Cautiously optimistic. If Juergen doesn't screw up his team selection, we have a good shot in this match.

Need another monster game from John Brooks at the back, but we need more attacking options than just waiting for Deuce to bail us out up front.

My Mexican-ness doesn't allow me to ever vote for team USA. But I believe they will win in an unimpressive fashion (the Klinsman way).

Ecuador will be tough to beat

But I'm going to give this one to the USA

I root for Mexico

I think we're the better team. I think it's close, but I think the USA has a bit more quality. Will we show it? That's the question as always.

Either way, I'm very hyped, I'm very excited, and I've got my Dempsey jersey on circa USA 2010 WC, so let's do this.

I think America will pull through. The lack of Yedlin to pressure the opposing left back will invite attacks from Montero on the wing. Orozco to start on the right, again, to quell some of the threat.

It's not like Yedlin has proved anything so far though, in fact, he's been one of their weak links. Don't think his absence will be influential.

Yeah it's time we admit that Yedlin is kinda shite.

He's like Kyle Walker but Kyle Walker is better at everything. Except Walker isn't even that good

Basically a typical spurs player

Montero already with a look at goal but just over the post.

Yeah he was frail Defensively and is not too brilliant Technically but when countering Yedlin, at least, is able to force the opposing SB to retreat.

Ugh Bobby, just got there.

GOOOOOOOAAAAALLLLLL! 8D

Brooks has been everywhere.

Ecuador uncomfortable at the back. Cameron's done as well, imo.

Brooks is a monster, though.

Bradley's played pretty oddly in front of the box lately.

Bradley is shit

Great half

John Brooks is very impressive

Good to see Brooks getting the appreciation for the monster that he is.

Bradley has been utter shite this game. Wood has been pretty decent but his touch let him down as the game went on, what a goal from Dempsey you know when you give him a chance in these kinds of games he'll bury it. Back 5 is an interesting choice from Klinsmann but it's been alright so far, US has only really been exposed from our own mistakes rather than trouble Ecuador is giving us.

Would like to keep possession a bit better next half. Half time whistle was well timed as we started to lose our composure a bit.

45 minutes separating the US from a Copa America semifinal.

Brooks is nice he's killing it at this copa

Hopefully all goes well as it has. It's actually been a rather smooth game apart from some bumps on the road.
