The Official FIFA World Cup 2022 Megathread

[Del Woppio]

USA! USA! USA!

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Go go go US of A...

 

[Alan]

Don’t give me hope you bastards

 

[Del Woppio]

How the fuck did that go in

 

[Alan]

THEY ARE TRYING TO GIVE IT TO US FUCKING TAKE IT

 

[Alan]

Shocking again.

 

[jd1981]

Sorry that is atrocious defending

 

[Del Woppio]

I don't think you'll see defending that bad all tournament. It's not like it was a quick counter, just lazy, lazy tracking

 

[Alan]

Wasn’t even lazy, Robinson and Ream were both completely focused on the same guy.

 

[Del Woppio]

Only seen one replay but it looked like 3 on 3 in the box, then he just sauntered down the right and nobody saw/ran with him

 

[jd1981]

It was Robindons man never looked over his shoulder. Dutch will be disposed of by Argentina comfortably.

 

[Alan]

Just disappointing because we’ve not defended so poorly in a long while.

I don't see that at all. The Dutch are solid, dependable and a good counter attacking unit.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Alan can put away his foam finger until 2026 now..

 

[Alan]

And now, most Americans can go back to ignoring everything about soccer. Worse, the quality of defending on display may have actively pushed people away from watching again.

It sucks.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Fuck those Americans. Wim yer fwends now Alan... Go Wolverhampton

I doubt it, you'll have world cup build up next time.

 

[Alan]

We’ll see. People are stubborn.

USA played some nice football but lacking at both ends. The first one is just a good goal but the second is dreadful defending and the third is sub-Doherty stuff from Robinson. When they got good chances they wasted them and only scored with a fluke from the Nouble-style lump they brought on.

A base to work on but short where it matters for now.

Their 3 young midfield players are all very good and give them something to build on. Musah and McKennie are both good now and with great potential to improve.
