LAFC vs Colorado Rapids: Date, Time, and TV channel in the US and Canada for Week 1 of 2022 MLS regular season

LAFC vs Colorado Rapids: Date, Time, and TV channel in the US and Canada for Week 1 of 2022 MLS regular season - Bolavip US

The World-Class talent of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/carlos-vela-hopeful-to-stay-in-lafc-and-mls-20211108-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carlos Vela</a> must be fully enjoyed by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-rumors-seba-blanco-leaving-portland-taty-castellanos-to-france-and-steve-cherundolo-set-to-take-over-lafc-here-is-the-low-down-20220103-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles FC</a> fans cause they may be on the verge of losing their ace, given that some reports point out that the Mexican footballer is aiming to continue his soccer journey in two spots far away from his current <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-schedule-format-fixtures-key-dates-and-tv-channel-20220223-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a> team.
Vela became Los Angeles’ first-ever signing ahead of its inclusion to the American soccer as an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/james-rodriguez-suggests-he-would-leave-qatar-for-europe-return-or-mls-move-20220222-0026.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a> expansion team in 2018. He arrived in the United States as one of his team’s Designated players and immediately took place at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neymars-mls-aspirations-draw-harsh-response-from-commissioner-don-garber-20220223-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the top of the highest-paid players of the league</a> with his $6.3 million annually earned.
So far, Carlos Vela has had a more than decent performance with Los Angeles FC. He took his team to compete in three <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-cup-winners-list-by-year-20211210-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS Cup</a> Play-off rounds in a row (2018, 2019, and 2020) with his 90 appearances, 59 goals scored, and 38 assists provided. In his second season at the MLS, the Mexican forward overcame Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Josef Martinez to win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2021-The-top-5-mvp-candidates-so-far--20210830-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Landon Donovan MVP award</a>.
<h2>Carlos Vela’s desire to leave Los Angeles FC to move to the following teams</h2>
According to TUDN’s journalist Michele Giannone, the Cancun native is searching to achieve his best season to then say goodbye to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/john-thorrington-there-is-no-star-that-has-shined-brighter-than-carlos-vela-20210503-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles FC</a> by not renewing his contract, which expires at the end of this season. Carlos may have already in mind his favorite destinations to continue his so far brilliant soccer career.
Vela’s first option as reported by Giannone on the MLS Today Showat Twitter Spaces is to come back to European soccer, where he competed for 12 seasons. The Mexican striker <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/top-mexican-players-to-play-in-europe-20220107-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">touched his peak at Spanish Real Sociedad</a> where he became the club star, finalizing just behind <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-statistically-better-than-lionel-messi-this-season-despite-both-playing-some-of-their-least-best-soccer-this-year-20220223-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi </a>in LaLiga’s awards for the 2013-2014 season.

(Michael Regan/Getty Images) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Another reason for Vela to desire a return to Europe is his wife’s nationality:Saioa Cañibano is a former Spanish sports journalist who was conquered by Carlos during his stance at San Sebastian. Fair is to add that even though it was not leaked the team that thecurrent Los Angeles striker might be moving to, he had offers to come back to Spain in the last years, specifically from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-heres-why-aubameyang-celebrates-his-goals-like-real-madrid-legend-hugo-sanchez-20220222-0029.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FC Barcelona</a> and Real Betis.
<h2>Vela’s second option to move if his European dream is not possible</h2>
Also leaked by Michele Giannone, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lafc-star-carlos-vela-tired-of-losing-wants-his-team-to-bounce-back-in-mls-20210816-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carlos Vela</a> may already have a B plan if he fails in his alleged attempt to come back to Europe. This will be to remain at the MLS but not in the same team. Vela and his wife will be looking not to raise their children in Los Angeles but in Miami. So the Mexican ace target might be to join <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-report-david-beckhams-inter-miami-would-go-after-atletico-madrids-luiz-suarez-20220118-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Beckham’s Inter Miami</a>.

