unreal
It's an anomaly that the one time my Red Bulls made it to the MLS Cup was as the _Western_ Conference finalist, and in a year when they barely qualified for the playoffs, as opposed to one of their 3 Supporters Shield seasons.
You know you're a Columbus fan when this comes up on your feed 15 years later lol
I miss sports. The Buckeyes, Indians, CBJ, and Crew SC
Guillermo lo mejor de la mls .El unico que me hace ver el futbol de Estados Unidos.
i agree, these should be held at night, and (this might be only me) a different day besides sunday as well.
It seem MLS teams are not bad, and i'm pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere in this stadium :)
In France we call the fans "the 12th man" because it's very important to support his team with tifos, songs and stuffs, at home and on tour ! Sometimes fans can make their team win the game -by pressure on the other team-, I've already seen that :)
3rd goal... pure genius!!!
Neutral sites were so dumb.
Also wow it was impossible to watch these nightlight on 240p 😭
Guillermo Barros Schelotto 💛💙💛💙💛💙🏆🏆🏆🏆
You should have heard it. I flew out from C-bus with tons of other. We were singing and dance and chanting the whole game. I felt like home. Never have experienced a game like that. Felt just like EPL. youtube the crowd at the cup.
What chant are they singing at the 6:00 minute mark?
Columbus Columbus whereeva u go well follow well follow Columbus Columbus Columbus I think
la asistencia del guille en el tercer gol, impecable!
Anyone here in 2021?
hombre. No soy argentino, pero Schelotto es un jugadorazo, en boca Juniors metio mas de 100 goles.

Strange looking back at this comment 14 years later
In what city the next MLS final is going to be held? New York City? (for the new stadium)
2020🙌🙌🙌
Yes!!! ⚽⚡⚽⚡⚽⚡
A great moment in Columbus history. Will never forget it as long as I live. GO CREW!
el tercer gol es una prueba de el talento de Barros Schelloto.
Who’s here after they defeat the Sounders
Me! 😄😄😄
Columbus Crew Champions 2020 ⭐⭐
2023 🏆🏆🏆
his Name is Guillermo Barros Schelotto
And the teams meet again in the playoffs - should be a great conference final.
hahaha i was at the game
it was freakin awesome!!!!
i was in the very top row of the NY Red Bull crowd singing and chanting along, right under the geeks with the laptops lol no offense....
Does anybody know how the Crew played the Red Bulls in an MLS cup?? there both MLS Eastern Conference teams
The Red Bulls were a Wild Card team. It was weird and complicated back then.
Ok that's what I thought..I figured their was some sort of system back then in the League..but Columbus has always been in the Eastern Conference..They have been in it since 1996..so it made since that at least they were in the final
Jd Dehl I think Columbus played in a different conference, I believe there used to be 3
Back then, it was the top three teams in each conference making it automatically, then the next two teams regardless of conference. NY was the second-best 'wild card' team, but since they were 5th in the East, they were moved to the West bracket.
@Hitmonchan107 that would be dumb and not fix anything. the playoff structure is fine as it is right now, but the schedules are screwed up
He wasn't wrong... Guillermo Barros Schelotto was the captain that season...
^o^
Guilleeeeeermooooo! Guilleeeeeeermo! Grande Idolo!
no importa quien gano , lo k importq es k la mls tuvo su mejor temporada en muchos years. don't matter who won . what matters is that the mls had its best season so far,,,,,,,,, wouldn't you amigos agree ???
OMG Very Awesome
Guillemo is the best player. Captain does not exist. aguante guille!!
The Champions of the 2008 MLS Cup are the Columbus Crew.
Crew Forever!
Last goal was incredible.
Sigi the Crew needs you back. Your the best .
240P really the best quality you could upload MLS?
I really wanted the Red Bulls to win, but Columbus and Schelotto were too much for them to handle.
