Wow, Goodson got away with one there. One goal is not going to be enough with this back line.

At least they're doing well with the offside trap. Lichaj has acquitted himself wll in the attacking end so far.

Absolutely. But if you noticed, when we put pressure on the defense of Guadalupe, they've made mistakes. Need to push the mids and defenders up just a bit more to keep the ball on the attacking side.

Bradley almost had a sick goal on that short corner. Back heeled it through the legs and it almost snuck through.

I love these soccer-specific stadiums and I love international atmosphere. Awesome.

Grandel has twice had to come 20 yards off his line to take care of a dangerous ball.

They're doing exactly what they should be doing in the attacking end, the finishes just aren't there yet.

Guadalupe keep is keeping them in the game. Wow.

 

[jlb1705]

Dempsey has been way off-target with a few prime chances.

what else is new

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

I hope they don't score, cuz this just feels like one of those games where we do 9 of the 10 things needed to score, and never finish.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Ugh, this team just looks poor.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

stop being a dumbass, dempsey.

 

[jlb1705]

Wow. That was lazy. No excuse for that.

 

[OHSportsFan]

This is like a U-8 team.

Get the fucking ball off your foot. Everything is a step behind. You don't have that much time at this level. Fuck.

And g-d deuce.

 

[Mac]

Dempsey needs pulled for good, off the team. That was absolutely terrible.

Altidore continues to produce

I'm in a hotel and can't watch. What's the score and how much time left?
