US Men's National Team (8 Viewers)

[prefontaine]

holy hell how is that not a card?

even the spanish announcers are perplexed

 

[El Floppo]

This ref is really ****ing awful

 

[encaitar]

Absolutely should've been a card no matter whether he already had one. Terrible no call.

 

[El Floppo]

This ref is really ****ing awful

AND now people are getting hurt as a result.

What the ****

 

[The Z Machine]

Handbags time

 

[NewlyRetired]

what a make up yellow

 

[tonysmiles]

Reyna deserves it makes it easier to not play him if he is taken out by an opponent he does not deserve a roster spot

 

[El Floppo]

LFG Gio

 

[NewlyRetired]

Gio and GGG should unite to create an awesome heel tag team and fix our fan base

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Charlie Davies was speculating, just as many people on Twitter have. I think his theory is a little fanciful. Do I think it would have been an issue if the US hired a name manager for $10 million plus a year with Jill Ellis (a woman manager who has all the silverware) on a fraction of that? Yeah. But Vlatko is a man who hasn't won anything yet. The USSF settled the Title IX case, not because the case had much legal merit. It didn't. But it was a PR nightmare for the federation. I don't think this would be the same.

I thought he's been really good tonight.

Of course he has. This person is a troll or a xxxx.

Eta... Uncool of me, regardless of this guy's opinion.

 

[The Z Machine]

Montes has some ants in his pants socks.

 

[NewlyRetired]

this game has the feeling of some one breaking Pulisic in two. Lets get one more and sub him out, this is getting chippy.

Does the potential threat of another lawsuit and tens of millions more lost to lawyers have any merit for consideration though?

 

[prefontaine]

It didn't. But it was a PR nightmare for the federation. I don't think this would be the same.

yeah, I actually think there is more risk of pr problems hiring Berhalter than wage disparity.

I think the simple answer that our Fed are bumbling idiots is far more likely.

Agreed. Better than I've seen him in a while. Coming deeper to get the ball and not asked to create off the dribble (or choosing not to) play hero ball.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

I see we've reached the shrug emoji stage of refereeing this game.

Dont we need to cap tie a couple folks?

 

[El Floppo]

Btw, turners feet have looked a little... Dodgy

There's no threat. Vlatko is male. There's no discrimination based on his gender.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Reyna adds spice.

US still needs a legit enforcer type -- someone to take a sneaky payback foul to slow this crap down when the ref won't do it. Been a hole in the roster since forever.

From the Gold Cup roster. Think everyone on the roster today is cap-tied.

 

[El Floppo]

Swag has been off

Isn't that Adams?

Ah yes.... The Jermain Jones role.

Not the player he was 2 years ago it seems.

Booth and Sonora I think can be cap tied (are they on the bench?)

 

[prefontaine]

well, this was coming

 

[The Gator]

It's popping off!

 

[NewlyRetired]

Balagun: "you guys were not kidding about the rivalry"

 

[lardonastick]

holy crap

 

[The Kansas Comet]

well, this was coming

Exactly. The ref could have calmed this down earlier if he was anything close to competent.

 

[TLEF316]

Adios muchacho

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Ref sucks *** so hard.

Created the whole thing, then chickens out when the results of his work inevitably happen.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

WTF

 

[El Floppo]

Wtf?!!!!!! What the **** did swag do?!

 

[SpurrierisisGod]

What??? Why mckennie red?

 

[NewlyRetired]

straight red to Weston? Wtf??

 

[AAABatteries]

**** this ******* ref

 

[TLEF316]

Ugh. And now I assume Wes is out for the final. Trash

 

[prefontaine]

ridiculous crap....can VAR review this?

 

[encaitar]

Holy **** this ref is absolutely awful.

 

[El Floppo]

If swag is red, another mex player or 3 should be off

 

[NewlyRetired]

don't they have VAR?

 

[The Gator]

This ref is really ****ing awful

unbelievable

 

[SpurrierisisGod]

Placed a hand? Cuz he was getting choked

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

His shirt tore itself off.
