They're doing like Iran last cycle. Just dribble into the box and fall down.

Maybe sub 1 of pepi or Balogun off, bring on Reyna for.his ability to control the ball.
Contemplate someone like aaronson as well
Maybe scally or arfsten if dest or jedi is tired

I know they changed how accumulation works, but if Tyler gets a yellow against turkey, would he be suspended for knockout still?

They said it resets after group play and again at quarterfinals.

Good call.

I'd like to see Aaronson, because he can be a pest...we need a little spark on the ball right now.

Yes. View it in 3 game sets. If you get 2 yellows in 3 games, you are suspended

That's a stupid setup.

If the USA win this one, they pretty much have to sit Adams and Robinson for the next match.

Thats been the rule in World Cups for a long time. The change this year is wiping the slate clean after the group stage. Used to be only wiped clean after the QFs

I would expect a sub soon. Any good manager would adjust.

I like how we look. But it's always a bit on the edge because you just can sense that we don't have the overall quality to really strangle the life out of a game when we have the lead.

Probably best if we just go for a third goal

Berhalter is a good shout, I think we should make 2 subs though

Aussies are pressing hard, looking more desperate and a bit reckless.

That's why winning your first two group stage games by multiple goals is such a huge advantage. It gives you the freedom to do pretty much whatever you want in the final game.

I know that's barely out of the defensive third but that is basically SPA.

YELLOW CARDS

Single Yellow cards reset after group play and after the quarter finals.

If we can keep this goal differential, we are in amazing shape to win the group with any of the following:
- Turkiye loss/tie to Paraguay

If we keep this goal diff (implying we win), this is all it takes to win the group.

If Aussie loses or draws against Paraguay, Turkey beats Paraguay, and Turkey beats us, then we finish 2nd in the group to Turkey as head to head is first tiebreaker.

It's better than it was. But it still stupid.

Should be something like three consecutive matches with a caution. Two in two games shouldn't be equal to two in one game.
