B

Harry Kane has only himself to blame for having no silverware. His loyalty to that craptastic owner is mind boggling.

Second bid for arguably the best striker in the world, fetching 80 million euros/68 million pounds is cheap! How on earth does a twat like Jack Grealish fetch $100 million, Declan Rice and possibly Caicedo as well. I'd take Harry Kane or Haaland over any of those 3 in millisecond.

Another interesting watch will be Wilfried Zaha. Always been a fan, but he is so loyal to Palace.

there was talk that Zaha would leave this summer, but that’s always the rumor.

Yeah, for me we see what a difference a world class #9 makes. So 100 million should, and will be the fee for Kane. Munich is still low balling. Of course Madrid has been sniffing around too. But if I’m Kane, I’d push for a move to a place like United because I’d want to stay in England and be the all time record holder for goals. Notice I didn’t say Chelsea…lol…but United could be a serious title contender or trophy winner with Kane. Chelsea looks to be a ways away.

0-0 at halftime. Morgan invisible. Sophia smith looks good and Thompson is explosive.

Morgan off to start 2nd half and Rodman in for her.

Is it wrong that I'm watching Guatemala-Jamaica instead of the women?

Is a friendly more interesting than a match for a made up trophy? Asking for SMF.

How’s Jamaica look?

Gold Cup been around for 3 decades, but made up lol. What a dork.

Jamaica looks solid, a little sloppy though. They're easily the better team. Antonio is a bull.

I have hoodies older.

then it's made up! smf is never wrong

Lynn Willams sent a long great diagonal ball to smith who got into the final 3rd and passed it across to Rodman for the finish.

 

[Fk_Pitt]

Rodman comes on for Morgan and scores 2 goals.

Color me shocked.

LOL. I love hockey. Been to Canada 20 times. The guys playing for Canada don't look like typical Canadians. Which is what I find hilarious about the the really lax eligibility rules for international soccer.

From what I can tell, all but 4 players on the roster were born in Canada. Two of those 4 moved to Canada at a young age

 

[Allan McMurray]

lol at this clown show. what a drastic drop off between the A squad and this B squad. Looks like when competition gets a lil better, the savior ferreira is invisible.

US very fortunate note to be called for the handball in the box

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

What a clown show by the referees.

 

[Allan McMurray]

What a clown show by the referees.

concacaf referees are notoriously terrible

 

[Fk_Pitt]

Wtf is Busio doing? He sucks. Get him out of there. (At risk of sounding reactionary like Pittpoker.). At minimum he’s just not playing well. Make a change BJ, and get cowell in there asap. And Vazquez hold up play is desperately needed.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Forget about this game, coming on August 4th, Meg 2: The Trench!

 

[Allan McMurray]

this jalen neal is absolutely dreadful. should not see the national team for the foreseeable future

 

[Allan McMurray]

get Jesus Zardes out. Par for the course, the competition gets better and he becomes invisible

Someone should whisper in his ear and tell him Canada is a small Caribbean island with a gdp smaller than SMFs wallet.

 

[Allan McMurray]

what a delicious ball by Jones and perfectly placed header by Vazquez

 

[Allan McMurray]

miles robinson. what a clown. saved in the 1st half by a weak push in the back.

That was unlucky though.

 

[Allan McMurray]

this is such a terrible canada team to.

garbage defense after they take the lead in general. i think canada has been comfortably the better team tonight. this game should in reality be over with a 2-1 canada win

 

[Fk_Pitt]

this is such a terrible canada team to.

Yep. They’re crap. One shot on goal all game and it was that PK. Against a back line that’s struggled.

BJ’s tactics were wrong. Glad he got it right with Cowell and Vazquez

 

[Fk_Pitt]

I don’t really agree. Although canada played the game they wanted in the first half. We held 2/3’s of the possession but never really threatened in the run of play. Lots of corners and set pieces. Then in the 70th minute we dominated play and looked good in the final 1/3rd.

 

[Allan McMurray]

emotions talking.

You can see the promise Cowell has. He's very strong, just needs to continue to work on his touch.

 

[Allan McMurray]

I do think Herdman is a good coach. I think he'd do a better job with the US1 than Derp

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

The number of times that a player from either team has passed the ball right to an opponent tonight is astounding.

lot's of lazy passing.

 

[Allan McMurray]

concacaf refereeing strikes again!

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

How is that a yellow card?

 

[Allan McMurray]

St. Clair could be canada's GK of the future. 2 very good saves tonight.

Worst distribution I think I’ve ever seen in one match though. He’s been bad.

feet no go...but he's made 2 critical and tough saves.

This one’s starting to feel like a loss. Dominating play, field tilted, and lose in penalties.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

get Jesus Zardes out. Par for the course, the competition gets better and he becomes invisible

And at the half of extra time Lalas is trying to convince everyone that Ferreira is having a great game and is all over the field.

 

[Allan McMurray]

Game over.

 

[Allan McMurray]

And at the half of extra time Lalas is trying to convince everyone that Ferreira is having a great game and is all over the field.

He just got smoked when he could have made a tackle, even if it's a yellow. But no. Lalas is a moron.
