    The USMNT is the kindest, warmest, bravest, most wonderful group of human beings I've ever known in my life.

        If the uswnt wants to have the same pay structure as the men, where they don't get salaries and just get appearance fees, their union is free to negotiate for it. Until then, you're comparing apples to oranges.

            Maybe they thought they’d have a speed advantage? *shrug*

              But the point is just using immigrants we should probably have a decent team. Which is why I recommend we do.

              Post-Dump they'll even have their own favelas in TX and CA. That's how we should be making our soccer players: grinding, inhuman poverty. That's how Brazil does it.

                I missed the second half, but if they recreate their first half performance against T&T and Panama it will be a short tournament.

                      England v Japan.

                      Two of the best women’s teams in the world, at the World Cup, and the stadium looks like New England v Columbus...

                        Scotland vs Argentina is the match of the tournament. Scotland was up 3-0, Argentina comes back to make it 3-2. Then in the 88th there was a tackle in the box that was later reviewed and awarded a penalty. PK is finally taken in the 91st, stopped, then another VAR for the keeper being off the line. Second shot goes in, now it’s 3-3 in the 94th, except 4 minutes of stoppage time were added.

                        Just a minute later the official blows her whistle to end the game even though there had only been about two minutes of actual play in the previous ten minutes. Everyone is so confused that even Argentina is yelling at her wondering what’s going on.

                          I've never understood the failure to handle stoppage time with **** happens around/after the announcement of how much is left.

                          Earlier this year MNUFC had a game where they were down by 1, announced stoppage time is minimum of 3 minutes, after the announcement the other team gets called for 2 yellows for delay of game. yet ultimately the ref blows his whistle at 3:30 minutes of stoppage time...***

                              Watching Canada v Mexico I feel like this is one of those matchups that will go into halftime 0-0 but end up like 3, 4, 5-0 Mexico.
