Possible silver lining. Does stuck in group play mean that Reyna, Pepi, Musah and Scally play in Olympics? Balogun is age eligible too, but playing for u21s for England may disqualify him. 

Zimmerman and Robinson will be overage center backs with one more overage player available.

    I'll take the guy who just made the Serie A team of the season and who has the best goals to caps ratio in USMNT history despite playing on the wing for the worst manager in USMNT history.

Uruguay could still mathematically be eliminated. The US would have to win like 3-0 and have Panama beat Bolivia 5-0 or so, but it isn't a done deal by the numbers. Unrealistic, absolutely.

 

I wouldn't want Uruguay to rest starters anyway. This team needs to play good teams, not back their way into the knockouts to get some false sense of accomplishment. 

Either they're going to win tonight and this whole deal will have been a valuable learning experience or we're going to get smoked at Berhalter is going to get canned. Win-win to me. 

US has to win 4-0 to pass up Uruguay in the table.  3-0 and both would be at +4 but the next tiebreaker is goals scored and they'd be ahead there even with a 3-0 scoreline.    Panama need would need 6 to pass Uruguay because they'd lose out on head to head.

Damn it!!

😂

Et tu Apple!

 

(or maybe it was my fault, but was in a rush to make a joke… 😏)

That MF is going to get smoked. I feel like we have to play Musah and move Reyna to a wing. Win on a counter. Play more like we did vs Brazil. Trying to take the fight right to Uruguay sounds like a disaster. 

Best place to watch tonight's game in North Austin? I'll be with my wife and teenage son. I was thinking Hopsquad, but I'm open to suggestions.

Is there a place that serves $2 tequila shots?  I'd start there about 2 hours before kick and let the memories fade into the ether.

Mr Tramps used to be my go to place, but man that was over a decade ago, so no clue.

The U.S. will advance if it does better against Uruguay than Panama does against Bolívia. This can manifest itself in a few ways.

• The U.S. wins while Panama ties or loses.
• The U.S. wins or ties while Panama loses.

If the U.S. and Panama get the same result in their respective matches, then it will come down to goal differential. Currently the USMNT has a two-goal edge, plus-1 to minus-1.

• If the U.S. and Panama tie, the U.S. would go through based on the better goal differential.
• If the U.S and Panama both win, then there will be three teams on six points, and goal differential will factor in. The U.S. will need to make sure its margin of victory is enough that Panama doesn't make up the difference.
• The only way the U.S. catches Uruguay is if it beats La Celeste by four goals. Anything less than that and Uruguay would be above the Americans on the goal differential tiebreaker.
• Panama's margin of victory would need to be two goals better than the USMNT's. If the two sides find themselves even on goal differential, the next tiebreaker is goals scored, followed by head-to-head involving the three teams.
• If the U.S and Panama both lose, the U.S. will need to avoid losing by three more goals than Panama. If Panama makes up the two-goal differential, then the two teams could find themselves even on goal differential. Bolívia would also factor into the equation because three teams would be on three points.

If two or more teams are tied on points, goal differential and goals scored, then the tiebreaker will be determined as follows:

• Greater number of points obtained in the group-stage matches among the teams in question.
• Greater goal difference in group-stage matches among the teams in question.
• Greater number of goals scored in the group-stage matches among the teams in question.

If the teams are still tied, the tiebreaker will go to:

• Fewer red cards.
• Fewer yellow cards.
• By the drawing of lots.

Nobody is catching Uruguay.   So IF the US wins (Panama for sure is winning) it will come down to GD, then goals scored.  IF we are tied after that Panama goes thru.

We got a lineup yet?

shit. The game starts an hour later than I thought!!

Edited by Captain Ron

Bolivia has a GD of -7.

I don’t think that they’ve won a Copa America match in over a decade. 

I think that they have score one goal in that time, but not positive. 
 

Here I go down Bolivia’s Copa America rabbit hole. See you guys in a bit. 

2024: 0 Wins & 2 Losses

3 - 2 vs Ecuador 🇪🇨 

0 - 0 vs Mexico 🇲🇽 

0 - 5 vs Chile 🇨🇱 

 

Then Bolivia lost to Peru 🇵🇪 1 - 3 in the quarterfinals.

SUMMARY:

Bolivia 🇧🇴 has LOST 11 Group Stage matches in a row and 12 Copa America matches of any kind in a row…

But maybe Panama being without tons of first team players will be enough to get Bolivia a result. 

i keep telling myself that when we are not in europe we always get out of group

on euro soil we've never advanced

everywhere else we've always advanced

I made an error due to not looking at when Bolivia’s loss to Chile in the Group Stage was.  

Their loss to Chile was the last match of the Group Stage, so it adds to the streak. (They may have been resting starters.)

CORRECT SUMMARY:

Bolivia 🇧🇴 has LOST 12 Group Stage matches in a row and 13 Copa America matches of any kind in a row.

For everyone pulling for the USMNT tonight in hopes of saving Berhalter’s job…

 

I know the US coach is awful but isn't his brother giving him his paychecks? Why would he be fired even though he clearly sucks if his brother calls the shots.

Not sure Hopsquad open on Mondays?

Watch Haji come off the bench and save Gregg’s ass tonight.

The announcers seem to think we're going to win.  I was going to make a joke about how shitty soccer ends at the South American border, then I remembered that border is with Panama.  Eesh.

2-1 Yanks.  Goals from Balogun and Weston.

Hell with it.  Let's go.

So win 3-0.  Got it.

We're not really watching from this angle the whole match, are we?

What is this?

Lmao @ this angle

love watching tv from nosebleeds.

that dude said, “f scally”. love the way he hopped right back up after the foul.

Fox soccer coverage is like the first time I saw Goatse. Except in the month of June/July this year I willingly tune in for 4-6 hours a day.

sideline reporting in the middle of a match should be illegal. god damn i hate fox.
