It’s also insane that not only did Bombito last the full 90 after his start but he actually settled in and looked good. Sneakily good game from him.

[The Beaver 2.0]

Oso was good. Smart player. Period.

Isn’t that game in a temperature controlled stadium?

Are yellow cards reset after the quarterfinals?

[cornerkick]

The game in Arlington is indoors, so weather should not be an issue.  AT&T stadium.

We're through... hooray.
But we are playing so shit.

Crepeau, Bombito, Corneilius, Jakey, Laryea and Staq have been the only ones who I have been consistent and I would have positive things to say. 

Everyone else....

I would put David there too, he’s been good has just gotten no service when he gets it he’s good and he did score.

Johnston was insane tonight. 

Today I agree... but the other games. He wasn't.

Dallas Cowboys stadium. 

And yes its indoors

[frattinator]

Look, it wasn't pretty, but it was never going to be pretty given our opponent. 

Some nervy moments aside I thought we managed the game well. Crepeau didn't have to make a tough save the entire night (I know we were up a man), and we didn't try to push for the winner after the 75min mark.

Osorio over Kone was a big improvement.  Very little giveaways in the mid.  The fact that they both went 90 and Kone stayed on the bench may be an indication that Marsch feels the same.

Yes, it would have been nice to get the win, but at the same time, Chile didn't have many quality chances.

The ref took his yellow card out of his pocket...but....in the end....did he actually give one to Tani?

It seems like he didn't?!?

FotMob gave him a yellow so I assume it went.  

[Neil R.]

Congratulations to the boys!

A great step forward. Before the tournament, I wouldn't have believed that in our Peru and Chile matches, we'd defeat one and draw the other.

I think if Chile had scored, you would have seen Kone in for Oso at the next chance, but as long as just needed to keep control and avoid turnovers, I can understand why he kept Oso in.

[Canucklehead69]

Great effort throughout the group stage

 

We dick around a little too much in the box

 

Having to watch on fox is awful they hate us

[Shway]

I lowkey miss Herdmans ability to change formations with our guys. It needed it when we went up a man.

Osorio was also go in the middle, but were also killing our midfield at the same time which ultimately is effecting our wide play.

It's been tough to watch. But massive positive is we are really strong defensively.

A team is 11 men and the squad includes the rest. 

 

Hard for me to say what you did, if I think over half the starters played well. 

Edited June 30 by WestHamCanadianinOxford

[Shway]

Last thing....Marsch you made the logical changes with taking off Kone, and giving Jakey the start....but can you now stop starting Larin? 

[Jack1997]

I feel like Koné and Buchanan need to start next game, they’re two of our best players and if we want to win we’ll need them for that. I’d like to see Larin dropped but to be honest that doesn’t seem likely at this point.

[Kadenge]

Wow that was stressful. Had to pop an Asprin 🙂. The boys just made  some money 💰 🤑 . Gutsy draw regardless of the man advantage. So proud of the lads and Marsch.

[dyslexic nam]

For everyone complaining about offence, David almost chipped the keeper in the first half and Tani was a foot or two offside but otherwise converted a beauty attacking play off Tajon’s cross.  This isn’t Bermuda or Cuba.  We are going to have limited chances and we will have to battle for results.  We aren’t a top 10 team that can ping it around the field and dominate good teams.  We are a team of hardworking guys that are clawing their way into global relevancy.  Proud of them so far this tourney.
