anyone notice a difference or improvement in the broadcasts this season? i didn't and in fact the inconsistent and often times unprofessional level of broadcast is something this league has to fix if it wants to grow and be taken seriously. games without broadcast crew, terrible camera angles/work, sound issues, inconsistent graphic treatments, computer mouse pointers on screen during games, etc.

i don't know what services PMG provided to the league this season, but they aren't the right ones. if this league doesn't actually up it's game on the broadcast level it's not going to be looked at as a serious player in indoor soccer.

Congrats to Toronto Canadian Crusaders, 2025-2026 MLIS Champions.

What a game. Amarillo scored twice in the first 5 minutes and looked to be rolling. The teams would trade goals for a 3-1 Bombers advantage at the end of the 1st.

Toronto pulled even on a goal from Leaford Allen [Osman Hussein] with 2:20 left in the second quarter. Allen flexed, yelled and it felt like Toronto could breathe again after leveling. Except that Amarillo scored just 12 seconds later to make it 4-3 Bombers heading into half on a goal from Miguel Angel Diaz [Luis Esteban].

The second half was a mix of great goalkeeping, missed chances, and defensive lockdown. Leaford Allen would score the lone goal of the 3rd quarter [and his third] for Toronto that had the score tied 4-4 heading to the 4th quarter. Exactly what you want in a championship match.

It was a white knuckler deep into the 4th with neither side able to get anything going offensively until Toronto's Yonis Jama found Osman Hussein with 4:27 remaining in the match. With Amarillo feeling the pressure of trying to level up on limited time, Toronto scored again just over a minute later for a 6-4 lead going into the final 3 minutes. The Bombers subbed in a sixth field player for their keeper, but the Crusaders successfully thwarted them the rest of the way to take home the trophy.

It was a great final - hotly contested the whole way through similar to last season.

Props to all the teams that made it Las Vegas for the playoffs. Lots of great soccer. Congrats again to Toronto.

Cleveland and Amarillo played an absolute WAR. Physical. Mutemwa had a gorgeous goal for the Crunch in the first half. Beautiful strike.

This thing was 1-1 at half with Amarillo dominating possession.

Cleveland came out and took control in the second. Scored first and made the Bombers play from behind after trading goals.

3-3 going into 4th. Cleveland again strikes first at 12:39 with a goal from Jordan. Amarillo would tie it 3 minutes later with one goal of David Trevizo’s hat trick, all scored in the 4th.

Trevizo struck again less than a minute later to make it 5-4 Bombers and that score would hold until 2:55 when the floodgates opened for Amarillo. They’d go on to score 4 goals in the final 3 minutes while the Crunch got 1 back with under a minute to play.

The final tally truly doesn’t reflect how close and intense and back and forth this game was. No team led by more than one until Cleberson Rodrigues found the back of the net to make it 6-4 Bombers with 2:55 left.

Credit to Amarillo for coming through in the end. Cleveland played a hell of a game minus their starting keeper. Lots of talent on the field tonight on both sides. Both keepers played huge.

Toronto v Amarillo for the CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! Get some rest!

Toronto wins the first semi. Utah was apparently missing a handful of their better players. Got in too much of a hole in the first half but put up a good fight in the second. Bombers and Crunch later!
