Few to none of our fans are happy with the draw or our performance.

It’s the next day and England still hasn’t beaten the USA in a soccer match that mattered. God, I’d kill myself if I lived there.

Do you think it makes it harder for the other team when one team is playing for a draw? The US result is mostly due to your team being a bunch of ****s and being afraid to lose to them.

Seriously this is like Eastern Michigan losing to Alabama on a last second FG and Alabama celebrating and mocking Eastern Michigan like they just won the national championship. Low grade trolling on your part……..mate.

Uhhh…US had more shots on goal, corners, and all other offensive statistical categories.

So now I believe if Poland beats Argentina and Mexico beats Saudi Arabia, Mexico will be in regardless of what they do against Argentina.

Assuming Mexico doesn't beat Argentina but does beat Saudi Arabia, it's very possible a tie break will determine who moves on between Mexico and Poland/Argentina.

Poland might not be laughing about that last chance for a 3rd goal in 4 days time.

Every other sport requires hand-eye coordination, which is just more natural. Foot-eye coordination is a different beast.

I grew up playing football and now love both sports. But I didn’t appreciate the teamwork and fluid beauty of a well executed soccer game (regardless of score), until I played in adult leagues and tried it myself. Humbling.

That's actually one of the reasons I DONT like soccer. I prefer sports (generally like bball or football) where if you are just the best athlete out there you are gonna be one of the best. Think Giannis, LeBron, Ja Morant, Lamar Jackson, Aaron Donald. Freaks of nature. Never been a fan of the Bradys, Jokics, Bully Butlers etc, From what I can gather offside penalties, angles, amt of guys allowed on field and the size of the goal really mitigate the need to be really athletic. Of course being athletic always helps, but the best guys arent these amazing athletes. They are crafty, good strikers, play well in tight spaces to get weird headers and goals that way.

There are different categories when it come to being athletic, physical gifted ( fast/strong/can jump etc) and then there is the technique coordination aspect to being athletic then you need the sports IQ , I always preferred guys with a the last two but in rare cases you get one with all three and you end up with a guy like Jordan/Mahomes/McDavid /Ronaldo but I much preferred watching Steve Nash over Shaq or Gretzky over Lindros Mahomes over Jackson/Allen

Poor analogy mate. Thing is mate we didnt lose and yet people here are acting like we did, mate. And it puts you in a pretty bad place heading into the final game and we're through already, mate. That's what's the pisstake is about mate.

It’s gonna be hilarious when Gareth Bale drops 4 on England in a rout and the US shithouses Iran, with the US and Wales advancing.
