    CONCACAF out CONCACAF'd itself last night.

    Wish they had the balls to actually do something about Mexico and their fans.

    But, whatever. On to our real rivals on Sunday.
    Mexico fans are such trash.  That brutal chant and constantly throwing drinks at the players.  Just a horrible fanbase.

    McKennie red card was bullshit but the one on Dest was deserved.  Those are 2 huge losses for Sunday.  Balogun was pretty much non-existent but Pulisic was incredible.  Tres a cero!

    As far as Berhalter goes, WTF?  I've never been a huge fan but what a complete waste of the last 6 months with these interim coaches to end up bringing back the same guy.  No matter who is in charge of US Soccer, it always seems to be a complete clown show.

    Classic USSF. I'm not upset at Berhalter coming back as I am the complete clown show the process was.

    Even though how the accusations went down were shady as hell, they had to do some sort of investigation.  You can't just brush off something like that nowadays.

    It is unfortunate that he was let go for a period of time.  But hey, he's back.

    I forgot the name of the family that was butthurt and decided to shed the light on this 30 years later or so, I would hope they got banned at some point.

    I think we've beat them or tied like every game over the past couple of years?

    2019 was the last time Mexico won. 

    We are 5-2-3 in the last 10.

    Yes, nice.  I knew we were doing well against them these past few.

    The team looks good.  Pulisic is amazing.  Hope to see us get a good run in the Cup.

    It's the B team + Matt Turner. Should absolutely make the final and would be a bit of a disappointment not to win it all.

    The dreaded MLS B team.  Wanted to go to the game Saturday vs Jamaica in Chicago but the prices are crazy.  Wish they would have the Gold Cup every 4 years so it actually mattered.  But that's now how CONCACAF rolls.

    Happy I didn't waste money on that game last night.  That starting lineup was rough.  They did look better with the subs.  Bailed out by Turner saving a penalty.  This tourney might be a struggle.

    He's going to absolutely dominate that joke of a league.

    Nice start for the US women last night.  That game easily could've been 6 or 7-0.

    My 5 year old nephew kept accusing the Vietnamese of cheating last night because they had boys on their team.

    Like half the team seemed to have really short hair cuts. lol

    Your kid isn't woke enough, lol.

    I remember Vietnamese females always having short hair for years.  Now you say it that is odd I never noticed it.

    Women's team looks like they need more practice together.

    The team that the Union kicked the shit out of tonight from MX was awful.  



    The USWNT had a draw.  I thought they would smoke everyone.

    Netherlands played a solid 50 minutes of frustrating total football - gotta give them credit. The US is not nearly as good as past teams at finishing - there is no proverbial Carli Lloyd on this team.

    Yeah that was really entertaining.  The Dutch are really tough....very disciplined team that rarely makes mistakes.

    Also didn't realize that Trinity Rodman is Dennis Rodman's daughter.

    Rodmans daughter is a beast on this team.  Keep your eye on her!

    Van De Donk, #10 for the Netherlands was tough as hell.  She wore that swim cap so she didn't bleed everywhere.

    That's a competitor!

    She and Horan are actually friends but played like they wanted to kill each other, lol.
