There were 13 participants for the midweek contest, a new record!
Here are the results:
- There was a triple equality at 1st place (which automatically makes the 2nd place & 3rd place prizes being added to the 1st place pot) with 5 correct predictions by @tylersr, @steem-d-anlovnit & @barcalogia. All three of them said there would be 5 games with 2.5+ goals so the tiebreaker didn't tell them apart.
- 4th place: @costanza had 4 correct predictions and got it right when calling that 6 games would have 3 or more goals scored.
- 5th place: @cranium, @baus85 & @neo-wiza also had 4 correct predictions, but @cranium busted the tiebreaker with 7 games, and @baus85 (4 games) was beaten by @neo-wiza (5 games) who came closer to the actual 6 games of 2.5+ goals.
And here are the rewards:
- 1st, 2nd & 3rd: @tylersr, @steem-d-anlovnit & @barcalogia = 2.5 STEEM each + 33,333 POCKET each + 1/3 of last post's SBD rewards for each of them
- 4th: @costanza = 2,500 POCKET
- 5th: @neo-wiza = 1,000 POCKET
Thanks!!! I'm seeing that the league results are quite random, favorites lose games more often than here in Europe :DDD
why teams don't tank here like in the NBA?? hahaha
My pleasure! You're right, it's a young and fast-growing league where everybody can beat anybody at any time. The team's relatively low salary budgets (in comparison with European clubs) help keep the parity in MLS. Matt Doyle at mlssoccer.com calculated that the ''salary cap'' in 2017 is at $5,948,000.

That's not counting the Designated Player Rule allowing each team to spend as much as they want on a maximum of three super players. It started with David Beckham in 2007. Kaká is the highest paid player in the Major League Soccer at the moment with a $7,167,500 salary.
Wow thanks for all the info!!!
i'm seeing here in Spain the coverage is growing, even some specialized websites about the MLS! :))
Nice, I didn't know there was a growing interest in Spain for MLS! Thank you too for the info! David Villa is an amazing Spanish player with New York City FC. He won last year's MVP Award and he might win it again this year! But I think Diego Valeri, the Argentinian playing with Portland Timbers, has better chances to win the title for the 2017 season.