MLS: Carlos Vela's preferred teams to move as he could be facing his last season in Los Angeles FC

MLS: Carlos Vela's preferred teams to move as he could be facing his last season in Los Angeles FC - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neymar-most-fouled-player-in-europe-according-to-report-20220223-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Neymar</a> has recently made big headlines when he <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neymar-wants-to-play-in-mls-and-become-a-gamer-after-his-playing-days-are-over-20220221-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hinted at a possible MLS move</a> in the future. The Brazilian is certainlycomfortable at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/teams-who-have-never-won-champions-league-20201203-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PSG</a> but he left the door open to a move abroad in the final years of his career.
“I’d love to play in the US actually. I’d love to play there at least for a season. First of all, their season is shorter, so I’d get three months’ vacation,” Neymar told Brazilian streamer Gaules on Twitch.
Even though many would be thrilled with the idea of seeing the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neymar-admits-he-wanted-to-leave-psg-to-rejoin-lionel-messi-at-barcelona-20220126-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a> star in the US, his comment didn’t sit well with everyone. Especially with commissioner Don Garber, who has made clear MLS is not a ‘retirement’ league.
<h2>MLS commissioner Don Garber gives a harsh response to Neymar’s comments</h2>
“We want our story to be about young players who are coming here at the earliest stages in their career or in their prime of their careers, and making our league their league of choice,” Garber said in a press conference, as quoted by Sports Illustrated. “And you’ve seen a dramatic shift from where we were to where we are today.
“When we look at bringing players at 30 and younger than that, I’m proud of that. As it relates to when they get older, if that makes sense, that’s great. If they’re not here to come and play and be a great contributor to their club and to our league and to respect the league and its fans, then we don’t want them in Major League Soccer. So we don’t need to bring in a big-name player at the end of their career because they’ve decided they’d like to retire in MLS.”

</div>

<h2>Garber on the changein MLS over the years</h2>
The league has made a significant switch over the last few years, attracting <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-preview-11-players-to-keep-an-eye-on-this-season-20220215-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">young players</a> with a lot of potential instead of setting their sights on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-and-the-greatest-legends-in-mls-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">veteran stars</a>. However, Garber recognizes the rolethat the likes of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-17-greatest-new-york-red-bulls-in-history-20210217-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thierry Henry</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/top-15-greatest-los-angeles-galaxy-players-of-all-time-20201216-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Beckham</a> have played and is glad to have <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-douglas-costa-and-the-most-promising-players-with-european-experienced-signed-in-the-transfer-window-20220212-0025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xherdan Shaqiri</a> for this season.
“I can’t imagine what [MLS] would be without players like that,” Garber said. “But you’ll also think about Josef Martínez and you think about [former Atlanta playmaker Miguel Almirón] and you think about some of the players that have come in recently, they’re what is what making [MLS] the league it is today.
“When Zlatan [Ibrahimović] left [the Galaxy] nobody said that he went to go retire in Italy. And frankly I was insulted by that,” Garber said about Zlatan’s return to AC Milan after his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-and-the-greatest-legends-in-mls-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stint with the Galaxy</a>. “Because if Zlatan came to us at the same age he went back to Milan, it would’ve been a ‘retirement move’ on his part. And he worked his tail off in MLS and he’s working his tail off in Serie A. So I’m not quite sure why we’re viewed differently. But that is what it is.”

