    Big one tonight. Hard to see the US taking down Argentina, but you never know. Hopefully it goes the same way things went when US beat Spain back in the 09 Confederations Cup.

    Hoping for a solid showing tonight. Not often we get to see the US play a team like this in a tournament, so pretty pumped.
    Yep. Just don't want them to get embarrassed. I am pretty confident that they won't. Let's go USA!!!
    exactly this. so much this.

    Defensive pressure by Argentina is crazy. US is obviously not handling it well at all.

    Agree. It could've gone a lot worse.

    Still not happy with the result though. We were crap-er tonight than we had been.

    If Argentina pressed, they could have scored 10. The US didn't touch the ball and had a grand total of 0 shots. Not good

    Yeah. That was really bad. Didn't expect to beat Argentina, but that was just an awful performance all around. Turned the ball over so many times and so many heavy touches.

    Bradley was especially bad.....it seems to be hit or miss with him. Wondo was exactly what you would expect Wondo to be. When your starting front 6 are all MLS players, things aren't going to work out too well against the best team in the world.

    Worst loss since 2009. Only team in the last FOUR Copa tournaments to go an entire match without a shot. The best player in the world & his team made us look like rec leaguers.
