Yes. We're playing a much better team.

Great sequence by Brooks.  Botches clear opportunity in box then picks up a yellow.

Yellow was a good foul but yeah he has to be better in the box.

That just isn't true. Pulisic has had plenty of touches in the final third. 

[Firemans4Horn 17827]

Man Davies is terrifying in space. 
 

glad Pulisic replace Lletget on corners (and hopefully free kicks). That was a great corner by him. 

[ztejas 43262]

Someone needs to be at that back post. Fuck. 

[shnsajax 3589]

I like the Robinson’s. Miles needs to get to Europe ASAP.

[Firemans4Horn 17827]

Plz man, that's a foul 3 feet in front of your face.

 

Ok, guess he's going 1991 NBA playoffs officiating. Which I'm cool with as long as it is both ways.

[shadow_operative 15932]

damn it!! i thought that was going to end in a goal for sure. 

[Bodhi 1111]

Furk.  Nice play by Letget to set that up.

yeh he better not call a single ticky tack foul tonight. 

[Firemans4Horn 17827]

damn, a few more inches by Puli and that's a goal.

[TexArcher 37508]

So close, but the build-up's encouraging.

A play.

[ztejas 43262]

God dammit. Dest had been so good. 

[Zepol87 9171]

He is hurt

He had a nice one timer earlier. Got a corner out of it.

in the forward half of the field. Looked like Dejan Lovren against Davies.

[Firemans4Horn 17827]

that was your chance lletget

[shadow_operative 15932]

shades of Benny Fielhaber there. MAN if that had gone in...

[Trey3216 15325]

Lletget just missed that one.  Not sure why Pefok didn’t try a redirect.

Yeah. Any head on that creates a dangerous ball. 

[Knoxtnhorn 5929]

And Lletget misses the ocean.

[Kringelbert Fishtybuns 943]

Tell Deandre he can’t get 10’ off the sideline unless he is within 6’ of the touch.

[Knoxtnhorn 5929]

2 legit chances on goal in 150 mins of qualification thus far.  Well effing done bitchalder.

[Knoxtnhorn 5929]

Pisses me off.  I only truly care about 5 teams.

TX football - coach is good.

TX basketball - coach is good

TX baseball - coach is good

Cowboys - no

US Soccer - no

First game was an abortion but I've seen some good stuff in this first half. Canada's back 4 has played really well and are hard to break down. 

Pulisic is so quality. We really missed him in that first one. Just need to string some more play together in the 2nd half. 

[Firemans4Horn 17827]

FREE PEPI!

I truly respect your opinion, but our only legit chance, at home, has been a near own-goal.  Translate this performance to, say, Belgium or France or Brazil, etc..  of course I'm not saying we're anywhere near as good as these teams but, I shudder to think about 1.5 chances a game v El Salvador and Canada v anyone else in the Top 20 of the world.

I'm with you. I'm as critical as anyone on here. I do think we were the better side in that first half. Just need to capitalize.

You are doubling down on a dumb take. The team had several chances against ES but had the yips and shanked every one of them. Tonight, our best chance was Pulisic drawing wood.

The team hasn't impressed, so general criticism is certainly understandable, if not warranted. But you're trying to use a statistical argument with bunk numbers.

You think 0 goals in a little over 1.5 games against El Salvador and Canada (at home) is fine?  It's not like we're Mexico v T&T (?) Where they had like 25 chances on goal ,but couldn't finish.  We're not even challenging.

[RamjetFDO 10554]

While you guys are arguing opinions and semi-worthless stats, we just about gave away the first goal on a cross that skated across the 6.

[ztejas 43262]

This ref is completely lost.

You said the USMNT had only generated "2 legit" chances in 150 minutes. Now you're trying to move the goalposts, presumably cuz you realize how absurd your statement was but you can't own it.

You also wrote that our best chance tonight came from a defender, when Puli had a shot carom off the woodwork.

[WBT 20415]

Finally!