When the Mexican striker had been signed by the LAhe said he was coming to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/james-rodriguez-suggests-he-would-leave-qatar-for-europe-return-or-mls-move-20220222-0026.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a> not to retire but to fight for titles, a feat that he and his team have not accomplished yet. Nevertheless, in his mind, the idea of returning to his country may be present as he has set his exit price very low if Chivas or any otherLiga MXteam wants him.
So far, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/top-mexican-players-to-play-in-europe-20220107-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward</a> performance at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-who-is-jairo-torres-chicago-fire-new-signing-in-the-2022-transfer-window-20220216-0045.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a> has been regular but not brilliant. Due to the constant injuries he has suffered, Chicharito has just been able to play 33 games with LA Galaxy in two seasons (just 12 on his first), with 19 goals scored and 3 assists given. However, it is fair to say that nobody has scored more goals in LA Galaxy since Hernandez is there.
Chicharito‘s and LA Galaxy debt with their fans is still there and increases every season: since <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-preview-predictions-takes-and-awards-for-the-new-season-20220221-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a>‘ 2020 season, the first one in which <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-top-goalscorers-all-time-20201101-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Mexican star</a> participated, the team has not been able to qualify to the Play-offs round, despite the fact that its roster is the second most expensive of the whole American League (behind his city rivals, Los Angeles FC).
<h2>The price to pay to take Chicharito away from LA Galaxy</h2>
Javier Hernandez, one of<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-preview-winners-and-losers-so-far-in-the-transfer-market-20220207-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LA ‘s Designated players</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2021-salaries-who-are-the-leagues-highest-paid-players-20210608-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the second-highest-paidplayer of the league</a>, is one of the most active soccer players on the Twitch platform. He loves to broadcast his achievements as a videogame player and interact with his fans all across the world. In one of these exchanges, he was questioned about the possibility to come back to Chivas, his first and only team in Liga MX. His answer astonished everyone.
Chicharito gave the exact amount Chivasor any other club in Mexico would have to pay to make him leave the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/neymar-wants-to-play-in-mls-and-become-a-gamer-after-his-playing-days-are-over-20220221-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a>. The quantity is 5 million: not Mexican pesos, dollars, or even euros, but bits. The latter ones are, according to Twitch, “a virtual good you can buythat give you the power to encourage and show support for streamers, get attention in chat through animated emoticons, vote in Polls, get recognition through badges, leaderboards, and acknowledgment from the streamer“.

</div>
<h2>How much is 5 million of Twitch bits?</h2>
It may have been a joke or justa comment made in a moment of high emotions, but, according to Bits to dollars, a digital converter of Twitch’s money to American currency, the cost of taking Chicharito away from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-richard-sanchez-and-all-of-the-zero-cost-players-that-la-galaxy-has-signed-so-far-in-the-transfer-window-20220118-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LA Galaxy</a> is only 50,000 dollars, as one Twitch bit is $0.01.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/james-rodriguez-performs-life-saving-treatment-on-opposing-defender-who-went-into-cardiac-arrest-20220113-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Rodriguez</a> made a shocking move to Qatar this season after a feud with Rafael Benitez, who was in charge of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-everton-goalkeeper-jordan-pickford-in-bar-room-brawl-after-fans-make-fun-of-his-arms--20220215-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everton</a> by then. Despite it looked like a risky move for the Colombian, he started to get back to his best with Al-Rayyan.
James has three goals and four assists in nine league appearances with the Qatar Stars League outfit this season. He might be a bit far from the spotlight but, at 30,it seems that the playmakeris starting to get his career back on track.
However, the former Real Madrid star has recently suggested he would be open to leaving Qatar in the near future. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/report-james-rodriguez-centerpiece-of-bayern-munich-parting-back-in-2018-which-led-to-manager-sacking-20211117-0025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James</a> is under contract until 2024 but said he would like to play in Europe again orjoin the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-preview-predictions-takes-and-awards-for-the-new-season-20220221-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a>.
<h2>James Rodriguez reveals he would leave Al-Rayyan to return to Europe or join the MLS</h2>
“The team has not been able to get results in the league, but we’re doing well in the Cup, the idea is to win it,” James Rodriguez said on Twitch, as quoted by Diario Olé in Spanish. “At least I’m playing. I’m doing well.
“I’ve already played many games, I’m happy about that because it’s been a long time since I’ve played so many games in a row. I’m scoring goals, providing assists, and that’s why I came here, to be able to play and get into a rhythm, and to see what happens next as well.”
James did say he’s happy for his playing time in Qatar but that doesn’t mean he won’t consider a move away. “I don’t know, you never know what will happen,” he said when asked how long he would play in Qatar. “Although I would like to go somewhere else.
“Phyisically I’m perfect, I’m healthy. They ask me if I would return to Europe, why not? I have the conditions for that, I’m getting into a rhythm. A good option would be the United States,” James added.

