Figured I'd start an official thread for the tourney as it kicks off next week in Costa Rica. Pretty important as it's also our U-20 WC qualifier and our USMNT youth teams have struggled to make tournaments the last several cycles.

Here's the US group schedule (all on Univision) :

Panama at 4 p.m. ET, 2/18
Haiti at 5:30 p.m. ET, 2/21

Yeah, Jonathan Klinsmann is a natural striker but from an early age his dad forced him to play goalkeeper because, well... that's just the way Klinsmanns do things.

Lost to a 10 man Panama team today 1-0. Didn't get to watch but it sounded like we just got flat out-played.

From what I read somewhere else, he wasn't able to get many of our top players at that level into camp for this...

Looking forward to losing to Costa Rica in the 2nd group stage thereby missing out on another major youth tournament.

Looks like all we gotta do is beat El Salvador, assuming Mexico beats them

US vs. Mexico on right now...

The young ones beat Mexico 1-0. First time in 31 years? Is that accurate?
TheMasterplan

US beat Mexico!

All US has to do is draw ES and they are in. If ES gets a result against Mexico, then it won't even matter.

Mexico up 3-0 25 minutes in. Looks like we'll need that point against El Salvador.

If we do lose to ES, I'm guessing the 1st tie breaker is GD since all 3 will be tied on 3 points and 1-0-1 in the group? If so, then if Mexico is going to win then I hope they win by a ton of goals.

Mexico won 6-1. Win or draw vs ES & US faces Honduras for the title.

Big game tonight, 6:30 pm on one of the Univision stations.

US needs to win or tie to win the group. If the win, tie or lose by 2 or less they qualify for the U-20 World Cup.

El Salvador appears to be really trying to counter against us. We need to make sure we aren't just playing for a tie.

El Salvador also looks to be wanting to dirty the game up

Missed yell card there

1-0,. nice combo play right up the gut.

Referee calls as foul on us when the other player clearly just pulled his hammy..
