Oh dear.

 

[Eephus]

very nice equalizer

 

[Senor Schmutzig]

How did I know that was coming? Hell of a goal there. They were all watching...

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Gonzalez should've closed down there on the wing after the cross went over, I'm not sure what he was doing there.

The US defense is really struggling to work together.

Yeah, they looked disorganized on that corner. It still took a lovely finish from Honduras.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Ok let's get out 1-1. Not the best half by the US. Not completely outplayed but you have to say Honduras had the better of the play.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

What a ragged game ... both teams look like they're running in sand. Doesn't feel like anyone's hustling.Thought the US had got it back to about evenly played right before they scored the goal.

Thought the same thing. I'm assuming it's the heat and the heavy turf, but it seems like everyone's standing around a lot.

not really a surprise though. I think the only time Chandler and Gonzo ever met was when Chandler ran into Gonzo in practice once in Germany and Gonzo blew out his knee last winter.I think this is going to be struggle to get out of this with one point, but would be pretty ok with that. Not as much from the US getting a point but more from blocking Honduras from two extra points as I subscribe to the theory that US, Honduras, and Costa Rica are fighting for 2 spots.

Espinosa is having a bigger effect on the game than Bradley is. That needs to change in second half for a positive result.

not aimed at you, Andy, but I hate this thinking. Our mentality has to change in regards to these tough fixtures.We have the better players, the better team, hopefully they can win in tough circumstances and not just home games in good situations.

I meant get out of half at 1-1. I would still be ok with a point though.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Bradley should have done better there IMOA bit too nonchalant

 

[The Gator]

Nice body check by dempsey

 

[NewlyRetired]

Lots of chances already in the half. Cam really gave Bengston a gift there.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Oh thank god that was a late flag.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Very good call

 

[Steve Tasker]

Great call there....US dodged a bullet, just offside.

 

[The Hardline]

US looks lazy there is no other way to put it. Lucky to have that second goal called back on offsides.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Lucky there...Defending is shambolic right now

 

[QuizGuy66]

dammit :( wait WAVED OFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!Um, our guys will soon be dodging batteries -QG

 

[NewlyRetired]

Interesting sub for US.

 

[jonessed]

Honduras has been the better side. I think the US would be lucky to come out of here with a draw.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Wow, the US is going pretty defensive here early with EJ coming off.

 

[Eephus]

Wow, the US is going pretty defensive here early with EJ coming off.

He didn't do a whole lot when he was on

 

[The Gator]

Jesus,did Jozy swim to Hon?

 

[NewlyRetired]

In reality no one has.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Lots of fairly straight-forward scenarios are becoming adventures here.

 

[Txns8]

This on radio anywhere?

 

[NewlyRetired]

Weather really affecting US. All 3 subs used at the 66th minute.

 

[The Gator]

Nobody in front of Zusi for 20 yards and does he dribble in? Stops and crosses

 

[Ted Lange as your Bartender]

W. T. F.

 

[Eephus]

oof

 

[Steve Tasker]

Oh god no

[The Hardline]

How is THAT not called purely lazy?

 

[jonessed]

The defense is just lost. What a mistake.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Nice Human Centipede celebration!

 

[Eephus]

don't book your 2014 Brazilian whorehouse reservations just yet

 

[The Gator]

Nice Human Centipede celebration!

Nice Human Centipede celebration!

Nice Human Centipede celebration!

 

[Steve Tasker]

How is THAT not called purely lazy?

That entire sequence was lazy, and Chandler (who has looked lazy all half from what I've seen) wasn't even involved. How horrible.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

How are we so bad at this.

 

[Ted Lange as your Bartender]

Here we go.... the snipers finally showed up

 

[NewlyRetired]

It is going to be a long hex. With going to Mexico in game 3, we may be looking at a must 3 points next game against Costa Rica.

 

[jonessed]

Klinsmann needs to take these defenders by the scruff of the neck and slap them around for a bit. This is ####### awful. None of them seem to even care.

 

[The Gator]

I don't know who watched more of this game, me or the US team

 

[AcerFC]

How much time left

 

[NewlyRetired]
