Point on the road is fine
A point on the road against Panama and Honduras last WCQ screwed us.
The guy that said this game is CONCACAF 101 is on point.
Losing to T&T and the whole concacaf colluding cost us the WC.
Agreed about T&T - can you expand about CONCACAF collusion? I've never actually heard this one before.
I only watched the last 20 mins of this game and just have to say I do see more energy in this team than the last world cup roster.
He's probably referring to how multiple results had to happen to knock us out of the World Cup. Multiple different games hit the exact shorelines they had to for us to miss out, including a goal that was clearly punched over the line by Panama I believe.
Yea I do remember that. That was some BS - I never thought it was conspiratorial at the time and I didn't want the US team to play victim. They could've avoided this.
Anyway, not worth discussing anymore but I just disagree with settling for a tie with teams like Jamaica, El Salvador, Honduras unless the rest between games suck, the fields suck, etc. USA was pressuring a lot at the front but couldn't get it exactly right to convert it to a goal.
