Rule Number 32 said:

Still zero shots in the 2nd half right? We've been playing better and it has amounted to nothing


No runs, no risk taking.

We have to start shooting and taking some risks. Create some chaos. We can cycle the ball around for the next 25 minutes and we will lose even if we control the ball.

We are going to have to start taking some chances and quit passing backwards.

Adams has been guilty of this too many times. He's in a pocket. Sling one in there or take on a defender. He just keeps lollygagging around.

They just need to score one and then one more after that. Then you just score one or two more and beat them in OT.


I dig this plan

Rule Number 32 said:

Our first touch is freaking awful

One of the first things I noticed was the touch of European players was night and day different than Americans.

It's gotten better over the years but there is still a gap.

Agree. Ream taking a dive in the box on a 50/50 ball vs a pencil neck kid. Embarrassing!

Can we put Roldan and the 3rd string keeper in? That way everyone gets to play.

This was THE generation and collection of players to get the QF or SF. Much of the team play for big clubs of for mid clubs in big leagues, as starters.

We have never had more technical ability and we have the right coach. 1st and 3rd goals were huge mental mistakes.

We were pressing and had the run of play to tie it at 2-2 until the Looney Tunes 3rd goal.

I hope Pochettino stays for the next GC and WC cycle. He is the real deal.

MUCH of this team will be in their prime and experienced prime in 4 years and would expect to be better.

That is not to excuse this s*** show today. Just awful.

All three goals conceded were such terrible mistakes


I still don't think Belgium is that good. They were gifted the last game, and they've been gifted this game.

As a casual, our goalie set back us soccer 20 years. That was such a bad look when you're trying to sell.

Belgium didn't even play well in this game. Just a flat, sad performance.

Lol, why is our goalie still in the game?

He single handedly took us out of this one.

I guess 20 year setback is now the viral talking point on this thread for the program.

20 years. A bit much.

We've had more success going up our right side. We seem to force things up the left side.

This game feels like when the West Canaan Coyotes spent the previous night at the strip club.

Been a fun tourney. Good showing, minus tonight. Difficult to win when your "stars" don't contribute. Cheers to '30.
