A lot has been written about the 2-1 loss Minnesota United FC suffered in its first-ever playoff match.<\/p>\n

In short: the fortress that Allianz became during home matches did little on a night where United couldn\u2019t finish. Striker \u00c1ngelo Rodr\u00edguez probably should have had two goals before halftime, and new signing Robin Lod \u2014 who should not be criticized as much as he has been for skying a shot over the crossbarr when within six yards of the goal due to having to reach back for the ball \u2014 failed to have much of an impact this season outside of his goal in the Open Cup final.<\/p>\n

Fans didn\u2019t get to see Miguel Ibarra take to the field, though they did get to give him a signed banner of a loon fused with the Batman bat signal and plenty of hugs after the final whistle. It looks as though the fan favorite \u2014 who I used to watch back in the Blaine and Minnesota Stars days, long before any of this was thought possible \u2014 is on his way out.<\/p>\n

While the match was a bummer for home fans, it\u2019s still a success for the Loons to have made a playoff game and host it at home. Sure, they could have gone second in the table, but this year\u2019s season was a vast improvement over the past two. A number of revelations were made, and a defensive backline constructed that looks to be quite solid for at least a couple more seasons.<\/p>\n

But it was bittersweet in St. Paul.<\/p>\n

The Los Angeles Galaxy shushed United.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
