I don't know, I think you are looking pretty poorly and might be coming down with something and have to go back to the hotel room.

A Friday wedding? Bah, they brought it upon themselves when you do nothing but drink and watch the game on your phone. Food optional, if you want it.

It's football season!!
Let’s go!
Awesome! Let’s get those 3 points!!
amazing anthem
Looks like a lot of smog around the arena.
Too close for comfort
Yay!
YEAH BABY POLISIC CREATED ALL THAT - SPLIT TWO DEFENDERS AND THEY HAD TO SEND TWO MORE
So far they look brilliant tactically and great on the ball.every player under control and moving well without the ball. Their defense has looked good. I particularly enjoyed the long pass that pulisic brought down under control and dribbled back out and kept the ball as opposed to kicking it away. Those little things are something we used to never see our national team do at this level.

What a match to attend! You're our good luck charm and now you have to go to all the games--we'll win the whole damn thing!

Well now, THAT is how you start the World Cup, baby! Play like this in every game, and there's no limit to how far this team can go.
On a side note, I made cheddar off this game. I bet maybe, maybe once every year or two. I placed 60 dollars of wagers on the WC. For this game, I put in a prop bet for Balogun to score, 3 goals or more in the game, and a US win. That was comfortably won pretty early on! I should have put more on the bet lol

Very impressed with the effort and the win. I don't think we have ever seen a USMNT dominate a match like this team did. A large majority of the match was played in Paraguay's half of the pitch. It certainly appeared that Berhalter was told to focus on defense and not worry about getting involved in the attack as he constantly hung back in midfield. Even with that they still created multiple scoring chances in the Paraguay third.
I truly expect similar results against Australia. I watched a Australian tuneup match and did not come away impressed by them. I'm going to watch the Turkey/Australia match tomorrow which is on at noon.

I know I had low expectations going into this World Cup for the USA team. That was really impressive. I did not think we would DOMINATE any team from South America or Europe.
