Ref not a fan of the ol' whistle today I guess. 

[TexArcher 37770]

Not gonna argue for a penalty there, but I'm not sure how getting knocked down is a foul on the guy who got knocked down.

He skurred.

[TXSG8R 3362]

CP’s service is ass.  Also, why do Canadians hate CP so much?

[LurkingHorn 1066]

Can we get Pulisic off free kicks? He’s been absolute shit. 

[RamjetFDO 10575]

Canada has attended the Central America school of shitty little hack fouls... and "because CONCACRAP" they're not being called.

[TexArcher 37770]

We look not great, Bob.

[ztejas 43411]

I don't understand why he takes every set piece. I'd rather he be on the receiving end anyway.  I feel like Dest should be behind those.

We look okay. It's cold as shit and this ref is being a cunt. 

That was really impressive by Zardes. 

[ztejas 43411]

Lol at the color guy wondering why guys aren't in the box... I don't think any of them expected Zardes to pull that off. 

[Hagbard Celine 10852]

about fucking time

We really don't.  Our only chance in 30 minutes came from a bad clearance and it was easily blocked.  Our corner service is shit.  We've had two or three bad giveaways.  And we're down a goal.

Nah we look good. Dominating. Just can’t get any shots on target. 

[kingkoopa6 8347]

We gonna win 3-1 

[kingkoopa6 8347]

Lotta game left. 

[Knoxtnhorn 5971]

I will say that those who pointed out the field conditions in Columbus as being an issue were right.  Though we're losing, we actually look ok with the ball.

Yeah I kind of meant other than the goal we conceded. We're winning possession handily. Assuming you aren't including the Richards header chance in the box.

[TXSG8R 3362]

Canada will take that card all day. CP needs that touch and foul in the attacking third, not in our half of the field. He either has to track back a mile or get on the touch line to get the ball on his feet. Gerg needs to fix that. 

[RamjetFDO 10575]

Do. Better.

[Firemans4Horn 18036]

Paul Arriola thought that free kick sucked. 

[ztejas 43411]

In theory - who is the best set piece taker on the team? Does anyone take them for club? Pulisic does sometimes. I would think Dest would be good but he may not have much experience. 

Aaronson maybe? I feel like I recall him having some nice ones for us now that I think about it.

I've seen HS players with more technical ability than Zardes. 

This dude gives me the major sads.

Well the corner flags are high school surplus, so.....

[Firemans4Horn 18036]

McKinnie’s final ball near their box has been so bad.

I don't know about on-target shots, but Acosta was doing pretty well on set crosses and corners last year.

Helluva save there. Should've been even

Of the players on the field, I would think that Dest is drastically better at set pieces than Puli.

On the bench, Acosta is far superior as well. 

The temperature does probably have something to do with the suckage, but Puli did have one good corner…

…check that, TWO good corners. 

[TexArcher 37770]

Oh, fuck's sake, what a save.  God dammit.

[kingkoopa6 8347]

Wow. Sick save 

[TXSG8R 3362]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[Coach pop a bitch 5459]

Dammit 

[Firemans4Horn 18036]

Wow. Great save by the goalie who looks like he’s playing in a Rec league

Yeah but we aren't going to play Acosta just for set pieces. Maybe Pulisic is the answer lol. He has good ones he just has a lot of bad ones too. Wish they'd at least mix it up and let Aaronson take a few. (Or Dest)

[TexArcher 37770]

Okay, we finally got a shot on goal in the 43rd minute.  Onward and upward.

[TexArcher 37770]

Hey, buddy.  Niiiice kick.

[Jive Turkey 12594]

How are there 3 minutes of stoppage time? There were no major injuries. 1 goal. 

[Firemans4Horn 18036]

Really have no idea what scouting report lead Arsenal to sign Turner. 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3236]

How are yall watching this, cannot find the game anywhere

[ztejas 43411]

I feel like Dest has played pretty good D for his standards down the right.

Overall I don’t think we played that poorly. It was one moment that cost us. Otherwise we have dominated possession and have made it a lot more uncomfortable for them than us. 

[eljinca 279]

Great save by the dude who looks like he’s playing in a Sunday league.

 

Reffing is approaching peak CONCACAF.

 

Looking forward to Greg looking down the bench and saying “Paul Arriolla is what we need now” around minute 60.

Yeah, he's not been bad.

Credit Canada for their pinpoint one-touch passing on that goal-scoring counter. (And Richards for what appeared to be a bit of ball watching.)

Meanwhile, our guys kick it all over the field but always bottle it when approaching the 18-yard box. Whether it's showing too much of the ball or poorly aiming/weighting a pass, there's just not much precision to our efforts in the final third.

Truly amazed with what Herdman has accomplished in such a short span.

[alincoln 2371]

Canada is more than happy to cede possession and let us turn the ball over in the final third.  We have no 9 and no one who can unlock a defense with a killer pass.  
 

Turner was a 1 out of 10.  Awful distribution and weak effort on the goal.  Really shit performance from him.  
 

We always suck in the first half which really speak to greggg’s inability to gameplan.
