Tillman with a very savvy play.

Feels like one of those years were the B team strolls in and gets steamrolled by Mexico in the Final. So hopefully Honduras helps us out tonight

So do I brave trying to go to the game in Houston or is the risk of getting piss dumped on by a Mexican fan too high?

Maybe the ugliest win I've ever seen.
Glad they found a way, buy bunkering after 20 minutes and giving the run of play to their opponent, trying to play out of the back when it clearly wasn't working, not being able to make the simple plays, not matching Guatemala's intensity, but like I said they won. But Mexico will smoke the team that played tonight.

Do it. I've been to several USA v Mexico matches and never had an issue. Have seen nachos fly from a 2nd deck onto fans though

Great first 30 minutes.

Stupid finish.

But this is why they say a 2 goal lead is the hardest to protect. Teams have a tendency to relax

Back line still too inconsistent. Also not sure risking the red card with all of the delays so late in the game pass the risk/reward litmus.

I'm going with my sons. Been to some before. Sons will never forget the decibel level and the volume of beers thrown into the air dousing them when Mexico scores

That'll be fun.

Which stadium is it in?

This Mexico squad has struggled to finish in this tournament, but they have looked head and shoulders the most technical and tactical team in it. Their defense has been solid and improving and they calmly control possession with smart touches and passing. I think it could be ugly for USA at NRG, but you never know what can happen if you keep it tight.

Asking for a friend.

Get club level (300's on the sidelines only).

Less pleb's in that section.

Godspeed

Not sure I can justify the price tag to take the 6yo, might watch this one from home. NRG is going to feel like we are a mile from the field in the nosebleeds.

Hey guey!


Might be slightly tame with it being on Sunday.

Had it been at Saturday….NRG would be full ******.

IWIWT

Yeah the price tag for what amounts to two B teams seems outrageous to me. Maybe they'll come down by Saturday

A lot to like the first 25-30 minutes, we mostly covered during that part of the game.

I wanted Aaronson to take that next step, but he's just maybe going to be an ok player. Which is fine, but je came on and did nothing of not he's just out there to run a lot, and not even really that effectively.

Agyemang will have to make and insane jump to ever be more than C team as a starting option, but depending on the strikers ahead of him (in my mind, who knows what Poch thinks) you might keep him on to sub in late in the game to go route 1.

Tillman was pretty invisible most of this game, not sure why he was so passive this game. Might have just been tired. (Not to imply he was bad, because when he did show back up he was playing well. Just thought he wasn't getting on the ball much)
Tolkin is also not very good, our defensive options for subs this tournament are tough.

The knock on Turner is that he is bad with his feet. Freese looks much worse. Dude is slow with his decisions and gives the ball to a bad choice. To his credit, he doesn't give it away. So far anyway. But, he is just not up to world cup speed. He would be better suited just kicking it long.
