    Another important note is that due to North Korea's ban in 2015, they were also banned from the Asian Cup, which is also a WC qualifier. That meant for the 2018 Asian Cup the dropped all the way to the bottom pot in the draws, and by luck were put into South Korea's group. They drew with SK and tied them in the group, but lost out on goal differential.

    They could have just been easily put in a group where Thailand, Vietnam, or the Philippines was the top team. So instead of the 11th ranked team in the world, AFC sent the 34th. I've got a feeling USA vs DPRK would have been a little closer than 13-0.

      And that'll be the final. Finishes a goal short of the all-time USWNT win.

          Well they will play Sweden in the group stage, who beat them at the Olympics, and likely France in the Quarterfinals.

            I had forgotten about that and wondered why N. Korea wasn’t there.

            The US got gifted a draw with Thailand and Chile.

            Edit: I didn’t pay attention.

                  Evidently a sportsbook in Britain had a promo where you could bet on the US to win the Cup and get a dollar back per goal scored. 2/1 odds, so you're not making bank, but if you laid 25 down you just increased it to 4/1 odds today.

                        Well that’s my reaction to the reaction. Especially the inevitable MNT/WNT comparisons.

                          I will say that this maybe a bit much after scoring to make it 9-0.

                            These aren't friendlies. It's a tournament where goal difference matters. Score as many goals as you can, whenever you can.

                              Tell me how many times the USWNST needed to give a s**t about GD after even a 6 goal differential even 1 time?

                              The women were +3 in 2015, Germany was +14 and they still won. In 2011 the US was +4, Brazil +7, Japan +3, Germany +4. They lost in the final.

                                No one was saying lay off, but celebrating like that when you're up 9-0 is ridiculous.
