on Weston's goal did it look like to anyone else that he was winding up for a heavier shot to fool Ochoa and then deftly place it in the far netting?

Yeah, I think he scuffed it.
Can someone explain how 2 of our players get a yellow when the Mexican tried to poke our players eyes out?
Will they say anything about the officiating?

Steffan deserved one, you can't run half the pitch just to yell at the ref and not get anything
Center was too close to the fray to see the eye rake. His closest AR was behind it and the far side AR didn't tell him anything about it I guess. No VAR, so really no recourse.

Unfortunately true, though it's always fun to see a guy who's like twice the size of everyone else on the field step into the fray.gougler08 said:Kevin the 3-legged dog said:

Just about the entire lineup from last night does play in Europe, I don't think anyone who started in is MLS outside Pepi (who's off to Europe by January), Zimmerman, and Miles Robinson.Max Power said:
I'd love it if more of our guys were playing in Europe, the experience that players like Pulisic and McKennie are getting over there is invaluable.
A few on our bench do (of those that came in Acosta off the top of my head) but we have far more younger players in Europe (and playing for good clubs) than ever before.
Miles Robinson too.
CONCACAF is perfectly capable of watching replays. We don't need a game alteration. We need discipline against that barbarianism.jeffk said:

I don't know enough to know what I'm talking about, but Pepi seems very upright and stiff out there. He kind of runs like Frankenstein.
Haha, checked the lineup and added him before I saw thisjeffk said:

Fine fine I'll stop my "I corrected someone on the internet" dance.

Their keeper was there.
Not right in the refs face though? Can't remember it that well
I don't even know if he cautioned the players involved in that sequence, he was just waving the card around.

Well if he doesn't miss the eye gouge he's not getting yelled at. But a yellow for dissent when Mexico dissenter after every call is ridiculous.
Best you're going to get with Concacaf I guess.
It will never, ever, ever get old. Beating Mexico in Soccer rivals the Aggies winning in football for me.oragator said:
Never gets old beating Mexico. Joyful times.
Actually, USMNT winning a big match especially beating Mexico might be my #1 joyful sports moment.

Agreed. And what was even more special is we dominated.
The speed and talent disparity between the US and Mejico was shocking to me
Mejico looked like rheybhad Alexi lalas types out there

Our potential is no longer just potential. We've passed Mexico and Canada is pretty close to it too. ]
We finally have athletic soccer players rather than athletes playing soccer. It's taken a very long time.
US beat mexico (again) with basically its U23 team

And soccer players that aren't super athletic.
Really love their goalie talking sh^t and we've beat them 3 times in a row.
That was beautiful last night. Dos a cero beetches.

Yep even after the ass kickings they refuse to believe we've passed them.
It's glorious.
Have they fired their coach yet?

That's astounding.
Tons of homegrown talent that has turned into.... better than Houston or Austin at the bottom of the West. I love my FC Dallas, but it's been a gut wrenching year. It was fun to see Pepi while he was here.
I was fortunate to be at the game last night. Best game and probably best sporting event that I've ever attended.
The crowd was absolutely electric. It was incredible.

It's amazing what can happen when you select your best players.
Must have killed you to watch two MLS center backs shut them down
Lol no! They were both brilliant.

I'm perfectly fine with MLS center backs. It's a position that doesn't require nearly as much skill with the ball compared to the others. Aka the MLS.
