So? What's 15-30 extra minutes? Still shorter than a football or baseball game

Would actually be closer to 45 minutes.

And then you still may need to go to penalties.

Point still stands that it's shorter than a baseball or football game.

It's just extremely lazy.

Well you also have 2 teams in the tunnel ready to warm up for their game.

You're looking at the 2nd game not even starting until at least 10PM on the East Coast.

So it's the very definition of lazy.

We don't want to start too late, so instead of playing by the rules of all the other major tournaments we're going to shorten it because of TV.

The Copa pulled the same shite last year.

I'm watching the Panama/Costa Rica game and I can't figure out why. They are parking the turtle bus.

U.S. Soccer? @ussoccer
Take note! In both the #GoldCup2017 Quarter and Semifinals, matches tied after 90 minutes go straight to PKs.


Isn't this true of Copa América too?

I like the PK's after 90. Really amps up the pressure. Most exciting part of a knockout stage IMO. The Dutch had a couple at the World Cup, and that was almost as good as the entire game preceding.

Lmao anyone watching the pre-game?

Stu Holden just referenced the 2013 sunglasses gif and then put a pair of shades on Donovan.

Zardes creates chances out of nothing which the US desperately needs, but is not technically gifted. I don't get the hate, he is not Zusi.

I just want to point out that Pulisic is already tied for #31 on the US all-time goal list. Can move up 10 spots with 2 more goals.
