Video Tuesday
No Short Corners —
A little lunchtime viewing for you all... Let's begin with ESPN's MLS playoff first leg wrap, just in case you missed some of it. Yesterday we saw the MLS Goal of the Year nominees, and now it's time to run down the Save of the Year candidates. As always, we look back at MOTD2's 2 Good 2 Bad . We got back to ESPN to talk Champions League for two glamour teams in a pickle: Liverpool and Real Madrid. Finally, Portugal ace Cristiano Ronaldo just can't even bear the thought of missing out on World Cup. - Greg Seltzer

Goal and Save of the Year
Down the Byline —
Year end award nominees are coming out, and while no Wizards players are up the big awards, 3 Wizards are nominated for 2 awards. Davy Arnaud and Claudio Lopez are both up twice for goal of the year. Arnaud's first blast against Toronto on the opening week of the season is one of his two nominated goals. His other is his give and go play with Lopez in the team's 3-1 win over New England in June. Lopez's first goal is his free kick in KC's 1-1 draw with Chivas USA. The other goal is his midfield shot in KC's 1-1 draw with LA in KC. Arnaud's first goal is my favorite of those 4, but not my favorite overall, that's likely Clint Mathis' volley. Check out all the ...

Readers of this blog didn't agree, but Chivas USA's Zach Thornton was named MLS Goalkeeper of the Year today, 11 years after first taking the honor with the Chicago Fire.
That time span between awards was undoubtedly one of the reasons the 36-year-old took the honor, beating out the Galaxy's Donovan Ricketts and Seattle Sounders veteran Kasey Keller (both in their first MLS seasons). Thornton equals the feats of Joe Cannon and Pat Onstad in becoming one of only three MLS goalkeepers to win the award twice.
"Whenever you're mentioned in that class of goalkeeper, with [Joe and Pat], ...
