Not saying the goal was Steffens fault.

But Steffen has been very meh to disappointing this game.

At USA 5-1 over Panama

USA +13 GD... Costa Rica +3 GD

Costa Rica still needs to beat the USA by 6 goals on Wednesday to overtake the USA on the table

I'm sure the ref knows and wants to add on 8 minutes to help the cause.

So check my math on the FIFA rankings:

Next rankings come out March 31. L If we win on Wednesday and Mexico wins, they end up 8 and we are 1 point behind them in 9th. If we win and they don't, we'll be 8th. Italy will still be 6th so 8 will be pot 1 and 9 will be pot 2.

So Wednesday looks massive as well

I didn’t like the guys Greggg subbed off. We got worse as a result.

Great win! Forfeit Wednesday and take the 0-3 loss. Use the time to rest/recover/practice. Maybe Mexico even ends up in 4th on the table.

The two guys who need a break are Zimmerman and Jedi imo. They have played the most minutes.

I don’t love Bello but I suspect we will have something like this

Horvath/Johnson
Yedlin-Long-Miles-Bello
Adams
Busio-Acosta (or de la Torre)
Weah-Pepi-Gio

Thoughts?
