    US gets all but hurt if u disrespect the flag by kneeling and sht proceeds to modify Iran's flag.

    Disrespectful regardless of the intention

    It was just dumb and unnecessary. Why put the team in a position to have to answer for it so close to the match? Wasn’t going to do anything other than piss off the Iranians.

    The world Cup Late Night Wrap up team with Ocho has been surprisingly entertaining. The girl host doesn't let them just throw out a bs take. she asks them why they said it. Like the vibe.

    It's an absolute imperative that the USMNT get the first and hopefully early goal. Iran is going to do their best to keep all 11 behind the ball as a tie is all they need. An early goal forces them out of the shell and to chase the game...which should open things up for the US to get another.

    I know he won't do it, but I think the best 11 puts Weah at the 9 and opens a spot for Aaronson to start. Reyna has to be used earlier, depending on how the flow of the match is going. I'd even start him and have Aaronson prepped as the change of pace guy...wreaking havoc fresh in the 2nd half.

    I'm not super confident. It just feels like Berhalter is going to get this wrong and it's going to be tied way too late in to the match. Without that clear goal scorer, the later this goes as a draw or, g-d forbid, being down, I'm just not sure we have what's needed to change the game. Damn I hope I'm wrong and we come out with energy and push the issue early and often.

    Iran just needs a tie. Turtle up and they win. I don't think USA has the offense capability to overcome that.

    I keep hearing Christian pulsic being hyped up hut we are really missing a striker to reliably get the ball into da net

    You can't score 1 goal out of 2 games and miraculously expect great things out of the Offense.

    They were running a basketball weave on that fast break. And that seemed like a mistake. Too many touches.
