USMNT - Greg Berhalter Takes Over

[Alsacs]

Morris off at halftime? Anyone say no?

He is by far the first person I want off.

This is the best we have done against Mexico at keeping possession. I know it’s not Mexico’s A team but to GB’s credit our game plan has been excellent.

 

[ForCuseSake]

Cannon has been fantastic.

Ream too.

Cannon has been fantastic.

Ream too.

Ream is thrilled to not have Leon Bailey running at him tonight and he’s been excellent.

 

[ForCuseSake]

I thought Pizarro just dislocated his elbow or shoulder. That looked nasty.

Edit - the magic spray fixed him right up.

 

[SUfanNC]

Solid half for sure.
Morris has done zero.
Arriola would suck to play against. So annoying and constantly around.
Jozy has been solid and that cut to get an open shot was awesome. Have to finish that tho. Our half to win.
Mexico is so fing whiny

 

[creatorsgam]

Wow. Put one away already. So close.

 

[ForCuseSake]

Pizarro running at Bradley is no bueno.

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

 

[ForCuseSake]

Dumb foul from Arriola.

He’d been having a good game before that idiocy.

 

[ForCuseSake]

How is that not a booking FFS.

 

[ForCuseSake]

Bradley is shaky potatoes out there.

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

Tata is a whiny clown. He found the perfect job fit.

 

[ForCuseSake]

Adios JoMo.

 

[Alsacs]

Altidore was gassed.
So I get putting speed out there.

 

[ForCuseSake]

Don’t like that we’ve wilted under Mexico’s high press this half.

We’re conceding possession too much and bunkering back a bit.

Playing with fire.

 

[Alsacs]

How Alvarez isn’t in the referee’s book already is amazing.
This is a prototype CONCACAF officiating match. In any other federation atleast 4 yellow cards would have been out by now.

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

Mexico has taken over this match and have completely won over these officials. Not a great combo.

Bradley needs to step up our midfield has gone away this half.
We need to win in the middle.

I’m not sure I’d ever say this but this game might need Wil Trapp.

Contact from behind (not tackling) has been very inconsistently called. Sometimes no whistle for running up a player’s backside.

Other times a light hand on the small of the back is called.

Granted I am pretty much a novice when it comes to soccer. But man does Bradley look slow. Also dont we have any other high end offensive guys ur strikers besides Pulisic? What happened to all those German American players and that dude from iceland.

He doesn’t look slow he is slow. He’s been a turnstile this whole tournament and the injury to Tyler Adams really hurt. Johannsson has been decimated by injuries since the WC in Brazil. Most of the German-Americans were fazed out by Arena and Sarachen. We could really use Fabian Johnson right now.

 

[Alsacs]

We need Boyd for the final sub.

#4 Mexico is a pile

 

[ForCuseSake]

I like Michael Bradley and I hope this is his last tournament as an on field contributor.
