50k sold! only 10 more to have a FULL BIG O in Montreal, that's crazy

 

[sazabirules]

#USMNT starting XI: Howard, Besler, Brooks, Gonzalez, Chandler, Johnson, Bradley, Jones, Pulisic, Wood, Altidore.

Not surprised Chandler is starting. I've heard he's been playing really well for his club this season.

 

[Cornballer]

Can't tell if that's a 3-5-2 or 4-4-2 for the US. At least it gives them some flexibility...

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Fs1 seems to think it's a 3-5-2

 

[tim.mbp]

More like 5-3-2

 

[BTM]

Big match tonight. Lets go USA!!

 

[Dr Campino]

And the game isn't even on TV in Canada, eugh. I want to watch a good quality version!

PM your Reddit user name.

Also, Timmy Chandler in the midfield.

Panama won in Honduras. Impressive.

That game had terrible officiating.

 

[Cornballer]

Costa Rica up 1-0 in T&T now

That game had terrible officiating.

Unsurprising

 

[Clydefrog]

Well here we go, guys

 

[tim.mbp]

Fireworks make everything better.

 

[Clydefrog]

Three in the back? Oh jeez....

 

[Cornballer]

Defensive shape looking a little shaky so far.

 

[jabuseika]

holy..

 

[B-Dubs]

Goddamn that was close. Howard did good to touch that one.

 

[Cornballer]

I like the formation in theory as it gets most of the best US players on the field, but it's clear they're not comfortable with the defensive rotations. Kinda dangerous...

 

[Clydefrog]

:/

And Mexico just scored. They needed way more experience with this formation, just pulling it out of a hat is no good.

 

[NoRéN]

This is the most alive I've heard my neighborhood since election day.

 

[Falchion]

Fuck that was a bad goal.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Is there a dedicated thread about this game?

 

[Xplatformer]

I fucking hate Michael Bradley. If he's the best we can field at defensive mid, we're fucked.

 

[Clydefrog]

Haha this is bad. Could be 3-0 after 25 minutes

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

The American players have a hangover from the election.

 

[Xplatformer]

Except for Pulasik, the US plays soccer like it's half rugby. It's ugly football and it's pissin me off.

 

[Falchion]

Hope Howard is ok, he's staying in.

That didn't last long.


I like Tim.

 

[Clydefrog]

What a depressing half..

 

[Falchion]

10/10 acting.

 

[Clydefrog]

Call the ambulance for Chicharito!

 

[Xplatformer]

What does Bradley do well other than set pieces?

 

[Nesotenso]

What does Bradley do well other than set pieces?

always second to every ball.

 

[Cystm]

Ugly first half. Ugly formation at the start.

 

[Falchion]

Well as bad as we've played, we're still only down by one. Let's come out strong in the 2nd half.

 

[Clydefrog]

Yay!

 

[Cystm]

That Jozy/Wood combo still works so well. Great goal.

 

[BTM]

Goalllll!!!!

 

[Falchion]

There we go!

 

[Clydefrog]

Omfg

 

[BTM]

Would've been a penalty if he didn't act like an idiot

 

[B-Dubs]

That was damn close. I thought he had that for a moment.

 

[Clydefrog]

Chandler played well tonight. Good to see him back

 

[B-Dubs]

FUCK, that was damn close.

 

[Cystm]

FabJo with the clutch tackle. Pulisic just schooled Chicharito. Besler finally off.

 

[BTM]

What a joke

 

[Clydefrog]

Fuck that shit

 

[Falchion]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

 

[B-Dubs]

Fucking hell.
