I think it’s pretty evident that Mauricio Pochettino is buying into this team and this country more and more each and every game. I honestly believe he might decide to stay on for another cycle.
🇺🇸 🚨🚨POCHETTINO:
"I have no problem with red cards when they're deserved but if Balogun is sent off for that challenge, then explain to me why Messi wasn't against Algeria. The rules cannot change depending on the name on the back of the shirt. Football deserves consistency"
As a Canadian, I have no horse in this particular race… BUT, that’s never a red card on Balogun. And if it is, then how the hell did Messi not get sent off for the identical thing in the group stages?
As always, lack of consistency in VAR and Ref decisions.
FIFA could do the right thing and overturn the red card on Flo Balogun.
But that would be the (**checks notes**) very FIRST time FIFA has ever done the right thing.
The Mavericks, I’m told, are expected to secure former Pelicans coach Willie Green as a top assistant for Dusty May’s first NBA coaching staff.
The Warriors hoped to bring him back for a second stint on Steve Kerr’s staff but May’s jump to the NBA gave Green two strong options.
“If you give a red card here, the consistency, why is not Messi getting the red card?”
@Jermainejunior on Flo Balogun receiving a red card in the USMNT’s Round of 32 victory.
FIFA sources confirm there is no mechanism to appeal a World Cup red card in their Disciplinary Code. Which seems quite surreal. But it means Balogun will not be able to play Belgium.

I like what Masai and Schmitz have done with these Sasser and Aldama moves.
Great spacing and very solid shooters around Coop and Kai.
Feels like there’s a bigger move brewing, though.
the mavericks current GM is a former blazers executive. have to wonder if the next domino is dallas sending one of their excess forwards to Portland for one of their excess guards.
