It's pretty crazy that you could have 6 points from a group and still get eliminated. I think most of us figured we'd get 6 (with a loss to Uruguay) and advance before the tourney started.



That's what was so enraging about the sequence of the Weah red, scoring a goal and then giving up one in quick succession.

If we beat Panama, which we would have if not for having to play 10v11 for 74 minutes, today would be a dead rubber match because both us and Uruguay would be through with 6 points. Instead, we now need to win in our toughest match of the group and get help just to advance.

I just realized Sir Winston beat you to the punch in starting the match thread

That's why the title names are normal.

Disappointed in the lack of "mate" in the title

I hope we see the absolute best version of the USMNT tonight.


Same. Cause there's no guarantee that Berhalter loses his job if we fail to make it out of group. I don't think there's a silver lining here.

This is all because we were too shitty to beat Panama

If Weah doesn’t lose his head fifteen minutes in then we win that game, everyone knows it.

Panama will be without their best player, so at least we’ve got that going for us.

Even with Bolivia being terrible, CONCACAF teams don't just shite out 3 goals with regularity. I think that's a tough ask but obviously not impossible given Panama know they need to score a lot.

I also believe that we can lose 0-5 tonight and Gregggg will still have this job. Could be the worst of all scenarios.

I agree with the top and Wynalda agrees with the bottom.

Just hope that he has them playing aggressive and not sitting in our third after a score. They need to attack relentlessly all night and get Pepi over what has been ailing him.

We also advance in the event that both Panama and U.S. draw or lose.

It'd be lowkey hilarious if Gregg finally gets his signature non-Mexico win tonight, only to get fired because we still didn't advance out of our group in a tournament we're hosting.

Broski not starting the match thread has me all kinds of shook


Maybe it’s just the kinda change USMNT is looking for

Hoping we either look amazing and win 4-1 or get arse blasted and lose 7-0

Win: Advance to the next stage

Lose: Gregg is finally gone

Either way I’m good

Neither may be this cut and dry unfortunately.
