World Soccer XXX: We Have Men Too!

[JF_Gophers]

Mexico has to go to kicks to advance past Costa Rica.

By r/ussoccer logic, Tata Martino should be fired instantly for playing so poorly against an inferior CONCACAF side despite all that talent.

(US and Mexico play in the final Sunday)

He should definitely be fired if he cant beat a crap US squad. ;-)

With a 0-0 draw versus The Bahamas yesterday, Trinidad and Tobago has been eliminated from World Cup Qualifying.

Canada’s momentum could come to an abrupt halt Tuesday if Suriname pulls off the upset.

VAR certainly changed things in this game... Went from 2-0 MEX to 1-1 in two minutes.

VAR gave both teams a PK in the second OT though.

What a save by Horvath, especially after coming on as a sub, to give the US a 3-2 win over Mexico.

Wow. First (important) sporting event I’ve cared about in 15 months. Man, I missed sports!

Well, he did get ejected at least…

I hope this game is that moment that sparks this generation of the USMNT. I’ve been worried about their ability to play in CONCACAF but, the kids are alright.

Does winning CONCACAF mean anything substantive? Does it qualify them for anything, get them round byes in the next Nations Cup, etc?

It was worth more points for FIFA rankings than what a friendly would’ve been.

Other than that, just a trophy. The US is in the top group so there’s nowhere else to go. Just starts all over again with group play next year.

If anything it tells the kids they can hang with Mexico at the very least. Although from the one highlight video I watched it looked like Mexico far 'out-chanced' the U.S., although I realize a highlight video only goes so far telling the full story.

The first 20 minutes was the US just passing it to Mexico. Not like Mexico was anticipating well and getting into the lane, literally they were trying to make passes through defenders.

After that things started clicking.

It’s a win and a trophy over Mexico, that’s substantial enough on its own.

I agree, I was just wondering.

It'll shut up some of the "the women should be paid more because the men suck" crowd.

Yeah, I went there.

btw this is the first men's kit I can get on board with for quite some time.