Congrats Columbus
I'm watching this 4 hours before MLS cup 2012. We are never going to win a cup. #NYRB
however, the formats for schedules and playoffs is a little screwed up
Why is the quality so damn terrible?
2008 CE.
🖤💛⭐️💛🖤
🖤💛🏆💛🖤
Just got goosebumps again......ahhh such beauty!
nice attandance 2700 because they both came from far state to play in The home Deport Centre.
i love crew !!!
@CodeXanadu I agree, I think they are trying to do the whole NFL super bowl thing and I don't like it
Great Columbus Crew Team
what the hell...is Pacheco gonna play for NY or NOT?
I was there!
Que jugador el guille
brilliant crew!
AGUANTE EL GUIILLLEEEEE!!!!
a song for guillermo barros schelotto!
GUIILLEEE! GUILLEEE! OLEEE OLE OLE OLEEE! GUILLEEE GUILLLEEEE!
isn't it great when the commissioner doesn't know who the captain of the best team is.
What the hell was the goalie doing on the first goal turn to position yourself
Was at the game. They deserved it. NY ran out of steam before the second half. What's up with the HORRIBLE compression on this video, though?? Can hardly see anything.
Last time a team that won the MLS Cup title actually...deserved to win it.
how does it work out that we always see each other in the comments?.
hahahahaha! i enjoy reading the comments criticizing the MLS. is it bad at the moment..yes? but it is growing and will keep growing, it's not going to just disappear. just because the MLS isn't as big as your countries leagues doesn't mean you have to demean are's. shut the hell up, and enjoy the fact that this wonderful sport is growing throughout the world. see ya!
no they werent... what game did you watch? ny never dominated..
how? Eastern VS Western.
Miralo al Guille... siempre dando la nota...
Live and let live. Let the MLS grow. Who can have a problem with that? I don't think the MLS is worse than a lot of other leagues in Europe like the Czech league or the Austrian League.
the game should be on the night , it would look much better
That, and Hejduk was actually the captain.
In 2024 , this is a tough match to watch; here is hoping and prayinh that the NY Redbulls finally win the thr darn MLS cup trophy.😅😬
I knew Colombus was going to win....what a great game....way to go Colombus!!
i know if you love soccer you love soccer doesnt matter where ur from!
they only thing i wish mls did was grant the team that reached the finals and had the best record in the regular season say the team who finished first made it to the final they would get to host the cup.
cool
well, i kinda expected ny to lose...they are simply outclassed by columbus.. good game ny, maybe next time
i did expect cepero to do better though
well i play soccer too and im pretty good i play for two teams my school which won state and my club who was second were pretty good too and im a girl. USA ROX!
Haven’t started watching but already know NJRB are gonna lose 😂😂
Can someone please tell me why L.A hosted the final? We dont really care about columbus or New York. I dont really think it feels special when you win something far away from your home. They should of atleast of hosted the final somewhere in the east coast.
GO CREW!
ke dramatico el final y siempre haciendo un golazo ke decide el rumbo del partido como en la final Atlante vs Pumas, ke un golazo del Hobbit Bermudez les dio el titulo a los Atlantistas y Ludueña en el Santos vs Cruz Azul.
UHhh I don't care who won but nice Game!!!
wow this was 16 years ago
beautiful headers by the crew in the second half. The better team won. (this is not coming from a Columbus fan)
Great game but make it at night so the atmosphere can be better.More people would show up trust me.
It's OK. After all we were a wild card; the important is that we reached the final for the first time, and we will be competing in the Concacaf Champions next year.......... GO RED BULLS!!! We need a Riquelme pronto.
Guillermo es un genio, Maradona deberia darle una chance a guille en la seleccion Argentina
Don, here's a hint: the guy wearing the armband.
CC's answer to the equalizer was like within a minute lol
awesome game
I can bet any amount of money that Sigi takes Seattle to the cup this year. ( Or at least very close.)
This game was great many shots and a lot of stuff in it i won 10 bucks woot
LETS GO CREW
jojo que grande shelloto!
agreed!
