GOD DAMMIT TAKE THE SHOT!

 

[Caoz]

Dempsey doing an impersonation of the mexican forwards...

 

[FootballFan]

How is that a foul? Outside of the small area... Both going for the ball... What ???

Goalies get more protection than the outfield players. You really can't even touch them, especially when they are jumping for a ball.

Outside of the small area they're like all the other players.

Guys, the football thread in Community has a bigger discussion going on about the match...

That's what the small area is for no? Doesn't matter anyway Gio didn't even score a goal...

 

[PopeReal]

Lasers? Really?

No, cats are agile.

 

[Clydefrog]

0-0 at half-time. Great so far.

 

[ActStriker]

Wasn't it supposed to be 3 minutes?

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Lasers? How do they regulate that?

Like, if it's pretty damn obvious that a keeper has a laser in his during a penalty or something, what happens?

Nothing, unless he complains with the arbiter. (That he will do nothing, just point somewhere in the stadium, and then continue)

 

[NobleGreenBeast]

Nice job, so far. Nice job, so far.

It happens A LOT in La Liga.. it's really hard to get rid of them. And usually nothing is done about them.

So small and easy to sneak into the stadium. And then finding the person doing it is very difficult.

Thanks, I was wondering why so little discussion.

 

[Petit Melon]

I am glad it's still a shutout, but this is USA we're talking about so when the first five minutes pass of the second half I'll prepare for the worst.

Knowing FIFA, goalie would probably get a yellow card for complaining

 

[rodvik]

Do not injure Guzan you bastards. We need him back in one piece.

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

we need to push through the middle more

we haz no wingz

 

[Clydefrog]

I want to see this happen tonight:

That's unfortunate. I mean, it would be really hard to nail someone during regular play, but during a penalty? That could be a problem.

Probably.

Lets file an official protest for playing in an unsafe environment due to potential eye injury and the Mexican FA's inaction in preventing it.

 

[Frank the Great]

michael bradley is such a stud

It's only in Mexico, of course.

it is a shame that FIFA doesn't do anything to prevent the shit that fans do. all they have to do is disallow a penalty or something when the fans point lasers and they'll never do it again

Fair enough.

Though, I feel sorry for the arbiter that makes that decision... gonna sneak out of that stadium.

(And then, their own fans will point laser to their teams to avoid a penalty)

I didn't see the incident but was it the thick green lasers they use in La Liga?

Like this?

From this angle you can see the person that is poiting the laser at Messi :lol. Just watch right next to his head.

Edit
Hah. Deadly Paw posted the answer I guess.

Twellman just said the B word. Becker.... no I can't finish it.

if you stand before a mirror and say the B word three times, your hair is replaced by strands of hardened mud with fungus growing on it. and you forget how to play football.

 

[sazabirules]

Beckerman is way too slow.

 

[sefskillz]

sweet, espn ditched the ticker

 

[TheChits]

Good lord that was awful

 

[jtb]

cannot afford to consistently fuck up the counter like that...

 

[Petit Melon]

Nice pass.

 

[rodvik]

Dear USA, try actually supporting your own players in possession. jesus that counter was dreadful.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Mexico looks so much better than Yoosa.

 

[Clydefrog]

thank you salcido for slicing that

 

[shoplifter]

What the Christ

 

[ClassyPenguin]

Why can't USA ever be consistent? They're all over the place.

 

[ActStriker]

Klinsmann why you taking out Jozy

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

weird sub

why Jozi???

 

[ConfusingJazz]

I would rather have Jozy playing right back then Beasley right now.

Or left back.

Whatever, I have had a couple beers.

 

[Clydefrog]

oh my god EJ for Altidore?

edit: wow honduras imploding

 

[darkside31337]

holy fuck i cant believe beasley is still in.

 

[FootballFan]

Crossing/Corners have been very bad this game.

 

[GhostWriter24]

I have a feeling the stars and stripes are going to steal this one late.

 

[Clydefrog]

wow that was Chicharito's chance

 

[Petit Melon]

I swear their comfort zone is midfield. :|

 

[GhostWriter24]

Mexican fans exhaled on that one.
