U.S. Men's National Soccer (Official Thread)

Honduras always gives the United States problems.

They're actually not a bad team...I wouldn't be surprised to see them make the semis again.

Hey now, let's not be insulting tomato cans. Beckerman is one of my favorite players (I like defensive midfielders, I am boring as fuck ) but he was also bad. The defense reminded me of early 90s level of awful.

WTF is wrong with you scooter

For those stuck at home on a lazy Friday night, the US will be beating down Haiti in about 15 minutes to win Group A.

The US has been trash so far, just like the pitch.

It's borderline criminal that games keep getting shoehorned into NFL stadiums with a temporary pitch on top of a fake one. There are plenty of good, soccer-specific venues in this country with a proper playing surface. Why keep playing in half-empty stadiums made for other sports?

If MLS was smart enough to get away from it...WTF isn't the Gold Cup?

Even FS1 was ready to pull the plug on this crap.

Haiti has better dribbling skills than anyone on the US and that is sad.

Luckily they can't shoot for sht

 

[OHSportsFan]

When's the next women's team game?

 

[OHSportsFan]

And of course they get CONCACAF'd

Just wanted a relaxing Friday night, assholes.

Jesus Altidore goes down easily

First half highlights:

Wow! The officiating was awful. Every time the US stared getting moment a Haitian player would hack him down. And half the time it was not even called a foul.

I think the poor play is directly attributed to the poor officiating.

 

[jlb1705]

Bradley is wasted as a CDM and Dempsey has had to come back way too deep just to get the ball. Bring on Beckerman for Jozy so you can move both of them up the pitch. Also, sub pretty much any other winger on the bench for Mix.
