That 3rd goal was painful to watch. No one pressed Blind and Dumfries was wide open in the area. That's down to bad coaching. Hope the US gets a real pro after this.

How is it the US still suck at 'soccer' after all these yrs? Razz Maybe they should start taking it serious n actually change the sports name first Very Happy

Seriously US should be better, I guess the only logically explanation is as above, ppl just prefer lots of other sports?

Here's hoping in 4 years USA produce more quality number 9s. Feel like US was good going forward but lacked more goal. They also need more vision in their midfield.

Netherlands looked comfortable the entire time and dangerous on the on the counter. FDJ is having a great WC. I don't think they'll be easy for Arg/Aus to get through

I’m not sold on Holland tbh, I think the USA just made it too easy for them. If Argentina doesn’t choke today I think they will win the QF easily.

I’m not the least bit impressed with Argentina. If they make it to semi, (and that certainly is not a given any more) I say Brasil will demolish them!

Lautaro shouldn’t see a single fucking minute again. You can’t miss 3 sitters while your team is leading 2-1. That’s inexcusable.

They will be lucky to beat Holland! To think they only beat lowly Australia because of a major error by Aust. Portero!

If pace and power was a stat Tagliafico would be a zero. He’s the least physically dominant player ever.

Overall decently happy, although I think we let them back in when we could've sealed it earlier. A combination of missing goals we shouldn't have and a freak own-goal from a bad clearance.

Hope this is the last time we face a parked bus because I'm so tired of taking these apart.

De Paul great game after the 1st goal. Alvarez fantastic off-ball movement, really stretched the play (thanks Pep!). 'Egg' Acuña was a menace throughout.

On the other side, every time Cuti Romero tried to play from the back I got a little scared, other teams will try to exploit that. And Di Maria was missed before Messi scored and the game opened up.

BarcaLearning wrote:Ffs, Arg is so negative, a CB on for a AM already on 49th min XD

We switched to 3 at the back to allow the FBs to push up the field and widen the play (arguably should've started this way). It was not a defensive move.

Yeah he got injured prior to the match, but might be available vs netherlands

He's going through a Lukaku spell. It'll sort itself out when it matters most... and if not Dybala was warming up and nipping at his heels.

I didn't want to say it because GL jynx but now that it's out, he's been massive this entire WC. Just bracing myself for the inevitable fuckup.

The train rolls on. The major test will be Netherlands, which will put my hypothesis to the test that they can raise their game when needed. If they win that I think they'll win the WC.
