Have a hard time believing Garreth doesn’t find the net out of nowhere. Opps will be there now as they’ll need to leave their shell at some point.

Absolute Brilliance

Brilliant pass and finish.

As expected, Wales is trying to beat up Pulisic...

much sloppy passing by the U.S.
Luckily usmnt isn't just Pulisic

He's probably not even the best player on the team.

McKennie is in the conversation. Didn't Dest have a record transfer fee for a US player? And in a year or two it may be all about Musah, already the youngest player to start a US WC game, i expect him to have a lot of interest from a top EPL club.
U,S,A, has got this match if they continue.  
Optimus-NY : 11/21/2022 2:55 pm : link
It's theirs for the taking. They're just better than Wales. Lt's get another to put the screw to the Welsh.

Not even close. Pulisic's transfer fee from Dortmund to Chelsea was £58m. Dest's move from Ajax to Barcelona was €21m.

Right.. i was thinking of Dest's buyout clause which was swt at a whopping 400M pounds.
Wales  
AcidTest : 11/21/2022 3:13 pm : link
is a lot more aggressive to start the second half. Maybe that will create counterattack opportunities.
US...

We are going to have opportunities on the break because Wales is attacking so aggressively.

and stupid penalty. We've really been bad in the second half. Not enough possession and unable to clear the ball.

we came out like ass like half. we'd be down 2 if wales played like this the entire game.
Completely unnecessary

Bale

had his back to the goal, but again, that panic play was a function of being desperate to clear the ball.
US always plays so dumb

Messing up easy passes, not being aggressive when they should be, stupid challenges. They’ve been this way for a long time now.

Basically.
There's  
AcidTest : 11/21/2022 3:50 pm : link
a saying that fusion is the "fuel of the future, and always will be." That also seems to apply to U.S. soccer. We've been told for 25 years that the future of U.S. soccer is bright. But the team always seems to have the same problems, namely poor passing, difficulty clearing the ball, and a lack of creativity in the midfield.
The refs...  
bw in dc : 11/21/2022 3:50 pm : link
are just the worst.
Qatar can’t even get their refs right….what a clusterfuck this is

How popular would the NFL be if a penalty that had nothing to do with a scoring chance gave the fouled team the ball on the opposing 1 yard line?

Everything off the field about this sport is disgusting and corrupt and the games are decided by complete bullshit made up calls.

I tuned in to see an elite athletic contest and it's filled with fake injuries and flopping and a game deciding call that had nothing to do with the outcome.

Back to US football and baseball for me.
