What the fuck.

 

[Nesotenso]

back line strikes again. gonna be a long night

Seriously. How the fuck do you not drop back if you're a defender?!?!?

 

[CrazyDogg77]

I haven't watched our national team in a while bit it seems we're plagued with the same issues we were last time I watched.

 

[DominoKid]

our defenders blow.

 

[CrazyDogg77]

Man Howard bails his defenders out so often.

 

[ozfunghi]

This isn't "really" our B team. Hazard is missing, but other than that, these are players that either are regulars or about equal back-ups.

I hear the US is missing some regulars too.

1-1

Vertonghen got shoved in the back :/

 

[daoster]

Oh man.

USA!

Geoff Cameron!

 

[Dartastic]

BEAUTIFUL

 

[Askani]

Boom!

 

[DominoKid]

oh shit we scored!

 

[TheVisualizer]

Nice execution on that corner

 

[CrazyDogg77]

Nice goal.

 

[Askani]

Lucky break there. He was onside.

 

[ozfunghi]

Arm doesn't count for off-side so that goal should have been valid.

Edit: Ugh, Poccognoli instead of Vermaelen. Maybe are now playing with a B team. Fellaini is sucking ass btw.

Edit2: Wilmots is losing it. Dembele out instead of Fellaini for Benteke...

 

[DominoKid]

oh that's a stonewall penalty. yikes.

edit Belgium already making subs. weird but alright.

 

[ozfunghi]

That referee is out of his league.

 

[Nesotenso]

oh that's a stonewall penalty. yikes.

edit Belgium already making subs. weird but alright.

don't know if transatlantic flights ahead of WCQs is the smartest thing. USA not on the same page a lot of the time.

 

[DominoKid]

better than expected so far. it'd be nice to score one from open play though.

 

[MiKeD]

Edit2: Wilmots is losing it. Dembele out instead of Fellaini for Benteke...

That baffled me aswell.

 

[ozfunghi]

I'm a bit irritated with the referee. The USA goal should've been cancelled for an obvious push, and the Belgian goal shouldn't have been cancelled due to on-side. Penalty or not, it should have been at least a comfortable 0-2 lead, not a 1-1 draw. I expect Wilmots will be wanting to win this thing, because Belgium will move up to 12th place on the FIFA worldranking if they do. Hate to sound like a sore loser though :/

Edit: USA corner (goal) was also off-side, according to a Belgian analyst.

Alexi Lalas keepin it real.

He just rambled on for 2 minutes and tore all of our national team pool's defenders new assholes except Gonzalez, and I pretty much agreed with all his assessments.

Cameron looks out of place at RB. What's the deal with Chandler now ?

edit: just checked to see dude is out because of torn knee ligament.

 

[Judderman]

Gods, who do I have to plead to so that we always use this crest?

 

[ozfunghi]

lol

what an idiot

 

[DominoKid]

our defenders are the WORST

 

[Nesotenso]

gonzalez should cleared that.

 

[Dartastic]

The back line strikes again.

 

[Askani]

Horrible.

 

[daoster]

Just got home in time to see that second goal.

Nice.

freaking backline.

 

[ozfunghi]

Fun fact: only one player on the pitch that still plays in Belgium: Sasha Kljestan

 

[daoster]

haha...Germany is going to destroy us aren't they.

 

[Judderman]

Goddamnit.

 

[ozfunghi]

Fellaini with his first decent effort.

 

[Askani]

What shit mistakes. Such a worthless giveaway.

 

[DominoKid]

haha...Germany is going to destroy us aren't they.

probably. thank god Bayern still has the cup final though. could be worse w/ their A-team.

 

[TheVisualizer]

Pack it up

...so who is hosting the 2018 World Cup and any thoughts on potential players we will see wearing the Red White and Blue?

 

[Judderman]

Wow, this is embarrassing.

 

[Nesotenso]

Pack it up

...so who is hosting the 2018 World Cup and any thoughts on potential players we will see wearing the Red White and Blue?

there is nothing to pack up yet. Mistakes on the first two goals can be fixed. Gonzalez et al. shouldn't make the same mistakes when it matters.

 

[CrazyDogg77]

Damn.

 

[Dartastic]

Disgusting. Seriously?

Isn't this our 2nd squad or something?

 

[daoster]

Against Germany....over or under 5 goals allowed?

Over or under 5 goals for this game right now??

 

[DominoKid]

name your score belgium.

 

[ozfunghi]

name your score belgium.

Well... Mertens usually scores one right before the final whistle.

 

[Nesotenso]

Against Germany....over or under 5 goals allowed?

Over or under 5 goals for this game right now??

well it is not the first choice German squad.

 

[methodman]

Lol at no Donovan. Not that he'd carry us to victory, but there's no service at all to jozy, that's why he's always sucked with us

 

[Dartastic]

First things first. FIX OUR DAMN BACKLINE.

 

[ozfunghi]

now he gives a penalty
lol

 

[Nesotenso]

First things first. FIX OUR DAMN BACKLINE.

at least Beasley has looked better than he did against Mexico.

lol what PK ?

 

[Judderman]

Yay.
