I like how both sides play clean and do not try to force fouls. In that regard it’s a good match. A little boring from our side I’d say. Seems we just let the Americans play around with the ball and just counter.

It's funny that you say that. Netherlands are the founders of possession-based, "totaalvoetbal" playstyle and yet USA has all the possession and attacking stats.

Cocacaf is a shame , Mexico and U.S. have a lot to do if they want to reach quarters or even semifinals next world cup.

Specially Mexico than was a joke this WC.

Feels like my team (Netherlands) has been sleeping their way to the quarter finals, but hey, we got there! Other teams have been more entertaining to watch.

It was reasonable when the US scores their goal but they packed the same energy and didn't defend as good as the other games.

Onto Argentina!

Welp Im just glad ole USA actually qualified this year then made it out of the group. Was a morale victory.

Slowly but surely after enough people have been concussed in the NFL… parents will start funneling their kids into soccer and we’ll turn the tide. 2094 is our year world… were coming.

Alright team, what does the USMNT need to do to get better before 2026?


From my noob observation, the Hollanese players were in a completely different league than us. It looked like a college football team vs. an NFL team. We were just slaughtered!



I know that people from the Netherlands are Dutch, it's a joke.

Better defense, Other trainer, not using the advantage of having a fitter team.

Fucking hell your right flank was out running blind like he was standing still. And you did not take advantage of that. Being better at the foul game. Trying to get some free kicks. More practice in counter game. I don't know man. Shit ton.

Soccer, yes Soccer, Is the 4th most popular sport in the US, over taking Hockey and is breathing down Baseball's neck. When, not if, it becomes #2, 3, the world will see a serious World Cup contender in the US. More and more kids are playing Soccer now a days, watching and learning from the best leagues around the world. It's only a matter of time, might take 20, 30+ years, but it will happen.

Australia playing pretty defensively but luckily Argentina is pretty sound technically and has been able to break the lines. And great players like Messi take advantage of any chances like that and that's what elevates you to another level when you have players that just need little spaces to create

Yeah, like I said, it looked like professionals vs amateurs in that game. We have to a least put up a fight.

Anyway, good luck to whatever team you root for, I got no dog left in this fight.
