I thought he was looking great in the earlier games, like any sport you can't win if you don't score.They also need a more aggressive goal keeper. He can't just stand flat footed on the goal line.

Agree, but the wind was taken out of our sails on the third goal. He didn't even move.I thought he was looking great in the earlier games, like any sport you can't win if you don't score.
Exactly . Mark the man in the box .On that last goal the goalie was screaming at the defense to cover that cross.
I will agree with that . Could have executed fundamentals better is where my frustration comes from .USA soccer has a lot to look forward to. The youngest team that made it to the round of 16, second youngest team in the WC, my impression is all positive.
I'll give them the inexperienced excuse because it's basically their first time playing on big stage in front of the world, but they've all played in big games before. I hope they grow from this.My feeling is that our inexperience was our biggest issue. Had the players been better able to manage the match, we could have had a better result.

At times it seemed like they were either lost, afraid of making a play, or trying to be to cute by making the extra pass when it wasn't needed.I will agree with that . Could have executed fundamentals better is where my frustration comes from .
I feel the same way about the NBA.Sorry Chris, but soccer bores the hell out of me, and I can't stand the World Cup--they'd have to pay me big time to watch a game.

There was no soccer back when we were kids Gary. When you got to high school you put on some pads and learned how to hit!Sorry Chris, but soccer bores the hell out of me, and I can't stand the World Cup--they'd have to pay me big time to watch a game.

No youth soccer when I was growing up. It started in high school, and our team was basically made up of hockey players getting in shape for hockey season. God it was ugly but fun. Not many teams wanted to play against us.There was no soccer back when we were kids Gary. When you got to high school you put on some pads and learned how to hit!
Did you play with the Hanson brothers ? Lol .Not many teams wanted to play against us.
LOL I think we may have been the inspiration for the movie. We found out early on that what's legal in hockey isn't legal in soccer.Did you play with the Hanson brothers ? Lol .
