This game is ace

That’s it, make their defence think about things.

Frankie De Jing has done a nice job.

Oof. Let that be the game-changer please.

Really enjoyed this game tbh.

I guess they do.

Aaronson is a great player to be able to bring on at this time.

I agree and think he’s been solid so far, but that’s been against Wales, Iran and an anaemic England. This is the step up, and he’s clearly at his limit.

They’re just doing what they need to do. Will be harder against Australia in the next round.

Fucking urgh

Holy shit the US would be so good with a CB and a CF.

Great effort. Closely followed by…a shitty final ball

Oh fucking hell, the final ball again. It’s a bit like watching a kids team when it gets in the final third.

Have the US not got a big, physical forward they can just stick up there as a nuisance?

Thought you meant this game - yeah, I haven’t got to see them much so far.

The goal was lush. They are playing the Americans the way they should, letting them come on and commit and then hitting them fast. Would be more boring if they were just knocking it around.

Fuck me, the final ball is awful.

The Dutch team seems so much bigger than the Americans

Watch the Dutch. They let him have the ball, close down his options and wait for him to bring it forward. It seems entirely deliberate.

They’re fine. Not sure what you’re seeing tbh.

It’s so promising in patches, but the final ball is clueless and/or there are no options. If the US can keep this to 1-0 at half time though there’s definitely a chance. Their defence scares me shitless though

Love the US pressing game, although their defence is just a goal or three waiting to happen.

Wow was sure that was offside in real time. Actually a really good save I think, although he could have buried it.

They were always my Dad’s favourite team for precisely this reason.
