gobills404 Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 No complaints about the penalty, but the ref is blowing his whistle EVERY SINGLE TIME a Welsh player goes to the ground no matter what Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 I hate how the keep time in soccer. Oh look, another Wales injury. Stoppage time is mostly stoppage here. Quote
LeGOATski Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 Thebref stops the game twice for Wales and not the US... Quote
Big Turk Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Not a good result. US dominated the first half and took a 1-0 lead then the 2nd half they played on their heels too much and when they had outnumbered counterattacks instead of pressing the pace they tried to slow it down for an unknown reason which usually led to no real scoring chance or a ball into the box that got cleared out.

GoBills808 Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 McKinnie was bad Aaronson and Morris as subs were awful Lost the thread after halftime and it may cost them advancing Quote
GoBills808 Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 Not outplayed or out talented but out managed Welsh were unlucky to be down a goal at half knowing US had run themselves out, and they would have ended up winners if that game goes on any longer Poorly managed and substituted imo Credit to Wales manager for having a better plan Quote

Tyler Adams was the star of the game for the US tho...dude was Milano like. Everywhere doing everything. Did not like how disjointed the US looked on counterattacks where they kept slowing it down instead of pressing the attack when they had the numbers advantage. Quote
gobills404 Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 Pulisic, Robinson, Adams, and Ream all had really strong games. Musah, McKennie, and Sargent might as well have been invisible out there. Absolutely zero threatening play up the middle while they were out there. Quote

They were being dominated in the first half. Actually lucky they weren't down by 2 when Sargent hit the post on his header. Edited November 21, 2022 by Big Turk 1 Quote

Yeah I dont know how much of a better plan it was where if it wasnt for a really dumb challenge on Bale in the box, the US walks out winners Quote
Jauronimo Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 I love everyone's shift in vernacular when discussing soccer. You guys on Sunday: "That was a ***** pass. Who the f#$% was that even too? QB better get his head out of his ass!" Today: "A right poor touch on the volley from mid spoils another quality try, chaps. The American side would be well to tighten their lines henceforth." 2 Quote

Soccer was my first love from the age of 5 when I started playing and played close to 25 years at a fairly high level...don't follow it as close as the NFL but I still watch games when I can. Quote

I'm not doubting anyone's love or appreciation of the game or their authenticity. I get it that other sports have their own vocabulary and in discussing those sports its a natural thing to do. Its just funny to me that in doing so we use our posh voices. Especially, since soccer fans as a group are notoriously boorish, violent, hooligans. Edited November 21, 2022 by Jauronimo Quote

It is pretty hilarious listening to the English announcers and hearing their terms for things... And also Ted Lasso is awesome! Quote
