OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

[Erial_Lion]

Mexico plays like that their next two matches and they may not get out of the group.

They’ve probably already done enough to get out of the group.

If you bring up anything political in this thread, you will be banned from the thread and banned from the site starting at three days.

I will refrain from stating "I Like Ike"

They looked good, but SA looked like they'd struggle in my over 5 league at times.

Between the 3 hosts, I think we got the Hardest group. Turkey didn’t do great in qualifying but they gave talent

No gummies in our group like Qatar or Bosnia

It always seems like we are in the group of death or one of the hardest 2 or 3 group.

I loved the England/Algeria/Slovenia group in 2010.

Group D has been called the most balanced group. I believe Group I - France, Norway & Senegal is considered the group of death.

 

[Zak57]

Not really a group of death anymore with the extra teams since the better ones all spread out.

[RUChet]

Some ppl don’t like Lalas but I do. He speaks his mind and isn’t politically correct. We need more not less of that from commentators

 

[RUChet]

Shocked if our lineup isn’t the same as vs Germany except Richards in for M Robinson

 

[hinson32]

Who are the experts that said it was a mistake to play in LA? Stadium is 90% US and totally packed.

 

[Zak57]

Let's go!!!

 

[Colbert17!]

Love the USA coach's outfit. Looks like he's got a shift at Wawa pumping gas after the game.

Tell us you haven't watched many UNMNT games since he was hired without telling us.

I admit I was wrong! Of course it’d be full but glad to hear it’s 90% for US!

 

[RUChet]

USA looks more dangerous but we have to translate that into more shots on goal as we only have 1

 

[Caliknight]

We finally have a dangerous offense

 

[ru109]

US has looked good so far.

 

[MadRU]

LFG!!!

 

[RUChet]

More goals the better for goal differential - let’s go!!!

 

[Colbert17!]

That would be correct. I'm one of those people who just watch when it's the World Cup or Olympics. I did notice though that Tim Howard is no longer the GK??

 

[ru109]

Let's just make sure we win this game. LOL

 

[RUChet]

Pulisic by far tbe best player on the pitch. He’s been dangerous all game and created both goals

 

[RU848789]

Best I've seen the US play in a long time. Pulisic has been magic and our touch and control with our passing has been great. Let's hope we don't sit back too much in the 2nd half.

 

[-RUFAN4LIFE-]

I've mentioned before, Dest is becoming a problem for defenses, he's really good with the ball at his feet making defenders miss and getting into dangerous areas.

 

[-RUFAN4LIFE-]

LET'S GO FLO!!

Been a big fan of his ever since he switched to the US.

 

[MadRU]

Was going to say, next goal is big.

Ball recovery in this half has been insane.

 

[Zak57]

Flo!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ru109]

when was the last time we scored 3 goals in a game let along in the first half.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

That was, ummmm…..damn good.

 

[seansherm]

Best half they've played in a while. Everyone played a role. Super finishing by Balogun, really like what Freeman has given out of the back, and they have no answer for Pulisic and Dest dribbling at them.

 

[RUChet]

Credit to Poch moving Dest up the field along with McKennie as under Berhalter both were further back

 

[RU848789]

Great goal by Balogun and what a pass by Tillman - wow!

 

[knightfan7]

I don't follow soccer like I did years ago. I'm pleasantly surprised to see a US team this skilled offensively.

 

[Zak57]

Couldn't have even dreamed of a better start.

 

[Doctor Worm]

That would be correct. I'm one of those people who just watch when it's the World Cup or Olympics. I did notice though that Tim Howard is no longer the GK??

Howard's last game for the USMNT was nine years ago.

 

[RUDiddy777]

We like later out here.

Thats because it takes an hour to drive 3 miles.

 

[Erial_Lion]

Dating myself, but total 2002 Portugal vibes (for those that watched in the middle of the night).

Having a legit striker makes a huge difference and opens up the offense.
