I'm positive the Iranian FA will make a formal protest to FIFA to have the U.S. disqualified due to giving the world "The Kardashians" or something like that.

Honestly, that’s a solid argument. If it got rid of that entire family, I might be okay with it.

Hoping those Iranian players get their families safely.

Excellent result but I'm now worried about the real world consequences

No different than North Korea in 2010.

I was at the game they played Portugal in South Africa (7-0 POR) and I kept thinking they'd (NK) would be punished.

The players were sent to work camps after the World Cup for an undisclosed period (it could've been a week, who knows).

I can't understand why anyone would want to risk playing a sport for a country that will punish you and your family when you lose.

I keep picturing the movie "Victory." Maybe they all planned to escape while they were abroad. Problem is, their families would be stuck back there with the consequences. Ugh

Well that was intense. I may have died a little but first mission accomplished. They won’t leave these last 4 years complete failures.

Now let’s make a run (I think they can)

I think Pulisic and Sargeant's health status are the 2 biggest question marks. Zimmerman was the only sub that came in that I thought matched the intensity in which the game was being played. Acosta was ok, but Moore and Wright added nothing the final 20-25' of the game. That's an issue if either has to play more against the Dutch...... and where is the scoring going to come from?
