What happened?
A win is a win. I'm going to the game on the 10th so if they could just manage to win that one, I'd be much obliged.
Around the 60th minute Vanney had 3subs ready. It took forever to get the substitution. Fans were yelling, etc, but for some reason the refs took forever. Then the subs came, one of them: Fagundez for Boyd. Sub was made.
Then not long after the sub was made, it was announced the sub for Boyd was being removed, and Boyd re-entered the match and Fagundez went back to the bench.
Later in the match it was seen that Fagundez was again readied for substitution, but it never happened, as the refs did not allow it.
Long story short (behind the scenes) Fagundez former number with Austin was #14. With the G's he's wearing #21 (IIRC).
The refs/league said during the match that Fagundez was still #14 according to the MLS office, and not #21....hence why they yanked him off the field after he was subbed on. The G's had equipment manager quickly make a #14 shirt for Fagundez so that he can be subbed on later in the match. Fagundez put on the shirt, and was readied to be subbed, but refs/MLS said that the G's already have/had a #14 still on the roster (Chicha). However he is on season ending long term injury status.....but I guess his number does not come off the roster?
Somebody at the G's or at MLS screwed this one up. Looks really bad.
