Dest got plenty of deserved criticism, but after looking at his lowlight reel, I’m baffled by how bad the U.S. shape was in possession. No options, nearest teammates not in a passing lane/running away.

No positive options here. He tries a positive play, and loses out.

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

@JoserNunez91 @EliotShorrParks You are correct

Lukaku, Tielemans, Doku, Courtois, De Bruyne all have higher pedigree than probably any USMNT player ever.

De Cuyper, Trossard, De Ketelaere, Onana all start on our team.

we had a superior midfield though. Raskin and Vanaken aren’t Adams, Weston or Tillman.

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

Sorry I’m not having any of this “our players aren’t good enough” nonsense.

Belgium bossed us in midfield. Raskin plays at Rangers. Vanaken plays at Brugge. We can’t compete with that??

This game is on Poch. He got outfoxed by Rudi Garcia.

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

Too many people play fifa and think as long as you nick the ball it can’t be a foul.

You have to win the ball. The touch changes absolutely nothing in the play.

Homie might as well have missed entirely it doesn’t impact the play at all.

[Josh Jeffery @JeffCarnage]

He 100% got a touch on that. Look at the ball change direction.

How did the VAR goons not see that? Why did they not show the referee that angle?

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

Yikes. Thats not how an arm bends.

Hope it doesn’t end his tournament.

If we’re going to say Balogun needs to be in control of his body, and risks injuring an opponent, thus it’s a red card - how is a forearm to the head at speed any different?

Concussions are orders of magnitude more serious than sprained ankles and it’s not even really close.

[FOX Sports @FOXSports]

A scary collision immediately after the restart between Tyler Adams and Edin Džeko

Union legend #doop

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

Like an American legend did 31 years ago, Mike Grella doubled down against Australia. #USMNT

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

Add it to the file, mate

[FOX Soccer @FOXSoccer]

Australian defender Kai Trewin has never wanted to win a game more than the one against the USMNT

@EricWynalda My first thought every time you say this.

[Emmett McConnell @emcconnell92]

That Chalamet, so hot right now.

[adidas @adidas]

In this Backyard, it’s “win or go home,” and this crew hasn’t left since the 90's.

Where there’s a pitch, there’s a legend.
