Right back is a mess right now - killing us on that side

 

[Steve Tasker]

US getting crushed right now.

 

[The Z Machine]

Lots of shout outs for "Goochi" here. That's both good and bad. Good that he's stepping up, bad that he has to step up.

Boca is even worse but Dos Santos isn't on that side

 

[TwinTurbo]

Boca is a mess right now. Horrible tackle.

I was thinking it was more Dos Santos playing well than Cherundolo playing poorly.

 

[QuizGuy66]

1/2 time Uno a Uno.

 

[Steve Tasker]

I'm loving these commercials.

True. Dolo does look a step slow but his positioning hasn't been awful. He just has his hands full. On the other side, I'm not sure we wouldn't be better off with Heath freaking Pearce. I hope Spector comes on at the half, especially with Boca picking up that yellow.

 

[ffldrew]

Ugh

 

[The Z Machine]

I'm talking a gang of smack in the chat on terra.com video. it's fun to rile up the mexicans in their own language.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Vela + Dos Santos = bad news

 

[prefontaine]

I like both subs I think. Clark has not played particularly well. However, Boca should have been first

 

[Big Rocks]

Whew, great save by Howard.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Dos Santos with enough time to read the paper and drink a cup of coffee with the ball at his feet in the box...

 

[QuizGuy66]

Howard is just a beast!

 

[ffldrew]

OMG - how much time and space can you give THAT GUY - unmarked .

Thank God for Howard

 

[Genedoc]

Pretty sure the other team isn't supposed to occupy your box more frequently than the 100k fans are occupying the pissers.

 

[QuizGuy66]

cmon USA let's deliver a soul crusher to these guys now!

 

[Genedoc]

WTF was that?

 

[Steve Tasker]

I believe that's Nery Castillo about to come in...ungood...

 

[Native]

Really love Davies game....just missed on that header. What an athlete.

 

[Big Rocks]

Soooooooooo close

 

[Native]

whhhew.

 

[Steve Tasker]

FIGHT!

 

[QuizGuy66]

ah, there's the Mexico we all know.

 

[The Z Machine]

Good match

Can the US weather the storm for 80+ minutes?

 

[Native]

Jozy in.

 

[Native]

No cards after that altercation? How is that possible?

 

[Genedoc]

There is an exceptional amount of pissiness in this game.

 

[ffldrew]

Basically US has to forget looking at the refs - they aren't going to get any breaks so it does no good.

 

[prefontaine]

There is an exceptional amount of pissiness in this game.

Yes. Quite unusual for a Mexico-USA game.

 

[Native]

No possession in the midfield again. We need to gain control of the ball.

 

[QuizGuy66]

glad to see us giving back a little - even though I fear that'll give the ref excuse for a lame call.

 

[Mjolnirs]

I've got it on the net, but Comcast lied! Not on my TV anywhere.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Atrocious defending.

[QuizGuy66]

#%)^#*(&$_@#$#! :( :X

 

[Big Rocks]

:(

 

[walnutz]

Will continue to get chippy here. Freaking Mexico .. I HATE them. Still some time to make something happen here. We need to stay composed and get something together here.

 

[ffldrew]

Whipped down the flank

 

[Steve Tasker]

What in the #### was Bocanegra doing??????

 

[prefontaine]

WTF was Boca doing there? In the replay he is just standing at the top of the box marking no one.

 

[QuizGuy66]

gee surprised to see a Mexican player slow to get up now - I'm sure he's very hurt :(

 

[Steve Tasker]

WTF was Boca doing there? In the replay he is just standing at the top of the box marking no one.

Not only did he not chase Juarez, he didn't mark Sabah in the box 10 yards away.

 

[Native]

Here come the cramps and the injuries....

 

[The Z Machine]

Guess not

2-1 like I said

Damn. So close.

 

[QuizGuy66]

and again :(

they are floppin' so fast I bumped into the post flood control

 

[walnutz]

6 minutes to go here plus added time. We need to get some attack going. Gooch to miss next games.
