Dos a Cero!

Spanglish.

When I checked it this was surprisingly close. 

Not sure if the question is dispiriting or fascinating.

I will take US Wins World Cup for $200 Alex

I know nothing about soccer, let alone the state of US soccer vs the world - other than that it generally sucks (the state of soccer, not the game itself).  But this question doesn't seem fair.  I mean, both can be false, right?

I assume the people who voted world cup are goofing on the lions and not serious. 

I am not a Lions fan, maybe that makes me less pessimistic about their future, but it is not to see a team lousy for several decades become dominant for a decade. I would not be shocked if the Lions won the superbowl in ten years, in that span USA soccer gets only two cracks at winning world cup. I'd say better bet would be who wins first Lions superbowl or England world cup. 

There was no point in trying to build out of the back when we were winning all of the first and second headers.

It was infuriating in the first half to watch us try, only for there to be a miscommunication or a heavy touch or someone just losing the ball.

But then Steffen puts one a half field, we come down with it, one pass, two pass, and we're in.

Same with the corners.  We are winning headers and we keep hitting the corners and free kicks short or getting cute.

No, just put it on the back post and let someone fly in and head the ball into the next.  Which is eventually what happened.  If that's not Weah, that pass is on the ground to Pulisic.

Like Harbaugh says, there's more than one way to attack...let's go through the air.

Don't even have Gio Reyna out there and it looks like this. Assuming Pepi continues to blossom into a top quality striker, the options up front are really exciting. 

Second half performance looked like a different team. So happy.

I hate Mexico as an opponent more than OSU.  To win three times against our greatest rival in a calendar year brings me GREAT joy!!!

I turned on the game about 20 minutes in.  The rest of the first half looked pretty good from a US perspective.  (In fact, I'm not even sure Mexico had a corner kick the entire time from then out.)  Then I saw the halftime commentators talking about how Mexico had really looked good in the first half.  OK, so they showed some highlights of some nice saves by Steffen, which must have happened before 20 minutes, but.....otherwise it didn't seem like they were talking about the same game.

I can't even name the Mexican LB, but I read before the game that Tajon Buchanon abused him with his athleticism when Canada and Mexico played so the easy strategy for Berhalter was to play Weah on the RW and let him work.  Weah was great on the attack and helped out with Chucy Lozano on defense.  I keep saying we should move Reyna back to midfield and let Weah romp on the RW, and here's Exhibit A for how well that could work.

Muchas gracias!
