LFG!

[Strait Red]

What’s with the fireworks during the anthem?

[footballfreak]

I don’t buy the narrative that Cornelius isn’t good enough. He was solid against Jamaica and has been in excellent form in Greece. Disappointed not to see him start.

[gator]

What an atmosphere! I am nervous as hell, I think our formation has made it worse!😀

[rydermike]

Were they booing our anthem? That's just unnecessary. I totally get making an environment hostile, but that's not needed

[A.D.I.D.A.S.]

Seriously, fireworks and boos during our anthem. Hope our boys are fired up and trounce them 😠

[vancanman]

Fireworks during O Canada?   How about we play the theme from Friendly Giant instead of your anthem next time you're in Canada?

First hot take of the night: Keylor Navas looks like a tool.

Would love to see Milan kick his ass !!

I think it is just that he plays more on the side. They are looking to a middle back to replace Vitoria

This guy is a legend just for the anthems.

[jonovision]

Now for 6 verses of another Sousa-esque Central American national anthem.

I'd like to think they were booing the bloody fireworks, but I'm sure you're right.  Classless.

[JohnnyFranchise]

Let's f*cking do this!

[Vasi]

Mother Fucking Disrespect. Time to show these fucks.

I am a huge advocate of clearing the noise, keeping everything out of the mind, solely focused o the pitch.

[cornerkick]

Not liking the fireworks antics….😡

[Cblake]

it is win and in, stay focused on that and everything else will fall into place. 

[Cblake]

So Atiba played some CB in 2019?

[spitfire]

I may have to mute this…2am here…

This is a *Pancho Espolanza b side, played at half speed.

A made up name because I couldn't think of any Latin guys who suck.

[Lansdude]

Graphics ppl it's Kendall WaSTon not WATSON.

He's played CB off and on for quite a while.  He had some good games in the early days.  I can't remember exactly which ones but there were some.
