​⚽ OFFICIAL GOLD CUP THREAD: United States Beats Mexico. Again. ⚽ (2 Viewers)

[Ned]

As a Philly fan, Burke sucks. 
 

(no jinx)

 

[Moe.]

Leon Bailey is not starting?

 

[NewlyRetired]

solid start

 

[DJackson10]

Corey Burke just bummed rush Sands Jesus 

 

[Desert_Power]

What the heck

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

What a save.  

 

[Desert_Power]

USA can't play out of this pressure at all.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Sands and Robinson complement each other well.  

 

[TLEF316]

Jamaica has dope jerseys 

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

They're pressing pretty recklessly.  Counter should be available.

 

[TripItUp]

They're pressing pretty recklessly.  Counter should be available.

Zardes would be perfect.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Beautiful pass from Hoppe.

 

[TripItUp]

cmon Shaq!

 

[Ned]

Hoppe  

 

[TripItUp]

Hoppe  

solidifying a qualifying roster spot IMHO.   He's got some class.

 

[TripItUp]

Dike doing some little things right here...holding up, winning balls etc.

 

[TLEF316]

Vines is just a strange looking dude. Odd looking and a weird body. Doesn't move like an athlete at all

 

[NewlyRetired]

great strike and reaction save

 

[lardonastick]

What a blast by Hoppe

 

[Desert_Power]

Jamaica has backed down a bit after the first dozen or so minutes.

 

[Ned]

great strike and reaction save

left footed volley was so clean. 

I’ve seen enough from him.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Card both of them.

 

[Desert_Power]

Gotta have someone on the back line willing to play a vertical pass.

 

[DJackson10]

Last thing I need is Union players getting hurt 

 

[Ned]

So I guess they don’t water this temp sod?  Not sure what’s worse. This or turf. 

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Hoppe with the HEAT CHECK.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Dike has been completely invisible really.

 

[Ned]

Only thing that’s kept Blake from Europe is his distribution. He’s good for 2-3 balls straight out of bounds every game. 

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

So I guess they don’t water this temp sod?  Not sure what’s worse. This or turf. 

It’s giving me a complex watching every ball become a hospital ball. 

 

[TLEF316]

Lleget taking the set pieces is just mind boggling

 

[El Floppo]

It’s giving me a complex watching every ball become a hospital ball. 

Shaq is getting set up for an ambulance

 

[Ned]

It’s giving me a complex watching every ball become a hospital ball. 

I blame jerry Jones 

 

[McBokonon]

Can we start complaining about Lletget taking corners now?

 

[McBokonon]

Lleget taking the set pieces is just mind boggling

So, yes?

 

[Desert_Power]

So I guess they don’t water this temp sod?  Not sure what’s worse. This or turf. 

Not sure how we can't find a couple empty stadiums with an actually well-maintained field in this country.

 

[El Floppo]

Lleget taking the set pieces is just mind boggling

Was coming in to post that.

Busio and Dike not stepping up just yet. 

 

[TripItUp]

How about Hoppe take some corners please for the love of Christ.

 

[El Floppo]

Nice save

 

[El Floppo]

How about Hoppe take some corners please for the love of Christ.

Anything but Lletget and the short corner

 

[TripItUp]

Turner having a nice half here...good to see.

 

[El Floppo]

So, yes?

Mindbottling

happy?

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Acosta's playing really well.  Couple turnovers but tons of cleanup and destroyer.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

The ball movement, with everything short and slow, reminds me of Wet & Bumpy.

 

[SwampDawg]

F it Lletget again

 

[TripItUp]

Acosta's playing really well.  Couple turnovers but tons of cleanup and destroyer.

I like what I've seen.  Better effort here.

 

[Moe.]

Busio not taking corners is just laughably stupid 

 

[DJackson10]

Anything but Lletget and the short corner

This guys must have naught picks of GGG or something. No excuse for him to be taking corners. That or GGG is low IQ individual when it comes to soccer 

 

[TripItUp]

Fun match, pretty even.

 

[SwampDawg]

US needs to start hitting some simple passes and move the ball.

 

[AAABatteries]

It’s giving me a complex watching every ball become a hospital ball. 

Is it the field?  There’s been so many passes under hit by us and I just assumed it was nerves.  Didn’t think about it being the surface
