We're unwilling to make the daring passes through midfield.. and incapable of finding a target at number 9. It's pathetic to this point.
We lost possession 29 times in our defensive 3rd in the first 30 minutes. Thats insanely bad
WTF Vines
Well that was bad
Lost possession 54 times in our half
I think we should stop passing the ball to the Japanese players.
Feels like we've completed more direct passes to their players rather than ours
MORRIS???
I hope we can beat Iran, but we're supposed to get points from Wales in November to get into the knock out round. Need to learn how to play soccer for that to happen. Central defenders who don't give the ball away. Midfielders who can check their shoulders, make turns, combine with teammates and break lines. I don't see it.
GB rolling with the strategy of seeing more players instead of letting the starting group try to work their way out of this funk. Interesting.
don't change tactics.. just change the players and hope for the best. bold strategy Greggg
That being said, Mackenzie already looks better than Long and Sargent looks good in his movement and touches so far.
should be a straight Red for #14
That should've been a red on that Japanese player.
zero attempt for the ball.. just a stomp on the back of dude's leg
more bad giveaways trying to build out
This ref is a clown
Lol Brendan gets a Yellow for that while the Japanese player got nothing earlier

LDLT, but yeah, it was a huge miss on the leg stomp.
The pitch looks like poop. So do we.
Only thing showing in the game is that Turner hasn't lost anything with his move to the Arsenal bench.
If this was 0-0 it would remind me of the Gold Cup last year, Turner keeping the US in the game to grab it late
Welp that was the chance
0-2
Terrible terrible terrible defense. Cannon got rinsed twice in the last few minutes
How does Cannon look lazy putting in a 45 minute shift... what a pathetic attempt.
My biggest regret is I have to work now and it will be hours before I get to enjoy the media aftermath from this
We'll be lucky to get 1 group point
Twellman just said this ends ESPN's 30 years of coverage of USMNT.
Where's coverage going again?

What an absolutely terrible performance by pretty much everyone. If we look anything like this in Nov., we'll be leaving with 3 losses.
Score could have been way worse than this if not for some decent saves from Turner.

At least Turner looked good.

Edit - sorry - Turner network, not Fox (which is the WC)
Not sure why everyone is coming for Ggg after this performance. McKennie looked dreadful, DLT was awful for most of the game. In addition to that we gave the ball away countless times. Cannon should be staying home after that performance. Overall a very very poor effort shown today. Won't be a fun WC come November if we show up like this.
