@TomeiTyler Landon Donovan and Tim Howard have objectively better USMNT accomplishments than Pulisic.
This is the most talented the national team has ever been and with Pulisic, the most talented player in history of US soccer the best result was a 3-2 win over Mexico
@jayelsen It’s actually a standard bone bruise which, definitionally includes a microfracture.
This type of injury is never referred to in this way, but it does garner more sympathy than calling it what it is.
@Jermainejunior You’ve seen the world a bit, ask yourself in how many countries could the best player in that country’s history lay an egg and become practically invisible in a World Cup (in the midst of said players prime) on home soil and be immune from criticism? Zero. Zilch
@ianmSC A bone bruise includes microfractures, it’s literally part of the clinical definition. In this case, it was leaked this way because microfracture sounds worse than bruise
@SamOlbur If this is 1996 instead of 2026, Gunnar Henderson’s left knee turns inside out like Willis McGahee’s on this play.
I’ve never seen someone stand so casually in front of a sliding player like that lol
@LiamCanadian21@btrembly@GallantSays Belgium has been dogshit all tournament and played their asses off yesterday. They won seemingly every 50/50 ball, they were a step quicker all over the field. This whole situation absolutely galvanized and motivated that group.
@Outroyal7@ThunderHusky17@usmntaut If healthy there’s no chance McKennie doesn’t make the ‘30 World Cup roster. If he doesn’t start that’d be great, he’s a very solid player everywhere on the pitch
@SamOlbur It’d be hard to have a worse performance. Tonight’s effort was pathetic, every player was outplayed by their Belgian counterpart, and their best players hardly played.
@MLSMoves Watch Freeman clear the ball into the box and then one Belgian player want the ball more than 3 Americans, the rest was a foregone conclusion.
