Go Straya!!

[OntarioFox]

Alrighty then, time for Paraguay to spank the bad guys and the World Cup will be off to a lovely start 

[MPH]

All eyes will be on Pulisic…. A lot of pressure being put on him to perform.. he’s got more talent in his little finger than the rest of the team put together. Keep him quiet and you never know…

[MPH]

Should be mentioned, that in the World Cup qualifiers, Paraguay beat both Argentina  ( in Buenos Aries) and Brazil. they are no mugs.

Pochettinho looks like a poor man’s Russel Martin..

[MPH]

Own goal! USA winning.

[OntarioFox]

Ugh

[VLC86]

Donny T is going to be a few million short after that OG.

Why does the USA kit really want me to have a 99 with Strawbery sauce on it.The USA shirt is usually good,but this is not.

Quite similar to the Paraguay home top, actually!

[OntarioFox]

50,000 fans currently scratching their heads and asking each other why the scoreboard still says they only have one point

[MPH]

USA playing quite well actually. 2-0

[martyn]

This is a shellacking. Paraguay look hopeless but USA are really fluid.

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.

[VLC86]

Paraguay are genuinely attrocious but fair play to the yanks, battering them.

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

[MPH]

Only blip so far is that the American commentator claimed Balogan chose to play for the United States instead of England or Nigeria because the fans asked him to on social media 

[MPH]

3-0. Great half of football.

[Deeg67]

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.

[Dan]

USA have been superb. What is going on.

Did they bring a completely different team for this?
