What an insane game.... really hope this was their 'we have arrived' game. Such a young squad that can only get better.

Most entertaining game in years! I hope they catch all those fucking Mexican fans throwing shit on the field and ban them from ever coming to another US game!

still think there are a lot of false dawns with US soccer. these kids are not street smart enough in US system. kids around the world play from minute school gets out til dark all around the world for free. US is protected pay to play system which does not breed interest in finer details of craft IMO

I absolutely can not fucking believe US Soccer reappointing that flaccid dildo Berhalter as manager. It's like they want the men's team to never really grow, when it now has more talent than it ever has. Guessing Reyna is done.

They won a few cups under Berhalter and if Reyna's parents weren't complete a-holes they might have been in better form going up against Netherlands. That said you fears have some merit and I hope they don't go backwards. The team looked very poised and determined vs. Mexico and this game vs. Canada, although they got badly out-possessed in both.

Why those matches weren't readably available to the public to watch is a bit ridiculous. Paramount +? Really?

I believe MLS is only on Apple TV now. I have Apple TV.. but I'm not going in to a fucking app to watch second rate soccer.

Reyna's parents are assholes, hopefully they can all move past that. I just can't see why Berhalter or US Soccer would want to get back together but if it works out I guess I'll live with it.

Yeah, they've really fallen off a cliff. Horrendous stuff.

It's to the point with them that if they fall behind 1-0, you know the best they can hope for is a draw. I've got a better shot of scoring with Kate Upton twice than the Loons have of scoring two goals.
