They're gonna press our backline hard, it seems. Will be good to see how they handle it.

Feels like thats gonna turn into a PK, nm the Canadian player got a nice tug on Zimmerman so not sure

That was dumb by Zimmerman

After watching the replay, I agree with what the expert said. If they review it, the PK doesnt happen if the foul is called on the Canadian player first

Hopefully Zimmerman just landed on the ball and got his breath knocked out, and not seriously hurt.

Nah, Zimmerman was running off balance, almost out of control, that would have been one hell of a dive if it was on purpose...

I thought pines did not look very good in his time against Martinique. Will be interesting to see how he does.

Canada going down super easy so far

Not sure how clean that tackle actually looked.

Haha, Berhalter!

Anyone notice Berhalter? The ball was kicked out by us , it bounces to Gregg, he catches it the Canadian player runs over and instead of tossing him the ball, or handing it to him, Gregg just drops it on the ground in front of the player to pick up.

I love it, once a player always a player...

Pretty good attack there. Zardes was close with that header.

Dike needed to make some actual runs on those crosses. Just kind of drifted

Berhalter looks like the healthier version of Mike Judge.

Does Canada think we're playing shirts vs. skins?

Yeah and it's a shame because the superb buildup on the wings deserved an assist.

Not sure who was supposed to be loitering at the back door, but Zardes flick just waiting for American to get an easy goal.

I'm not sure the strategy of just falling over anytime you get near Dike is going to work for Canada's defense

If you watch Sands play, he's not the most athletically gifted playe, but he does a lot of moving the defense around with his eyes and his body positioning. Kind of like the top quarterbacks do, he basically gets them wrong-footed or shifted out of position and then makes the past he intended to make all along

Zardes is going to get an assist or goal before the half. He is running circles around Canadians.

I know I've seen Dike hit some great goals from range, but his footwork so far doesn't seem at the same level of his aerial play. Anyone else noticing that, or am I seeing things.
Which I guess you don't have to have great technique on the ball to be a good forward

James Sands has really impressed me in that deep cleanup midfielder role. Quick to win the first and second ball and good distribution.

This sorry-ass ref is playing politics instead of reffing the dang game...

Dike is moping around, but that was textbook slide tackle from Canada.

Dike should have let the first guy take him out

I agree, Sands has really impressed me the last 2 games.

He definitely is lacking polish when it comes to footwork. Physically he's imposing as hell.

Beautiful tackle by the Canada defender on that one.
