"איך בריבו פנוי? לא למדתם כלום מהמשחק?"

תאי בריבו ממשיך לכבוש. הישראלי של פילדלפיה יוניון הגיע לשבעה שערים בגביע הליגות, טורניר הקיץ המסורתי של צפון אמריקה, כשהפך עם צמד מול קולורדו ראפידס במשחק על המקום השלישי. האוהדים של שתי הקבוצות לא נשארו אדישים במשחק בו הישראלי הבקיע את הצמד השלישי שלו בטורניר, מה שלא הספיק כשקבוצתו הפסידה בפנדלים.

Y’all remember when Baribo wasn’t good enough to see the field? 😂 every goal is an indictment of Curtin’s talent assessment.

This Baribo guy is crazy I haven’t seen anything like this in my life. What is actually happening. Why were we hiding this man?

— John Quest (@johnquest56) August 25, 2024

Crazy to think Tai Baribo has been on the Union, but just not getting minutes. He’s been spectacular. At this scoring rate it feels like he won’t be with Philly for long though #doop #LeagusCup2024

Why is Baribo unmarked? One issue we’ve seen time and time again under Armas is marking on the back post…

Tai Baribo 7
Denis Bouanga 6
Diego Rossi 6

I'm told the trophy is not in the building

Tai Baribo has been activated. That semifinal against the Columbus Crew could have gone differently if Baribo had been available.

Denis Bouanga or Diego Rossi need to score in the final, or the 26-year-old striker will take home the Leagues Cup Golden Boot.#MLS #DOOP…

Halftime. 2-1.

Harris opens the scoring after Philly's the better team in the first 30 minutes. Two poacher goals from Tai Baribo give the Union the lead. Rapids have been second best. Deservedly down at halftime. #Rapids96

HT: Union 2, Colorado 1

Tai Baribo's brace was an instant response to Colorado's opener.

Well incase you missed it, since Colorado scored that opening goal the Union responded with two unanswered goals to close the half. Tai Baribo on a brace at halftime. #DOOP

Is Baribo the second coming of Christ? #DOOP
