Reyna and McKennie haven't done much…

Decent enough half. Great pressure, generated some nice shots, got a goal on a FK.

Still shaky playing from the back, passing hasn't been the sharpest, our crosses into the box are mostly bad.

The front 6 is better than the back 5. It's a good to very good team going forward. It's sloppy playing out of the back.

When the subs come on look out because we have less than 0 depth.

Does less than zero depth = height?

I wonder how long Paqueta keeps playing for Brazil with his looming betting scandal?

The FA wants to ban him for life apparently, but I haven't really seen anything from FIFA on the matter

I'm sure the Brazilian FA would like for it all to go away. They would be in a bad spot.

So far I haven't seen that he accumulated any unusual yellows internationally. But he gets so many it wouldn't take much to get an extra one here or there.

Ugh. The advantage on Jedi's shirt being tugged didn't develop. Call the foul.

And then he gives a soft one at the other end. Considering he's swallowed his whistle the last 15 minutes that is very soft.

Great effort tonight.

The announcers acted like this was a historic performance. Maybe the outcome was, but I don't really feel like we matched them on the pitch...especially on the attack. A lot of quick counter attempts and then sinking back and weathering their continued attacks.

Good result, good response after the Colombia disaster...but I don't know. Am I wrong the think it was a little 'meh' still?

Good second half too. In fact, we looked much better under pressure in the second half than we did in the first. Both teams had multiple chances to win it. Good way to head into Copa.

Well played match. That 1-1 didn't come because we parked the bus.

I have now seen every victory for USA against Brazil. I've also seen every draw we've earned against Brazil. Just two, but I've seen them all.

Turner was amazing tonight. But the performance from Keller in the Gold Cup is still the greatest goalkeeping performance that I've ever seen.

Brazil played better tonight than they did against Mexico.

Jedi needs to dribble less.

Much better control from backline. Nobody panicked.

Midfield had great showing.

What an entertaining match.
Scally did really well. He had help a lot, but still looked competent against Vini Jr.
i think with 90 minutes of Adams the game looks different. Adams really plugs the middle on defense. Musah and Gio did a good job, then Johnny did as well, but they are better used elsewhere.
Jedi regressed in his crossing ability to like 5 years ago. He really stunk at that part tonight. I am sure it was tired legs from running up am back a million times.
I don't think we had 1 corner kick.
Turner, wow!
I really enjoy watching Vini Jr playing. So quick, so much touch and he is always smiling, like he is having his best day. Really easy to root for that guy.

Do we not have a CB with any speed?
I love Ream but dude has fallen off a shelf in terms of his play.


Hot takes that don't age well. He played phenomenally. .

Currently the only highlight video available here is the official USSF highlight video which managed to show exactly 1 of Brazil's 12 shots on goal (I ask even they would have been embarrassed to have a highlight video that didn't include a goal even if it was the opponent who had the audacity to score it), so hard for me to understand how well or not well the US played.

But that save by Allison on Pulisic in the 2nd half was sick. Maybe Pulisic could have put it closer to the corner but that was still an incredible save.

Pretty quiet post-game here.

I thought our two CBs played much better than they did Saturday. Scally too and he had the toughest assignment of the bunch. Jedi still doesn't look in great form. Hope he shakes that quickly.

Midfield was fine, but not nearly as lively as I've seen them in other good team performances. Wes looked out of sorts or uncomfortable to me. Gio and Musa were okay, but I can't wait for Adams to be able to provide more minutes.

The attacking line was our best group on the field I thought. Pepi didn't see much of the ball but he occupied defenders and opened up spaces for CP and Weah and pressured the Brazilians in possession well. We ran at the Brazilians all night and generated 7 shots on goal, which doesn't match what Brazil generated at the other end, but is still a lot for us vs a talented team.

All in all, it was a great rebound from Saturday and a good way to lead into Copa.

Old Man Ream got beat at least twice that lead to breakaway 1 on 1 attacks on goal. Turner came up big both times…
