Nice place to watch the game. Hopefully it will bring good vibes for today.

Have a good day gents. Thankfully overserved myself last night so have no urge to get drunk before noon today. Going to a decently sized watch party with some of my old soccer group so that should be fun. Quite anxious.

Feel this is both a good and bad matchup for us. LVG teams often lack the incisiveness that causes the us trouble. But they will also be difficult to press, and that’s where we’ve looked the most dangerous.

LFG!
In a hotel room in Sacramento, right across the square from where the Kings play. It's gonna rain all day and then hopefully clear up in time for the wife's marathon tomorrow. Should be a glorious day of watching sports from a hotel bed..

Yup. Just got off a WhatsApp call with my son who’s heading into downtown Heidelberg to watch.

(Poor kid had to go to sleep with USC up 17-3 last night.)
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

Anyone else watching the first half on their phone with their earbuds in, while they work, and the big tv on closed captioning, because the Mrs. is on a zoom call with a medium and she doesn't want to give her any tips? No? Just me? Ok.

I've really enjoyed Robinson in this WC. His skills really suit his role.

Both goals of similar crosses. Whenever the US try that type of pass, it feels like a blind pass hoping to get through to someone, and it’s to the wrong spot. Dutch making perfect passes

We should be forcing the old dude to stop Weah/Dest all day.

Zimmerman sucks with the ball at his feet and it is killing us in a game where the CBs need to start the offense.

Ferreira, as I've been saying for over 2 years, is not good enough for this level.

Reyna and Aaronsen are better options and need to be on the field.

We are way to static/passive once we have possession. Pick up the intensity going forward.

Figure it out GGG.
