I was surprised to see Steffen left off, but what has he really done to cement a spot in the squad other than being the #1 by default for a few years?

Lol they convinced pepi to not play for Mexico then leave him off the squad 

He wouldn't have made El Tri's squad either

Let's Go!

Cliffy6745

Good 30 minutes. Would like a goal before half before these guys can get settled

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM

Can't ask for much more after 45. Now let's close this thing out with 3 points. 

Cliffy6745

This isn't great

I'm not a soccer expert by no means, but was that a DUMB penalty by USA?

Cliffy6745

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

Cliffy6745

Incredibly dumb

so moving on is going to basically come down to goal differential when both Wales and US lose to England and beat Iran? So gotta hang with England on Friday and smoke Iran.

So dumb. There was no need to go flying in like that

Such a disappointing tie.  Wales clearly made major halftime adjustments and Berhalter had no answer.  Reyna not playing at all was shocking.  Friday should be interesting....England looked incredible yesterday.

Chad Johnson in Qatar

Clear path to advance

Damn.  Hard to be upset drawing vs England but holy shit do we need a striker.  Reyna only playing 20 mins so far is criminal.  Put Weah at center forward and Reyna on the wing.  Win and we're in the knockout stage...not a bad deal.

No moral victories, but the youngest team in the tournament playing a game against a top 5 team in the world, and in my mind outplaying them…that was a very good and important game, but it means nothing if they don’t win Tuesday

Oh yeah definitely an impressive performance but the lack of a legit striker is killing this team.  Crazy that with all this talent we can't find a true 9.  Also, Berhalter gets a lot of shit but going with Turner in goal has been a great decision.

Indifference71

This is it.  Time to score some goals.  And here's hoping Berhalter doesn't wait until the 75th minute to start bringing in his subs.  Need to start bringing in these guys around the 60th.

I wouldn't mind seeing a front 3 of Pulisic Reyna Weah...but I'm guessing it's going to be Ferreira's turn

That sure would be nice!  I don't see how Reyna doesn't start this game but yeah, will prob see Ferreira out there today.

Wow.  Interesting time to put in a new center back.  Reyna not starting any of these 3 games is absolutely insane.

US is sure dominating possession
