US Men's National Team (50 Viewers)

[NewlyRetired]

I like that JK thinks this is his best lineup and he's rolling with it, but man does he open himself up to some hollerin' if they fall flat again.

this might be the first times his words after a match are consistent with the lineup he puts out in the next game.

=============================================================

In my younger days I would have been able to answer this question immediately but now I can only ask.  How many times, if ever, has JK used the identical lineup two games in a row?

 

[NewlyRetired]

US has not lost to CR in a competitive match(ie non friendlies) at home since 1985 

12 win and 3 draws in the last 15 competitive games at home against CR

 

[The Gator]

No changes to the starting XI from Friday.

i mean hey, if it ain't broke right?  Sigh

#USMNT lineup: Guzan; Yedlin, Cameron, Brooks, Johnson; Jones, Bradley, Bedoya; Zardes, Dempsey, Wood. #USAvCRC

No changes. #MyCopaColors

Stubborn Jurgen is stubborn

99% chance this is coincidental but I like some soap in my opera's....

I still feel fairly confident tonight.  Maybe that is misplaced.

I like that the weather is going to be cooler (50s tonight at game time).  That should allow the US to hopefully play with more energy and press the CR's.

It's chilly. Got a good lake breeze going.

 

[El Floppo]

Think we can get this kid an American passport?

Would be an automatic start on this team

omgomg that av

Just another player who's not two footed. We have enough of those

Rooting for the Mexican national anthem to troll Costa Rica.

Ticos got their hoodies?

 

[Christo]

Tica!

 

[CGRdrJoe]

They should have played the German national song for us

Need some snow

 

[Eephus]

Bryan Ruiz flopped during the coin toss

 

[ffldrew]

Nice turnover.......why do we insist on going to the dead end on the wings

Time of Possession - CR 5:10  US :15 secs

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Wood, take a few more touches in the box please 

 

[Christo]

Wood's gotta hit that shot first time.

 

[Sinn Fein]

pulisic would have scored that

 

[The Kansas Comet]

I agree with Dellacamera - late call, but correct.  I think the cross was going long anyway.  Stupid play from the Ticos.

 

[ffldrew]

Dive

 

[Sinn Fein]

it was a push-dive

 

[TripItUp]

pulisic would have scored that

hello, exactly

 

[GregR]

 

[Christo]

Deuce!

 

[TripItUp]

Now Costa Rica can't park the bus

 

[shader]

Nailed it

 

[CGRdrJoe]

 

[ffldrew]

Well this will be getting out of hand for the ref real early - I sense some shenanigans coming from Costa Rica. Starring Ruiz most likely

 

[The Gator]

Wood's gotta hit that shot first time.

almost exactly what I yelled 

 

[ChiefD]

Good Lord we are slow.

 

[Poke_4_Life]

We are 2 for 2 taking out players with shoulder injuries. 

 

[huskers15]

This wood guy sucks

 

[TripItUp]

Wood out at half please...

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Ouch - that miss hurt.  Good God Zardes, learn how to control the ball.

 

[CGRdrJoe]

Wood is fine, he's playing balls into space but our slow ### players need ball to feet and don't move off the ball

 

[GregR]

Every time I see a closeup of Bobby Woods I think of angry eyebrow baby.

 

[Sinn Fein]

Zardes and Yedlin on the same side is not a good idea imo

 

[AAABatteries]

We are way too panicky in possession.

 

[ffldrew]

Zardes - OMG brother

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Ouch - that miss hurt.  Good God Zardes, learn how to control the ball.

x2

 

[Sinn Fein]

Landycakes would have buried that

 

[Christo]

Jones!

 

[ffldrew]

That looked like a mistake by Dempsey

 

[Ted Lange as your Bartender]

JJ!

 

[The Gator]

You need speed for a recovery run when you're always getting beat 

 

[AAABatteries]

Jones!!!
