But that game is on the main Fox anyways so anyone in Canada with cable can still get it. USA v Bolivia at 6pm ET will be widely available. Be interesting to see how a decent Concacaf team will do against probably the third favourites. 74 Whitecap, dyslexic nam, narduch and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadenge Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 4 hours ago, jonovision said: I do think the Copa fields will improve before they get worse. The biggest issue I noticed in the Canada game was the seams. Those will become less of a problem as the grass at the seams grows together and is cut. As you point out, though, overall they will degrade quickly. For the Mexico v Jamaica game the little remote yellow toy that delivered the game ball was bouncing all the way to the center spot and apparently conked out on the way back. I guess it was not a ATV. The obvious seams are not a good look. JAVIERF, narduch, Unnamed Trialist and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 In a way we lucked out. Our next 2 games will be on real grass. I think Argentina's next match will again be on sod laid over artificial. But their 3rd game will be at a real grass stadium Cheeta, jhoops__, Canuckia and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maplebanana Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I turned on the Uruguay-Panama game at around 83' and it was 1-0. It ended 3-1. I'm not sure if that makes me a good luck charm or bad luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMo Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Best match of the tournament for me. Both teams impressed at different stages. Panama overperformed expectations and deserved that goal. I wouldn’t be surprised if we go into the final matchday, with runner up still for grabs between Panama and the US. JAVIERF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAVIERF Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Panamá really stood up , what if they make a major upset game #2? They look solid and hard to beat plus the kick you off if needed I See a ted coming in the US Vs PANAMA longlugan and Cadeau 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpursFlu Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Imagine if Colombia played in NJ. This crowd is insane May not be the most popular take but next time this tournament is played in America they should expand to 24 teams. Imagine Colombia v Guatemala or El Salvador.

CanadaFan123 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Expand it but keep it rotated. Let’s not ruin another international tournament by having it always in one country. This tournament has immense potential to be the best in the world but will never reach it if they make the USA the hub. TGAA_Star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah expand it to 24 like the Euros and like I said all 10 teams from CONMEBOL and 14 teams from CONCACAF but for the CONCACAF teams they have to qualify for the next or future Copa editions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmen Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I'd settle for keeping it at 16, something that is not a guarantee right now. Some games might draw well in the US and nowhere else, which is why I think moving to 24 is jumping the gun. And yes, it should always be rotated.

SpursFlu Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 The anti purist take.. do the expanded tournament every 4 years and always in the US. The stadiums, accessibility and crowds are just too good You basically have Brazil and Mexico that could host a 24 team tournament. There aren't a lot of options out there. It's either the US or across all of South America TGAA_Star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
