Forgive me for being ignorant to the game, but it seems like we control possession when the match is even, but as soon as we get a lead, we let the other team control it. Am I off here?

Honduras is pressing and going all out on attack because they have to have a goal in the next 10 minutes.

I think we've still had the majority of the possession since our goal.


Maybe so, but we were so strong the last 15-20 minutes. Why not keep that kind of pressure up? It seems like we didnt give up a whole lot of transition chances.

So were they more or less playing for a draw the whole time?

Every time Honduras gets the ball, they are sending more and more guys forward. To counter that, we kind of have to play more defense.

Possibly. There's nothing to lose now in going all out is what I was getting at.

They were probably playing more defensively than normal because they are missing a lot of starters, but I feel like they have been playing for a win.

They had been trying to play defense and score off a quick counter. It almost happened a few times.
