Y’all know this game essentially means nothing today (all likely realities) right?

It was a huge game up until the point Iran scored in the 98th minute. Then, getting a result here became tons less important. It moved the first half of this game behind 2nd half of the football game in importance in all likelihood.

@ztejas

I'm obviously watching both. I was responding to someone that said they weren't watching the USA/England match.

If we win we just need to tie Iran and we're through.

If we draw then we just need to beat Iran by 1. 

If we lose by 4 goals then we need to beat Iran by 2. 

Today still matters a lot.

Not really. Still better to win than lose. I’d start out chasing the game. If we get a goal cool. If we get down two then bring on the subs for anyone sitting on a yellow.

Why would goal differential matter vs Iran?   It doesn’t as it relates to Iran. It only matters if Wales beats England which I already mentioned. I don’t see that as particularly likely.

You're right - it doesn't. Good catch. 

UNLESS Wales does something crazy like beat England. 

It still matters a lot if we win today.

Right. Which is why I said in all likelihood the game doesn’t matter. It’s also why I said we should absolutely chase this game from the outset because it’s a free roll at a win. And if that goes wrong early concede.

This is stupid. Of course the game matters. The result gives the US more runway against Iran, plus leaves us a chance to still win the group if we win.

We have no more runway v Iran if we tie. None. Chase the game. It’s all upside with a win (least likely occurance). Tie doesn’t really help us outside of a bizarre scenario where Wales wins Tuesday. loss doesn’t hurt.

The only people that agree with me are those that tend to like being right. Big day for you.

I mean, they can still play this game.. 

we can worry about the next game when its that time.

Id be sad, if no Ream for Iran tho.. he been lock down.

[APMP 688]

Our most in form player, who has been wrecking shop in England no less, one again starts on the bench. Damn it Gerrg.

The US kit is so ugly it's a modern art masterpiece.

Don't worry Gregg will sub him on 20-25 minutes late in the 2nd half.

I thought this was funny. From my buddy.

Not having a minimum of 2 TVs in one room if you’re a big sports fan is pretty unacceptable these days unless you’re a poor.

I'm so glad this game is only medium important instead of crazy important like it would've been.

No credit given!

We're playing scared. Someone needs to attempt something downfield. 

[TexArcher 37774]

Decent build-up there.  

Let's get it going.

[ztejas 43449]

FUUUUUUUCK DEST 

Be better.

We are sitting deep and trying to counter. Solid strat against a better team. The majority of englands possession is just swinging it around the back.
