Freaking Bama screwed us. I was anticipating turning the game off in frustration at halftime and going to bed early.

Hope we score early and often this evening because I don't have anything left in the tank to handle a stressful game.

Yeah my blood pressure doesn't need a lot of anxiety tonight, but between the US game and the Astros, I'm sure it will be up again

Nailed the game winning FG at almost exactly midnight out here. Couldn't go to sleep for another couple hours after that. Kids still woke me up at 6.

Anyone know if Dest is good to go today?

Dp

Sorry, triple post, fat fingers

Going to need Dest. No Robinson due to UK rules.

Also no Steffen, but that dude is never dislodging Turner.

Edit: also no McKennie due to hamstring issue.

All of a sudden, we have good goalkeeper depth again. It's early, but this Turner/Steffen duo might be the Friedel/Keller conundrum from the late 90s early 00s again. We had third string guys like Hahneman and Sommer that played entire careers in Europe just about and never got on the field for us (Horvath now maybe).

Yeah… I was wondering if anyone knew if Dest was healthy and good to go tonight. Had some muscle soreness after the Jamaica match.

So the game is streaming on Paramount+ and NBC Universo - and I use YoutubeTV, and the only streaming available is on Universo in Spanish. Can else with YoutubeTV/knowledge of the broadcasting rights confirm? I would rather watch our own, English broadcast but it's NBD. Per Google that sounds like the case, but I would appreciate a confirmation.

There isn't any English broadcast available for tonight's game.

Worked well for Jamaica match so let's reprise this

Today is 4 years to the day since the loss to Trinidad and Tobago.

**** **** up

Paramount +

Yea, sucks to have to sign up just for this game, but worth it to me.

Sunday Fútbol in Panamá.
3 points up for grabs. Let's do this.

I signed up for their premium service. I figured what the heck, I'm gonna cancel anyway. I thought I might keep it, I have Hulu and Netflix, but then I checked out some of Paramount + other programming, and it's all garbage. I didn't see a single thing that was interesting...

It doesn't look like a bad lineup though...

Yeah, it is. I'm a bit concerned about our vulnerability down the center of the defense. But I reserved the right to celebrate like made if we win 1-0 on a Zardes worldie.

Interesting, I expected changes, but not that many.
Turner, Zimmerman, Musah and Arriola are only starters from Jamaica match.

Zimmerman was a late add to the team and now is a starter in first 2 games.

I like the line up, good to use that depth to our advantage.

Here's the whole line up with subs:

Tonight's USMNT Starting XI at Panama: 1-Matt Turner, 3-Walker Zimmerman (capt.), 5-Shaq Moore, 6-Yunus Musah, 7-Paul Arriola, 9-Gyasi Zardes, 17-Sebastian Lletget, 18-Mark McKenzie, 20-Tim Weah, 21-George Bello, 23-Kellyn Acosta

Substitutes: 13-Sean Johnson, 2-Sergiño Dest, 4-Tyler Adams, 8-Gianluca Busio, 10-Cristian Roldan, 11-Brenden Aaronson, 12-Miles Robinson, 14-Luca de la Torre, 15-Chris Richards, 16-Ricardo Pepi, 19-Matthew Hoppe, 22-DeAndre Yedlin

We have a lot of fire power sitting on the bench...

Definitely. Trying to rest guys and also get needed results is one of the toughest parts of managing a team imo.

Agree, seems like a decent setup

I'm gonna guess that Hoppe gets subbed in around 65 minutes...

Win at home, tie on the road. Today is about managing minutes for MD 6 and trying to get a point.

Of all the streaming services, Paramount + is by far my least favorite. Terrible.

It's unbelievable, but they have done it.

Weah and Zardes and three up front?
Is this real life?

Man it's empty, are they on a Covid restriction for fans?
