I know this may be a long shot, but does anyone remember one of the USMNT game where we where just heading the ball back and forth with no purpose. I want to say it might have been a qualifier. And is there a GIF of it? Thank you in advance

I want to say it was from the opposing teams goal kick. we headed to their defender, they headed back, then we headed back to them. Each time our player had space to bring it down, but we just kept heading it back and forth.

It's because we suck at soccer watch just about any major team and just watch passing. They are smooth and crisp yet soft. Everytime Bradley passes the ball there is a thud to stop it. With the exception of Landon and Clint the US has had zero talent, also they Landon and Clint wouldn't start for 75% of the world cup teams and wouldn't make the roster of 50% of the other teams

with talk of the tactics Berhalter brings to the USMNT it reminded me of a USA game recently when there was a few seconds of just back and forth of heading the ball with no point. I can not remember the game. I know there is a lot of knowledge here so I thought someone would know what game i am referring to so i can try to find video of it.

yes, I know its hard to believe that I have a friend in the real world that I was having a discussion with. yes singular friend(i consider him one, he might consider me a stalker) however, I brought up the topic of "Berhalter's tactics are an improvement if the USMNT are not just heading the ball back and forth like in one of our recent games" but i cannot remember the game. It was with Arena or Klinsmann.

he's talking about a specific game in the last qualifying cycle. I think it might be against Guatemala where both teams were literally volleying the ball back and forth for almost 30 seconds. it was the worst soccer I've ever seen played over U17s
