Not you. He was miles onside and the two who were off had no bearing on the goal whatsoever. It's just blind copium and Yank hatred.

That aged well. Seattle is a soccer-crazy town. More enthusiasm and understand the game better than half the PL stadium crowds at the very least.

There's ten Harry Souttars out there.

Turkey's attack is much ado about nothing. Lots of tika-taka, no ideas, and no quality in the final third.

Selfishly would like to see Turkey get one back for GD purposes.

Not going to win any beauty contests but Australia is doing ugly about as well it can be done. No possession but they don't look under much pressure. Not being broken down, and clinical when getting a rare chance to counter.

Absolute crap football, but under the circumstances I guess it doesn't matter. First win in 36 years and hope 3 points is enough.

It's sad for starters that people can't separate football and politics. But it's even sadder when those people come from a place that elected Boris Johnson and if given the chance today would probably elect Nigel Farage to be their leader.

Reyna is the X-factor. He's got the skill to be an impact player in any league in the world, and his maturity has never matched that level.

This is a serious team. Top manager, technical prowess, physically big and fast. Real impact talent on the bench, too.

Oh, that's a big goal. Give that kid confidence and he can be huge.

I mean, obviously if it ends this way you'll gladly take it. But the US has been wasteful. Should be 5-0 or 6-0.

Ugh, Pepi has been terrible.

Next time Balogun comes off I'd like to see Haji Wright get a look. On great form for Coventry and Pepi has looked weak and indecisive.

What a difference from Balogun to Pepi.

Poch needs to start subbing out some of the core pieces now.

That should have been a pen on Tillman.

3-0 is generous to Paraguay.

Great use of VAR there. Yellow for diving, no yellow for Ream.

7 starters who start in European 1st divisions, a coach with real tactical nous at the highest level, and home crowd energy.

What a goal by Balogun. Makes a huge difference having a #9 of real quality. Without question the best half of football the USMNT have ever played.

They beat Brazil and Argentina in the qualifying. Sometimes it's the opposition that makes you look atrocious.

This place would be so lost if they couldn't pretend like the US wasn't now a huge soccer country. USA looks great so far. Poch has them playing fluid and attacking football and Pulisic looks tremendous.

PGA of America has fired Bob Rea Jr., the guy behind the Bethpage Ryder Cup fiasco (and who issued an insipid dismissal of its significance). I don't agree with much of what they do but good move here.

I do think you can make a credible case that the playoffs should just be replayed. It's only two extra matches and it would be the fairest way to handle the situation. We'd certainly be screaming for it if we were in Wrexham's shoes.
