USA vs MEXICO

[boltfan72]

World Cup Qualifying in Columbus:

2001: USA 2, Mexico 0
2005: USA 2, Mexico 0
2009: USA 2, Mexico 0

See the trend? After the 2011 Gold Cup everyone was claiming Mexican dominance for years to come. Now if they lose tonight their best case scenario will likely be a playoff against New Zealand to qualify, assuming they can get past Panama at Azteca, which is no guarantee.

Will be sweet to qualify tonight by beating Mexico. They can watch us celebrate while wondering if they can get past Panama and New Zealand.

And look at this scenario:

Assume Panama loses at Honduras and USA beats Mexico.
Assume Panama does what every other team in the region has done and gets a point at Azteca. They go into the last game 1 point behind Mexico.

Last game - Mexico at Costa Rica, best case a point for El Tri. Puts them 2 up on Panama.
Last game - USA at Panama, Mexico needs help from the USA to keep their WC dream alive. The US can eliminate their rival by losing a meaningless game and laugh all the way to Brazil.

Beckerman is getting the start in MF alongside jones. Looking forward to no play through the middle. Why is this guy even in the roster? Corona better get some fucking minutes.

 

[romeo212000]

I'm just not inspired by this lineup at all.

 

[Brasky]

LET'S GO

 

[romeo212000]

Not much good in te first 10 minutes.

 

[romeo212000]

I'm not really impressed with bedoya.

 

[bksballer89]

Not a lot of good chances for us

 

[romeo212000]

Yeah bedoya sucks.

 

[bksballer89]

finally had our first good chance

 

[romeo212000]

Get bedoya off the pitch. Mexico is gaining in confidence.

Bedoya sucks and Beckerman brings nothing to the table, I just don't get why he's so well liked by US Soccer? He brings no imagination or creativity to the game and always looks like he's rushed/nervous. Tim Howard pulling saves out of his ass helps.

Offensively we just look stale, not a whole lot going on.

The link up between Johnson and deuce has really been the only offensive bright spot.

 

[romeo212000]

POW!!!

 

[RegentDenali]

GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL!!!!!

Eddie Johnson. Awesome.

Let's just put the urine bombers away for good tonight and get that WC bid locked up!

 

[romeo212000]

Better attacking so far.

 

[romeo212000]

Btw, now is the time you bring Beckerman on.

 

[gobigred]

Landon Donovan!
