Feels like a pretty big win for the USA.

I'm not up to date on soccer as much as Troy, but yes it does.

I think we still need a coach though?

USA-Mexico got a little chippy.
Tempers flared just before the 70-minute mark as Mexico’s César Montes aggressively kicked out at Folarin Balogun, resulting in a red card, before Weston McKennie – who had his shirt torn in the ensuing scuffle – was also sent off for his role in the melee.

Fifteen minutes later, Mexico defender Gerardo Arteaga and USMNT star Sergiño Dest were both shown straight red cards for pushing each other during another altercation between the two teams.

The USMNT will now face Canada in the Concacaf Nations League final on Sunday.
So they finished 9v9. And the game was called a few minutes early.

Mexico REALLY hates gay people apparently. They just cannot stop chanting anti-gay stuff at soccer games.

Berhalter returning as USMNT coach.

Mexico (players and fans) are just really mad that our two programs are going in wildly different trajectories, despite a history of a pretty balanced rivalry.

USA debuted a young stud we stole from England, beat the pants off Mexico in the game itself, and did it all with an assistant coach playing the role of head coach (his first time doing that).

Mexico never looked up for it, haven't beaten us since 2019, and the frustration from fans and players was obvious in the violent and belligerent conduct by both.

Sucks to suck, Mexico.

I legit wondered if, because it was such a rout, if someone in Mexico would get killed or vanish in a month or two in "unrelated circumstances". Drug lords are sports fans too...

FIFA chief is begging NZ citizens to buy tickets to the WWC.

Maybe Megan Rapinoe can go on live TV there are tell them how they're all sexist?

Carli Llyod says the USWNT lacks passion.

This is after they tied 21st ranked Portugal to finish second in the group.

I think they probably lack chemistry and cohesion, as well as, passion. There are a few new members to the squad, and more than one of the team's leaders seems to have been more focused on politics than soccer over the past few years.

If I never hear from Megan Rapinoe again, it'll be too soon.

She is the living embodiment of "cunt".

That totally sucks. That woman played her heart out, and now to have this crushing pain. I'm here for all the comfort she may need.

I'm reminded of the Family Guy joke about romcoms: "Because all of your problems can be solved by my penis."

English star getting blasted for going to Saudi team.

Like I say about the LIV folks, go get paid, but don't lie about your purpose there. You sold your soul and the only person that believes your reasoning for doing so is you. And I'd wager even you don't believe it.

"Saudi Arabia is an Islamic country and has been forever. They still execute homosexuals, but I will change their ways with my attitude changing soccer skills!"
