Was that a bad enough call on that goal that it's going to be a big story after the game??
-
Play for a tie or try to keep the pressure on? I think we have to play for a tie and hope england beats Slovenia and we beat Algeria. Holy [expletive] this is awesome.
-
ORGASM!!
-
dammit...good attempt
-
OK when you've handed out like 4 yellow cards to the same team in like the last 10 minutes, doesn't that tell you something about how the other side is playing? The refs don't want to kick anyone out of the match.
-
yep
-
Those cheap ass mother [expletive]. They really deserve a red as its pretty obvious they have no intention of going for the ball half the time.
-
If that was anywhere but exactly right at the keeper at chest level, that's the equalizer. Fudge
-
SO CLOSE DAMMIT
-
These stupid americans don't know how to play football. How did they make such a great touch pass, those idiots must have used their hands. I must give out yellows.
-
good passing for USA. Getting chances....need to get SOG though. Every time we've done that we've gotten success so far. Doesn't have to be the prettiest goal ever.
-
Or we could draw this, and then have England beat Slovakia like they should while the USA beats Algeria by 2 goals. Either way that would involve at least 4 goals from a team that has only had one complete gift of a goal in 135 minutes so far.
-
Amazing. It's hard to get a better draw than the one we got. Then we managed to get a point out of by far the only real tough team in the group. And we still aren't going to advance. At this rate, we'll lose to Algeria too.
-
Maybe we'll get to the knockout round in 2014. Embarrassing
-
Knocked out in the group stage again. FU
-
At least we are getting some really good pressure on them. Hypothetically if we keep that up we should score. But the fact that we haven't scored yet on some great chances hurts my heart.
-
SO CLOSE
-
It's hard watching this with no sound. Why did Findley get a yellow on that corner??
-
So if we lose this game, we have to hope that England either flatout loses one of their last 2 games and the USA has a better goal dif., or ties each of its last 2 games. Oof.
-
I guess we are attacking a little bit better since the goal.
-
you can pass the ball past the last defender, but that defender has to be even with the recepient of the pass when the passer initiates the pass. If the recepient sprints away from the defender after the pass is kicked and receives it, he can easily find himself on a breakaway. Also it doesn't matter where the defender is...if the recepient is in the middle of the field, and the only defender between him and the goalie is up at the top of the field and nowhere near the recepient, it's still onsides.

They are the Randy Wells of the soccer world.
-
It's not difficult. Takes a bit of practice to be able to spot it though. When the pass is made, there has to be a defender in front or even with (i believe) the recepient of the pass. It doesn't matter if the recepient is 30 yards ahead of the defender when he gets it, it only matters where he is when the pass is made.
-
We're in trouble...wtf
-
I'm glad lt. Daniels didn't book him Wait he didn't even get a yellow? I am only half watching at this second because of work. I saw the play but didn't see the result.
