May have talent but US hasn’t had that American son of a bitchness bite in forever.

came out with amateur ass attitude

Ok a lot to debrief this morning but I think this team has some attitude and bite now. Great to see the pride match the talent.

You're assuming CBS was willing to pay more to have it on their over-the-air network. The game was on where the network (CBS Sports) was willing to pay to show it. If CBS (or NBC, or Fox, or Mickey Mouse) was willing to pay more for the rights, it would have been over-the-air. It's about $$$.

Tata Martinez got a red for putting his arm around the ref, while trying to take a peak at the VAR screen. Wild game.

Back so soon. Friendly vs. Costa Rica, 7pm ET on E!SPN2.

no clue what to expect. Still happy with Sunday’s result so tonight is whatever, I guess.

It’s amazing this is solidly our B team. Still a lot to like.

Ill be honest, its going on rhe dvr

And this a friendly and all that stuff, so I am all about seeing this group as it is.

What I would also be interested in seeing is ..

Taking:

Aaronson, Weah, Musah and Llletget and rotating those 4 all counterclockwise 1 click

Though I suppose its only fun if we play someone this way and very soon do that. Y point is Weah is about the same probably, its Aaronson and Musah I am curious about, and Lletget can handle all 6 forward positions mostly competently (if hes false 9ing) at worst its not gonna break having him at the 8.

Same. About to go on a post-dinner walk so I’ll catch up to it…sometime.

If I'm a goalie, I'm only ever protecting near post. It seems like there's some unwritten rule that says you can only shoot there.

1st half watch

Dominated the ball. Team looked in sync and confident. Ticos…what happened? Far from the CR team that made a run in 2014.

Tyler Adams is the glue to any lineup. Skill and control, he was commanding the game

Dike- movement, holdup play, power finishing. Welcome young Jozy.

Not a lot of tests for the defense- quiet half for Cannon, Ream and McKenzie. I like Robinson pushing up on the outside.

Lleget, solid.

Horvath got to hang out after lots of action Sunday.

Weah, Musah, Aaronnson (little Messi?)- fun, quick, creative kids that will push for minutes. Exciting times.

7 goals (2 PKs) in 2 games against Mexico and CR, by 6 different players and none above age 22.
