[ConferenceRoom 6,144]

Wow. 

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,103]

So do they not use video review for that?

Him and Robinson give the US so much speed on the edges. Huge deal for this team.

Antonee has been solid on D again but again hasn't done a whole lot going forward. He's usually more dangerous than he's shown these past two games.

Early goal by Pulisic. Top flight defense late into second half. Then they earn a PK then puts them through 2-0. LFG

Tracking well so far. 🤘

If the lines mowed into the grass are straight then he was on.

[Captain Ron 12,883]

There's the graphic He was off. Close though.

[Braff Zacklin 13,618]

One of the best halves I've seen from the USMNT in a long time. No shots from Iran, nine for the US, three of which were on goal. Isn't that as many SoG for the U.S. in a half as it had in the first two matches?

 

And a fingernail from being up 2-0!

[PittsburghTiger 6,190]

Seen heading to the Iranian locker to give halftime talk.

Let’s be real…refs have to look out for their own lives too this match

They did, they don't wait for them to show it in stadium, in game to resume play.

The system they use is automated and gives instantaneous results. We will get a Disney screenshot later.

We were pretty damn solid. I'd like to see us be a bit better in the 2nd half. Maybe get AAron on around the 82nd minute.

IMHO, Iran is/was letting us have the game. They were ceding possession to us. For as well as dictated play, our mistakes are still on display.

 

But we got our goal.

 

Now we can't let up. We need to get another maybe 2.

Eventually if you put enough raw talent on the pitch even the worst managers can't help but win some games.

Granted Gregg hasn't totally fucked up this tournament. Yet.

So it’s just a night time thing? Asking for a friend. 

[TexArcher 37,977]

Calling my shot: this ends 3-0.  We hit them again from standard build-up and another on a counter.

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

Weston Mckennie helped get us 1 goal almost 2.

No question. But we broke them down hard. Second half they'll have to come to us. Counter attack FTW. SUPERIOR AIR ATTACK!

Why did they not show offside replay in highlights with computer graphic? I want to see if it was or not.

You know - this is why getting more goals is important. We need to sub out some of our yellow cards. And we don't want to do that with just 1 goal. We need more.

I mean Sark finally learned he had Bijan and Roschon in game 24 so hope springs eternal

Because Fox touches themselves at night.

They showed it right as the game went to half:

 

[Juicy 727]

put aaronson in and keep the pressure on, if it is fat morris and defensive subs and we turtle they should make gregg become a migrant worker to clean up.

all that will do is piss you off when you realize it was less than a few inches from being good

[crash_davis 23,113]

If Weah doesn't completely lose his shit every time he gets in the ball inside the 18, it would be 2 or 3 goals for us. He's had a shit game.

[SimonBolivar 10,958]

Wow Mexico is on FS1 instead of Fox tomorrow? I guess they figure all the Mexicans will watch on Telemundo.

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

Aaronson! He's gonna be on them like flies on shit.

[Captain Ron 12,883]

Well, CP out - Aaronson in.

[Macklemore 2,872]

Aaronson in! Let’s go! Hate to see CP out

[Lurch 5,931]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuck

[SimonBolivar 10,958]

CP did his job, Aaronson is one hell of an injury replacement
