    I am surprised how pricey it is to see Messi play in the U.S.   Hasn't he ever played here before during a pre-season tour with Barca or PSG?


    And yeah, he sure is making Major League Soccer look pretty damn minor league.
    I once said “SLC seems OK with one major league team” (this was before they were making MLB and NHL overtures). my SIL said “ we have two major teams.” I said “huh?” she cited real salt lake. I let it go.

    Not a bad start for Pulisic in Italy.  So happy he got the hell away from Chelsea.

    Milan should be a great fit for him. He already has chemistry with Giroud from their time at Chelsea and it showed yesterday. Then add in Musah once his suspension is over.

    I know it’s not US soccer but have you seen the shirt show that the Spanish coach caused by kissing his player on the lips?

    I have zero clue why he thought that was ok…

    What a weird sentence: "Despite a 2-1 second leg loss to Trinidad & Tobago in CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal play, Gregg Berhalter’s squad sealed a berth into the 2024 Copa America tournament and reached the Nations League semifinals."

    Yay, I guess?

    Seems insane met life gets the finals. More corruption or strictly they wanted to New York or L.A and LA had it last time?

    Philly gets 6 games but with the US team starting in sofi, seems like the rumors of Philly getting a usmnt is gone. Oh well. I’ll be going to a few games for sure

    Philly gets July 4th for round of 16.  If USA makes that round then I think they would be here on that day.

    My brothers and I have been planning to go, saving money in advance.  Looking at the schedule, maybe watch Canada in Vancouver then drive down to Seattle for the USA game.  I wonder how accurate these ranges are for ticket prices: FIFA World Cup 2026 Tickets – FIFPlay

    I realize that, but used it for reference since we won't get anything official for another year or so I imagine.

    Wow did they get lucky last night.  Absolutely horrific performance the first 95 mins of the match.  And Jamaica was missing a bunch of top players.  Berhalter still sucks.  Just hard to believe he's the guy that's going to lead us into a home world cup.

    That said, they beat Mexico soundly and won a trophy.

    Love the dominance over Mexico. Might be nothing more satisfying in all of sports.

    Yeah that was pretty damn enjoyable.  That goal by Adams was sick.  Mexico fans continue to be some of the worst fans in all of sports.  Still doing that stupid chant and always throwing shit on the field when we score.  My 7 year old has caught the soccer bug big time and was going nuts when the US scored.....I've created a monster.
