June 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 11, 2017 -> 08:11 PM) Such a whiff by Omar Gonzalez on the header there. You gotta put that on net That's twice now. I really don't understand this lineup by Arena. No Fabian Johnson. No John Brooks. No Tim Howard. So far Beasley and Guzan have screwed us and our 3 center backs stood around while Beasley forced Vela to the middle of the field like an idiot. Edited June 12, 20178 yr by chw42

I guess Arena said Howard would have played if the game was on Tuesday but cause of the quick turnaround and his injury, they went with Guzan. Would be nice to get some help from the refs. I do like Nagbe coming in
June 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 11, 2017 -> 09:23 PM) A point at Azteca is decent. For sure, great result. Love to hear the frustration in the Mexican fans. Beat Panama at home and a top 3 finish should be secured.
June 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 11, 2017 -> 05:42 PM) So awesome. I take back everything bad I've been saying about him recently The other strike he had late in the 2nd half was fantastic as well. Mexico was all over Pulisic, but you can still just see how special he is. He had a late run that he struck wide right, but when he touches the ball...you think something special can happen. Very very premature statement...but he seems to have an "it" factor.

Sucks we got to wait another 3 months till we get more qualifiers. This team is looking better right now...never know what we look like in 3 months (if guys get hurt, etc.). Love getting that point in Azteca.
June 14, 20178 yr What a game between Panama and Honduras. Honduras takes second half lead and starts to blatantly time waste. Of course karma bites them and panama gets the 90th min tie. Honduras is on life support now for a playoff spot. They needed to hold on to those 3 points.

Huge result for the US, keeps them in 3rd place. Win their last 2 home games (tough one vs. Costa Rica) and they are basically in.
September 2, 20178 yr First and last qualifier in New York, not to deflect blame from the players. Qualifiers should only be held in Trump country. That US v Syria playoff will be fun.
October 7, 20178 yr Panama eventually was pretty much out to injure Pulisic. Kid had a huge game. Huge win and I feel sooooo much better now. On to T&T and then let's go to Russia!

Don't want to think about where the US would be without him
October 7, 20178 yr The atmosphere tonight was insane. Orlando should get some more meaningful matches in the future. Really good to get a big score line. Goal difference should be safe now. Now finish this off.

Don't want to think about where the US would be without him This runs through my head every time I see him getting kicked with the national team. Last thing you want is a sour relationship with the club team that has your best player. That said, Dortmund is probably thrilled with the marketing exposure he gives them in this country.
October 11, 20178 yr 2 -1, guess who scored. This team would be so screwed if not for the Wonder Kid.
October 11, 20178 yr Dempsey really miss struck that hit, but at least on goal. Everyone seems like they are playing in slow motion.
October 11, 20178 yr If we lose, we have to play in a tie-breaker, no matter what, correct? And that is only if Honduras and Panama don't both win outright (correct). If we lose and they both win, we are eliminated, correct? Which is quite possible given the fact that Honduras is now beating Mexico and Panama is notted up with Costa Rica. We better find a way to get the draw!!!
October 11, 20178 yr Tug in the box but no call. Wonder when sponsors start to step in because US not being in Russia could cost them millions.

All 3 scenarios are fully in play.
