March 31, 20223 yr Just now, Ted Lange said: Definitely. Not an "I told you so" btw. I was curious myself as to what they would do. My thinking was just that, bunch of young guys, result doesn't matter, well run program, I'd just let em play and see what happens. It's of course very CONCACAFy to go with the "fuck you US you aren't winning" strategy but I sort of figured CR is a little better than that. And my holy fuck quit shooting from outside the box Acosta. You aren't on this team to do your best Kevin De Bruyne impression.

I still watch those reaction videos from time to time. Americans got focused on football and there's no turning back. Couva was a blip that needed to happen to get our shit strait (the hiring of GERGG aside) That Brooks goal was fucking magic. Buddies sitting with me at the bar that never watch soccer going absolutely bonkers. Was something to behold.
March 31, 20223 yr I hope that the "iS tHe Us beTTeR WitHouT MCkEnniE?" dickhead is watching this game. Reyna would also be helping a lot right now. I'd like to see him on at half. Edited March 31, 20223 yr by ztejas

It makes sense to not play deep, but they just aren’t drilled in doing that. And the results are the same. 35% possession and the US has 5 shots on goal to 1

March 31, 20223 yr Author I missed the first 30 minutes, because I thought that the game started at 8:30pm. That ref definitely says “SORE-y” and “washroom” several times a day, eh?.

March 31, 20223 yr 1 minute ago, ztejas said: Go answer. Not impressed with Steffen there. Nope, slow and late as fuck on that.
March 31, 20223 yr Yeah Walker couldn't head the ball in the air. But what was Antonee doing there? Marking nobody.
March 31, 20223 yr Zimmerman is good in the air. Looked like Erick Dampier on that one though. Steffen looked like Han Solo in Carbonite.

March 31, 20223 yr Too many forced shots tonight. Move the ball. They're outclassed on paper - prove why.

Berhalter should have started Horvath this game. No excuse not to give him burn. What does Horvath have to do to get time when the other goalkeepers are less than 100%? Terrible.
March 31, 20223 yr Eh. Maybe not fair, but Steffen is no Navas. Edited March 31, 20223 yr by Braff Zacklin