MLS continues to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-top-10-most-expensive-incoming-transfers-20210211-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spend big on incoming</a> transfers of young and in their prime players, as well as becoming a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-the-top-outgoing-transfers-to-date-20200903-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">selling league</a> by moving talent across the pond.
Charlotte FC are the new kids on the block, NYCFC are the defending champions and Toronto FC are hoping to survive the first half of the season until Lorenzo Insigne arrives in July. By November it will be MLS Cup time and this season we have a feeling a new club will be crowned MLS Cup champions.
Here are our season predictions for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-preview-5-teams-with-5-burning-questions-20220209-0031.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022 MLS Season</a>.

<h2>Predictions for 2022 MLS season</h2>

<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220221_BUS_184918_facundo_torres_crop1645468955195.jpg_22069893_ad5d9c08.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption> Facundo Torres (Orlando City) </figcaption></figure>

MLS Cup winners: Orlando City: Yes, mark it down, Orlando City have a squad that can surprise many, with a team that has improved tenfold since Óscar Pareja arrived. Don’t look for the Lions to finish first or even second but come playoff time they have players that can be clutch. Orlando City might just steal it.
Supporters Shield: Seattle Sounders, not known for fast starts the Sounders this season will field a team that will have João Paulo, Albert Rusnák, Jordan Morris, and Nicolás Lodeiro alternating in the midfield with Raúl Ruidíaz up front. Look for the Sounders to dominate this season and be the best team in the regular season.
US Open Cup: The US Open cup was canceled for the last two seasons but it’s always a tournament where the end result is an MLS champion. In this case the New England Revolution is a team too good to not win any silverware this season.
Concacaf Champions League: Will an MLS team win it? No. As MLS continues to shrink the playing field between Liga MX and MLS, the question has turned to, is CCL final defeats more due to MLS inferiority complex against Liga MX or is it about talent on the field?
MVP: Albert Rusnák, look for Albert Rusnák to be unleashed this season with a much higher level of support look for career numbers.
Golden Boot: Josef Martínez: back with a vengeance this season. Look for something in the 20-goal range.

Coach of the year: Nico Estévez: The turnaround of FC Dallas will be jaw dropping.
Comeback player of the year: Brian Rodríguez, with his head firmly in Los Angeles and a chance at being at the World Cup for Uruguay, if they qualify, fading look for LAFC to finally see the best from Brian Rodríguez.
Newcomer of the year: Thiago Almada the league’s most expensive signing ever will cut loose, mainly because unlike Pity or Barco, he doesn’t have to be the man at Atlanta United. Almada has a much higher soccer IQ than Barco and will be eye candy in MLS.
First coach to be fired: Josh Wolff, Austin FC still does not look convincing and with a strong fan base, it will be doubtful ownership will handle another slow start. The team looked very poor during most of last season.
Wooden Spoon: San Jose Earthquakes: The end of the Matías Almeyda era will give us another miserable season for the Quakes. A team set up to barely make it to the playoffs look for things to stay poor.
Defender of the year: Walker Zimmerman, look for the USMNT stand out to get to the World Cup in fine form.
Goalkeeper of the year: Pedro Gallese, only because Gabriel Slonina will be gone by the summer.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/25-highest-paid-athletes-cost-per-post-on-instagram-20220218-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Neymar</a> knows how to market himself, unlike even Lionel Messi, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/brazilian-police-arrest-neymar-hacker-after-stealing-money-from-the-psg-stars-bank-account-20220210-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Neymar</a> has always been ready to take a stab at doing something different. Not afraid to try something new the Brazilian star has already made appearances on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/better-call-saul-tease-season-6-but-we-still-cant-forget-the-squat-cobbler-20220209-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American television</a> and movies, most notably his sketch on Jimmy Kimmel and his cameo in XXX: Return of Xander Cage.
Neymar also tried his hand in acting playing someone other than himself in the Netflix series Money Heist playing a monk. Now <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/meet-neymar-rumored-new-girlfriend-bruna-biancardi-20220117-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Neymar</a> is looking ahead when his days of playing soccer are close to ending and what he’d like to do post playing career.
The PSG star has set his sights of getting into the world of e-gaming and before that playing in Major League Soccer. Here is what <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-neymar-hosts-secret-3-day-new-years-party-in-underground-bunker-of-brazil-mansion-20220103-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Neymar </a>had to say about what may come next.

