YOUNG AMERICANS
The USMNT was by far the youngest team to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, garnering valuable experience going through the rigors of World Cup qualifying. Through 14 qualifiers, the USA Starting XI came in at an average of 23.82, almost two years younger than the next closest team, Ghana at 25.67. Together, the other 31 participating teams averaged a Starting XI age of 27.5 through qualifying, nearly four full years older than the U.S. Sources say this is one of the youngest, but most talented teams the U.S. has ever fielded. While they may not win the world cup this year, they may garner the experience needed to make a serious run on home soil in the year 2026 when the World Cup comes back to North America.

I am surprised how many disallowed offsides goals are happening on plays where the attacker would have been first to the ball if they held up run to not be offsides.

Seems like attackers are not taking into account the technology will catch every offsides.

I have talked as much soccer in this thread as anyone. I think you are just being really sensitive for some reason. Regardless this is my last post on something that was just funny and is not a big deal. Bitch as much as you want.

Does not matter if he was going for the ball. He missed the ball and had contact to Messi's face.

Was a very poor challenge by the keeper and was lucky that Messi is pathetic from the spot.

"In play"

GTFO. That ball was completely unreachable. Just because it hasn't crossed the line yet, you somehow justify that bullshit PK.

USMNT advanced. Youngest team ever (sans Ream). Our midfield dominated England, Wales, and Iran. We shut all three opponents except for a PK.

But yeah you’re just joking around with a dumbass fox news post. The **** out of here bro. You douched this thread up.
