Great strike Jones there is the equalizer, keep on these guys they are tired. Somebody get the winner now

Where is NightCrawler?

Bradley is garbage. I've never liked him. He turns the ball over way too much for a mid-fielder.

Please launch Bradley into the sun. He is an absolute detriment to the team. He follows up his awful game against Ghana by missing an easy tap-in and then turning the ball over at midfield in the 95th minute in this game. All he had to do was launch the ball downfield and the game was over.

Isn't he the son of the former US coach? I remember Bob Bradley being a horrible coach.

yes he is and has been pretty solid in his career, but last game he was bad and this one he missed chances and missed clearing the ball at the end of stoppage time today

Bradley has been the worst American on the pitch so far in the World Cup. Klinsmann would be wise to bench him going forward. His turnover and Cameron's lazy tacking back to help cost the US a guaranteed spot in the final 16. Basically a 2-2 loss today. Just unbelievable.

Yes Bradley has had some bad performance, but he's also put in a lot of work that's gone unnoticed. Those of you saying launch Bradley to the sun....


You obviously haven't seen this midfield much without him. It's garbage.

I wouldn't say launch him into the sun, but he's obviously been a problem spot and needs to get his shit together too

Actually I have seen the US midfield without him. Plenty of times. But bouts of talented play followed up by inconsistent play and awful gaffes is doing the US no favors. He's been the weakest link on the US side so far this World Cup.

I agree with Romeo on this one. Something that a lot of people overlook is that we wouldn't even be here without Bradley's efforts in qualifying for the World Cup, but he has sucked in the matches so far. Hope for a tie tomorrow with Germany. The road is much easier to the finals as the runner up from Group G.

U S A, U S A, U S A moving out of the group of death. Belgium next

 

[Nightcrawler]

Proved me wrong that is for sure. I thought they wouldn't even sniff the knockout round.

The US was very fortunate today. The Ghana goalkeeper batted a catchable ball down right into the middle of the 18 on Ronaldo's goal. Who knows what would've happened if Portugal didn't score that one. Ghana would have thrown everything at Portugal knowing they had to win that game.


Thank you for the terrible goalkeeping, and for our awesome goalkeeper, Tim Howard! I'll take it. Bring on Belguim.

Cameron paid the price for being lazy. Good message sent by Jurgen.

We need Jozy badly. Gonzlez did very well. Be curious to see who gets the start against Belgium.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Bradley messed up another good opportunity today, but all that matters is the team advancing.

Bradley with another performance that was less than inspiring. He did have some nice balls that almost lead to scoring opportunities, so maybe there's hope still. Jones looked great playing a more forward position. Maybe you switch he and Bradley's roles. We need Jozy so badly.

 

[RevSader]

USA is going to need better performances from here on out.

Absolutely, but Belgium is neither as strong as Portugal or Germany IMO. Belgium is probably the most beatable group winner out there. It will be interesting to see what JK comes up with and whether Jozy is available and utilized.
