I BELIEVE THAT!
#USMNT lineup for #USAvTUR: Howard; Johnson, Cameron, Besler, Chandler; Zusi, Jones, Bradley, Davis; Altidore, Dempsey (c) #OneNationOneTeam
I'll post Turkey when I find it.
Hey Turkey!
Should be more free flowing than match 1.
Still not sure about Chandler on the left...he's a right footed player who plays RB for his club.
This is going to be a good exhibition game. They should be right on par with ghana in terms of how good they are, so it will be good practice.
Turkey has a far harder qualification process going through UEFA. If I was Turkey I'd consider moving into the AFC. They'd have walked into the tournament (well as much as any country can walk in).
Granted, Ghana DESTROYED Egypt and I though Egypt would actually win that matchup.
Oh don't get me wrong, I don't underestimate ghana, they are a good team. However, turkey is pretty good as well. I do agree that ghana is a little better, but they are still similar levels of competition and it will be a great exhibition game for us to play.
Bravo supporters!!
Nice national anthem. Those crazy soccer fans...
Best stream anyone?
This is what I have http://goatd.net/84365/watch-usa-vs-turkey
There are a few here
Anyone else think having collars on jerseys looks kinda stupid?
I don't find it any dumber than having those strings that some NHL teams have.
I also hate that Nike has changed the red and a blue for our jerseys this year. I feel like it should be illegal or something.
I hate both uniformz.
Use our Nation's true colors. I don't want Fire Red and Electric Blue.
Defenders looking up to the challenge so far.
They have covered well for some tunovers in the midfield. In general, the back line seems faster, sharper and more confident then I ever remember them.
Yeah, to my untrained eye, looks like we have the effort, talent and skill needed on the backline....but they have a lot of work to do in working together
That was a horrible first touch by Clint on that long ball. A better touch and its 1-0
Dempsey has to do better with these opportunities... nice hold up play by Altidore though
That turn combined with a nutmeg was ridiculous!
*For non-soccer afficinados a nutmeg is when you play the ball through the opponents legs and go around them. It's like the equivalent of an ankle breaking crossover.
...
The turkeys almost scored.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The ref is laughing at him!
Dont care if it counts or not, that's great set piece play... Altidore should have a goal right now.
Our defense is AWFUL in the middle...
Is this the first time this back four has started with one another? Regardless, very exciting game from both sides so far.
These runs from Turkey are carving up the back line.
...is a Communist.
Has the USMNT's defense every been good? I feel like for as long as I've been watching them (which hasn't been very long to be honest), commentators always seem surprised when the D gets carved up, yet it always seems to happen.
was pretty good!
Fabian Johnson! Beautiful!!
That was genius!
What a fucking pass and goal!
GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL
Great ball, goal, and movement.
