Portugal match is huge for Germany. They could lose and crash out in the group stage which would arguably represent their nadir.

England is going to regret not hiring a competent manager. What is the point of playing Phillips and Rice against freaking Scotland? Rice is more than enough at DM with Mount and Grealish in front of him. Sancho needs to replace Foden immediately. Dude has done nothing since hitting the post against Croatia. Trippier and Chilwell should be starting at RB and LB, respectively. Rashford, who is hurt, is a LW and should only play LW particularly when Shaw is playing LB. A big part of Kane's problem is not enough creativity in MF, too much selfishness on the wings and poor service from the FBs.

I really enjoy when a national team completes a generational turnover. Italy it seems has done that.
Bonucci and Chiellini are the only dudes on the roster with more than 50 caps

Some awful defending from Turkey and Switzerland today.
Reminds me of youth club soccer tournament games between teams that shouldn't be in the same bracket.

Bale could have a second act to his career as a deep lying playmaker. His passing has been insane

It would definitely be "on brand" for the USSF to ignore/destroy one of the USMNT's only traditions. The closure of Crew Stadium and the loss in 2018 qualifying provides excuses.
What is another USMNT tradition (other than not qualifying for the Olympics and hiring overmatched American coaches who inexplicably start a slow veteran fullback in important games)?

Agree that Austin makes some sense for a qualifier. USSF wants to reward cities for investing in MLS and building soccer specific stadiums. That said, Canada is the one game that the US will have a home field advantage for regardless of the location so they may want to play it elsewhere and save Austin for a different opponent (Panama makes a lot of sense).
Hopefully, the USSF puts Mexico in the new Columbus stadium.

USMNT 2021
in Futbol
To be fair to Lalas, almost all of the Mexican fans at the game live in the United States and some are Americans. It's almost impossible to overstate the insecurity of the average Mexican soccer fan regarding this second stage evolution of U.S. soccer. They did not anticipate the avalanche of young U.S. players moving to the Big 5 leagues and are beginning to realize that the depth of legitimate international American talent is real and only going to increase while the Mexicans will remain the same Mexico they have been since the 80s.
Mexican fans are generally tolerable when they are winning but they are cornered rats when losing, particularly when losing to their hated American rivals. Anyone who has watched the U.S. win a game against Mexico outside of Columbus and SLC has experienced the sad descent of the Mexican fans to paranoia, self-loathing and violence when the U.S. closes in on victory. They are losing in real time the one thing they care about the most and the one thing they have had over the gringos. The aggy analogies are disturbingly apt. The mindset of aggy toward Texas is almost indistinguishable from the mindset of the Mexican team and fanbase towards the USMNT. The violent and disruptive behavior of the Mexican players and fanbase will only continue to deteriorate in the coming years as the Americans win game after game against them. The gamesmanship (aka cheating) of the Mexican team is going to reach unprecedented and pathetic levels over the next decade as their futile resistance to American domination of the rivalry collapses.
Mexico may not beat the US for 10 years outside of Azteca if the US fed hires a real coach. It's all over for the Mexicans and they know it.

1. Berhalter should be fired immediately after the game. Completely exposed with his formation and defensive selections.
2. McKenzie had one of the worst 1Hs I have ever seen. He has a looooong way to go at this level.
3. Sargent is not good enough. Late runs and weak on the dribble. We aren't doing shit with him as our 9.
4. Mexico isn't going to let Puli beat them.
5. Steffen needs to leave Man City this summer. He needs games badly

All of the quality is extremely young and inexperienced, particularly in playing against the cheating Mexican/central American style. Half of the Honduran team would have picked up two yellows if the game was officiated by Euro officials. It's very difficult to adjust to a style of play that is not permitted where you play.
It's like going from the NBA to a game on the yard at San Quentin. The US federation needs to stop being such pussies and start threatening to suspend all CONCACAF competitions in the US unless significant improvements are made to officiating.

No Haaland.

Portugal's front four of Jota, Ronaldo, Bernardo Silva and Bruno is ridiculous by the way. Germany will have their hands full