“I don’t know if I’ll play in Brazil again, as I have some doubts about that,” Neymar said on the Fenomenos podcast. He added, “I’d love to play in the US actually. I’d love to play there at least for a season. First of all, their season is shorter, so I’d get three months’ vacation,” Neymar joked.
When asked what he’d like to do outside of soccer the now 30-year-old Brazilian stated, “I’d like to work with something other than Soccer. I don’t know, if I’m not playing Soccer there’s nothing else I can do that’s Soccer-related… I may work with video games. I may be a gamer. We’ll see. I could produce something. I like the production aspect. It interests me. But I don’t know, all I know is that it won’t be soccer. Nothing has caught my eye. I have time to think and now I’m just thinking about all the possibilities. We’ll see, I have some time and we can wait. When I’m at the end of my career I’ll see what I can do.”
Neymar has a contract with PSG until 2025, with the 2022 World Cup looming Neymar knows time is winding down, “I’m always joking with my friends. I tell them I’ll retire when I’m 32 but it’s just a joke. I’ll play until I’m mentally tired. If my mental health is OK and my body as well, physically I’ll think I’ll still last a few years, but my mental health is the most important thing. It has to be good always. My contract with Paris Saint-Germain will last until I’m 34 so I’ll be playing till then.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/betting/how-to-bet-on-concacaf-champions-league-helpful-guide-20210405-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CONCACAF Champions League</a> is one of the big tournaments for the countries of Central and North America, including Caribbean nations. It is a competition that has been dominated by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/liga-mx-in-2022-how-to-watch-or-live-stream-free-mexican-league-games-in-2022-20220104-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liga MX</a> teams since the beginning. But MLS teams have been taking a bigger role in recent years, plus a couple of Major League Soccer teams have already won CONCACAF Champions League titles.
Major League Soccer teams are offering a higher level of play within the tournament and the big favorites, Mexican teams, have witnessed thatin the last three editions (2019, 2020, 2021) of the CONCACAF Champions League where the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2022-preview-winners-and-losers-so-far-in-the-transfer-market-20220207-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS </a>teams played in the semifinals and in the 2021 season, a Mexican team played and won the final against an MLS team.
Without a doubt the MLS teams in the confederation’s most important club competition are the second best, but other smaller teams from Central America and Caribbean countries are having good results every new season.
<h2>Which MLS teams have won the CONCACAF Champions League?</h2>
D.C. United was the first <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/mls-2021-salaries-who-are-the-leagues-highest-paid-players-20210608-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS team</a> to win the CONCACAF Champions League in 1998, but at the time the tournament had another name: the ‘Champions’ Cup’. The second team to win the competition under the old name was the Los Angeles Galaxy in 2000.
<h2>Which MLS teams have played in the CONCACAF Champions League final?</h2>
Aside from the two teams mentioned above, two other MLS teams that came close to winning a CONCACAF Champions League were Real Salt Lake in 2011 but lost in the final against Monterrey; and the second MLS team to lose in a final of the competition were the Los Angeles FC, they lost against the Mexican side <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/liga-mx-in-2022-how-to-watch-or-live-stream-free-mexican-league-games-in-2022-20220104-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tigres UANL</a>.
<h2>The 2019 CONCACAF Champions League season was magical for the MLS teams</h2>
With the new format, MLS teams have more opportunity to win games and go further in the tournament, but a couple of seasons ago, in the 2019 CONCACAF Champions League season, the quarter-finals were full of MLS teams, in total four Major League Soccer teams against three<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/liga-mx-in-2022-how-to-watch-or-live-stream-free-mexican-league-games-in-2022-20220104-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Liga MX</a> teams and one team from Panama.
But unfortunately only one of the MLS teams in 2019, Sporting Kansas City, was able to advance to the next round, the semifinals, and they lost to Monterrey 10-2 in two legs.
