  1. Damn that was a nice finish, but sucks that it was offsides. It was close.
  2. Uh, didn't their guy trip our defender on that goal?
  3. Henry looks sad with each French goal, he knows that's going to cost him the US job.
  4. Also GD these guys for making me eat my words on marking well. Both of those goals we wide open.
  5. I can't see it. This guy has given up 2 easy ones. WTF?!?!?!
  6. DAMN 2 great chances that just didn't go in.
  7. Jesus from out of nowhere and out of nothing.
  8. Damn, that would have been nice. Absolute right decision to shoot, wish it went in instead of off the bar.
  9. If he wasn't a U23 player I agree, but the U23 part - I'm willing to give him a pass on it given he had to still play the two attackers in the middle. The French attack is good, I think our defense is up to the task. They are marking really well and holding their lines (and then let a guy get in past them). We need to stay on the attack, keep them honest and not let them get comfortable on our end of the field. I would really like us to get the opening goal too.
  10. That shot ended up going wide, but what was Schulte doing? He drifted right and opened up the left side wide open. If that was inside the post, I don't think it's saved.
  11. Nice buildup and shot. It was saved, but it shows that we are here to play. Come on Busio!!! Gotta stay on your feet!
  12. A little bit of an equalizer for the US, the French aren't the perfect dangerous force we saw in the World Cup and Euros. Though also can be a detriment as we just saw on giving up that corner.
  13. Play by Play: Joe Speight Color: Tim Howard
  14. "Please let us have this one"? We're going to take this from them and then take their girlfriends after the game.
  15. Jokes aside I think we should have a US Soccer game thread for all the matches.

    Only if they bring back the former Technical Advisor.
  17. 2,1 But let's not be too hasty. Its only day -2 of the Olympics and they are in France.
  18. LOL - this is so busted, I was able to get to the FIFA page on the match showing both the Morocco win and the draw.
  19. Not broken but a minor nitpick, when you are doing multi-quote and you decide that you want to NOT quote the posts, the X to quote them is behind the TOP OF PAGE button. On a computer with a clear pointer tip of the mouse all isn't too bad, but on a phone this appears a little below and sometimes you can hit the TOP OF PAGE instead of the X and it's a pain. This is in Chrome on Window (the screen shot), Chrome Mac acts the same and iPhone Chrome as well:
  20. This guy wrote a great book on it. The Olympic tournament is perfect for it: https://www.amazon.com/Fix-Soccer-Organized-Crime/dp/077104139X
  21. And to be fair - that Argentina lost, I'm cool with because they didn't deserve the draw given this ridiculous ammount of extra time.
  22. What was this call? Just watching the replay twice I don't see any option for offsides.
  23. Ok, I gotta ask WTF actually happened here? Because I see this game as being a 2-1 win for Morocco and I heard that the players were called back out from the locker rooms to finish the game.
