    I can't believe how nervous I am watching this.

    We have to just keep attacking, attacking, attacking!

    It is going to be a wide open second half once USA sees that they need a win to go to the round of 16 instead of Slovenia.
  • Fab1b
    We have to come out 2nd half and go balls to the wall!!

    Man, I can't believe this first half. Absolutely need to put it into the net. We are terrible finishers.

    Halftime! 0-0

    The US need one early, then hope England holds on 1-0 against Slovenia. That happens, we're through as the #1. Still need that one though...
  • SportsAndLady
    I'd rather Slovenia equalize, so we can just tie Algeria or win.

    Bradleys changes today Edu? yes. Gomez? Sure. Borstein? Are you fucking shitting me? It is the biggest match he has ever managed and he decides that deploying a backline that has never played together even once is a great way to get the needed win.

    Fucking A.

    We should be up 2-0.

    Will they bring on Onyewu in the 2nd half and go with three in the back? When?
  • slingshot4ever
    Wow, who is that girl in the go daddy commercial?

    I thnk this is why he didn't start Onyewu. Becuase Bradley knows that at some point, they are going to need to score a goal...so they are going to need to go to 3 defenders and if you put in a rested Onyewu, you will be fine.

    even if USA scores early in the 2nd half, they will still bring him in to get fresh legs on the back line...it's a win/win. And besides, the defense hasn't given up a goal yet.

    I actually do not mind Onyewu not starting, now that I think about it more.

    Here we go now, come on US

    Game time now.

    He is taking Gomez out? I'm not sure I like that move. I like the way he plays.

    Altidore needed a talk from "Happy Gilmore's" Chubbs character. 'Tap it in, give it a little tap' Not sure why he thought he had to put a hole in the net

    Especially with a ball that is known to sail on players.
