Nice to see the pitch in such pristine condition for a World Cup qualifier.

I expect CONCACAF games to be played in dung piles. This is Basel, Switzerland in the heart of UEFA.

Re: World Soccer XXVIII: Campeones de NorteAmérica.

So take a look at teams from 2014 that didn’t qualify for 2018:
USA
...
Netherlands
...
Plus potentially:
...
Italy

Assume FIFA will just increase the field to 128?

It turns out that Will Grigg was not actually on fire, and the Swiss defense was not all that concerned.

That list of countries is exactly why FIFA is increasing to 48 in 2026.

Italy about 10 minutes from being out.

Gustav Svensson from Seattle came on as an injury sub for Sweden.

Should be interesting to see what the Italian leadership does in wake of this...if they will resign like we all thought Sunil should have or what...

Italy, Netherlands, Chile, and the US would've been a group of death in other World Cups. Maybe they can have a NIT

Resign? If they’re alive by Friday I’ll be shocked.

I just mean from the perspective of Sunil's comments about coaches resign but presidents don't typically...Italy feels like it will clean house...like you said

Yeah, I imagine plenty will be taking blame. Right now I wish I spoke Italian.

Depending on what Denmark does tomorrow, we could have three Nordic nations in the WC.

Italy leaves Giovinco in Toronto, fails to qualify. Sweden brings on Svensson, qualifies.

Not saying, just saying...

Whats the US excuse?

 

[Jimjamesak]

Whats the US excuse?

Everybody in CONCACAF had MLS players so it all cancelled out.

And they sucked.
