The new footy thread

I get to watch today’s game between two mainly English speaking countries in Spanish! Way to negotiate TV rights CBS Sports!

The real Canadian convoy...

These guys are so lucky this game wasn’t yesterday. Dad said it felt -50 out. Probably exaggerating but he wasn’t drunk yet so likely pretty close.

Pitch appears to be in decent shape and as long as the wind doesn't whip up, it should be okay for a little footy.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Fuck yes

Larin!! What a start!

Pulisec is tasting a lot of turf thus far today.

I have under 40th minute before he's subbed off with an injury.

That was certainly worth a yellow card.

What a save

What a save

Borjan off the line. Fantastic save.

Haven't checked possession, but it's likely 75 - 25 States. One brilliant moment and a tremendous save and it's 1-nil good guys at the half.

Score definitely doesn't match the play of the first half. I still feel good about the US getting a draw at the very least out of this game.

 

[dash]

Just saw the possession stats are at 64 - 36 for the US. Seemed to be more than that, but aside from that one set piece, not much danger created by the States.

David has pretty good wheels. Not quite Davies wheels, but that was a nice burst.

 

[dash]

Oh man, that was a mighty thud. That ball must feel like a rock on this cold day.

 

[dash]

Damn, that should have been 2-nil. Heck of a save by the States keeper.

Oh man, that was a mighty thud. That ball must feel like a rock on this cold day.

i can still remember as a kid, feeling the sting of blocking a shot with your thigh on a cold november evening
immediate big red welt, with the pattern of the ball emerging later. fuck that hurt.

big reason i switched to hockey. Indoors and you got to wear pads. lol
