The part that is truly news: they game was settled by playing soccer, and not the scissors, paper, stone nonsense that ends so many matches.

Keep in mind this is soccer in California. A game generally played by children with little interest by adult natives.

BTW “Football rules” - “Soccer sucks”

Mate,you would probably enjoy the version played in Scotland and Britain.

Fast paced and exciting with much less of the diving and petulance of the European game.Perhaps not as skilful but more watchable...

It’s a sport without TV commercials. Perhaps that’s why you don’t know about it.

During the fall, University of Southern California football fans troop into Bodean's Barbecue in London, one of the few places in the UK where one can watch the Trojans play.

Mate,we know you dont like ‘soccer’. And thats fine.

So stop posting your silly comments please.I hate baseball but dont feel the need to ridicule the sport.

p.s the attendance was over 15,000 in fact.Rangers play in Scotland to an average of 50,000.
