Hopefully we get Colombia vs Mexico in the semis. Would be a great match.

Hopefully Pitbull will parachute out of a B-21 bomber transported from 2025 and personally smite our opponents like the true goddamn American hero he is.
Hallelujah.

that's right.
i demand my goddamned hotdog
I *almost* decided to buy tickets for the meadowlands on the way back from the game. Glad I decided to hold off...

There are still seats in the first section near the corners of the field for $150
Hmm
I doubt it would piss CONMEBOL off, they are the ones pushing for a unified Copa America tournament apparently? I mean this one wouldn't have happened or be in the USA if the South Americans didn't want it.
Hmm
I want Panama to win its last game, half of the Concacaf teams qualified would be pretty sweet and! piss off Conmebol in the process too

Not many other options
If they setup the seating like they do for Sounders games, sit on the south side, that's where the best fans are at.
I just wish we could move Fabian Johnson into the midfield. Having him so far back is just stupid.

This is some straight up Keikauke shit for Argentina.

Yedlin is an idiot. Glad the US gutted that one out and props to Brooks and the rest of the defense for stepping up.
Costa Rica CONCACAFing Colombia is just the icing on the cake. Good times.

Me too, but the US is seriously depleted on the wings, both at fullback and wide midfielder, right now. Don't have many good options even if everyone is healthy. :/ I guess the thinking here is to keep the defense intact as much as possible, so you make one move and play Orozco rather than moving Cameron or Johnson over from where they've been starting so far.

I've heard of the possibility of 40 teams meaning we'd get the same amount of groups only now with 5 teams instead of 4 where only two qualify. I'd be behind that! Five competing for two positions would be brutal!

If Peru beats Brazil and Ecuador beats Haiti, Brazil is out.

After this Copa how can we go back to Gold Cups and 10 team + 2 invitees Copa America? We need a unified Copa America like this and give out two confederations cup tickets!

as long as it's not permanently in the US I'm all for it.
I know, it's just frustrating to see him so far back when he could be so much more effective further up the field.

Mexico will still go and CONMEBOL can invite Japan or Congo to fill the last spot.

Do you have a link for that? It would make perfect sense and I would love to see it happen every 4 years (next one in 2020), but I have seen no evidence of a unified America Cup outside of this Copa America Centenario.
I mean we have Copa American in Brazil 2019 and Ecuador 2023 already confirmed which will be conmebol teams only. We also have a Concacaf only gold cup next year, so I'm really wondering where you're hearing that.
IMO those conmebol and concacaf only championships should continue, but a unified Championship is really the best option and a nice alternative to Eurocup for the 2nd best nation vs nation team championship for soccer.
That sounds like colombias problem.
Lol, like if Argentina decided to play Messi as keeper randomly and then lost 5-0. Theres no asterisk, you just made a dumb decision.

It's been said by the media here and there. I didn't hear it until about a week before the tournament started.
But I can't go back to the shitty old gold cup after this. We need this!
But yeah, not just in the US.
Alex_Mexico

Agreed. Mexico should be next. We've been a consistent participant since 1993 and we've yet to host one cup, dammit.
Even Ream seemed better than Orozco but oh well
It happened in the world cup as well.
Don't worry, Arg will never fail to choke at the finals.

Group A winner!!!!! Thanks Colombia for fucking it up and sitting everybody. Can you imagine if they lose in the next round. There will be blame. Also combine that with the own goal. I just don't want to see another 30 for 30 movie.

You aren't the only one that is hoping for that. Could be a pretty fun match.

Confederation Cup Final 2009. Still gives me nightmares. Hell of a USMNT team though, beat Spain during their reign.
That was the first US match I ever watched. :''''(

I don't even know how I forgot about that one. I thought the US had it in the bag.
But Brazil can never score just one goal. They always follow up. Well except when, you know...

Hahah it was horrible. Just have to block the memory and the vuvuzelas. Now I just wish the US could go back to a confederation cup.
Also poor Charlie Davies. That team was stacked.
ayyy lmao
oh man
i can't even imagine. being up 2-0 against brazil, thinking "this is it!"
that counter-attack goal after the brazil corner is one of my favorite USMNT goals of all time though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXkModt0v1s
Donovan's touch is sublime

Honestly, I'm glad it was my first match. I lost years off of my life from todays game, I couldn't even imagine the stress from a confed cup final.
