Junior Holiett gave a real veteran's performance and helped steady this team which at times looked sloppy and he shades the MOTM for me over Liam Millar who was excellent, we saw some good performances from some youngsters which is encouraging! Obviously this is vs a depleted opponent but in years past we wouldn't have got the needed result, bring on the US!😧

Good performance by Nelson tonight.  Start him again on Sunday.

I Hope we see Jayden Nelson at some point tonight. Also, Loturi of course.

The amount of assumptions and backhanded criticisms in this article is ridiculous.

A good article here: https://oncubanews.com/deportes/futbol/la-decepcion-de-la-seleccion-cubana-de-futbol-en-la-copa-oro/ 
I think I read somewhere they added two replacement players but can't immediately find the source.
This is also an interesting situation here with a Youtuber commenting on the tweets and other social media posts by the father of one of the Cubans who left the team: 
 

stranger things have happened, but it's a soccer game and perhaps the Phoenix rises from the ashes

Narrator voice: It did not cost them there in Honduras.

More than just the official airline of the Gold Cup...

wonder if he wants to help out the CaMNT on Tuesday ? lol

He's back home in Ottawa for his offseason, was helping out youth practices at his old local club here.

No final ball and no one on the end of it who poses a multi-faceted threat to putting away any service that does get in to him.  So that's that.
We knew going into this tourney that this would be a goal shy side, so I don't think anyone should be surprised with that.  Laryea's sneaky acceleration on the dribble makes things happen down the right but otherwise we didn't generate anything consistently menacing.  Then, when they had one defensive breakdown late in the game, the technical limitations of the player receiving the ball turned a gilt-edged chance into a save:  brave keeping but Shaffelburg should have buried that one.
It's a team of supporting cast actors missing a leading man or two, especially in attack.  And though Guatemala worked hard, they also lack the quality needed to punish an opponent.  Seems appropriate:  this edition of the Gold Cup has more of the NIT tourney feel to it than a March Madness.

Oh crap, you didn't watch?  Easton Ongaro was a late call-in to cover for a hurt Cavallini and in reverse-Floro fashion, he anchored the backline.  In a surprise move in the 65th minute, both Richard Shaw and Phil Neville were substituted in and both got reds within 5 minutes cause they have no idea what CONCACAF is like.  To try to find a late winner, Guatemala called down Carlos Ruiz from the press box for a 90th minute corner but De Vos gave him a forearm shiver as he was warming up and he literally died on the sideline.
Also Wotherspoon played like hot garbage.   It was crazy.

You heard it right, but it's not true.  Guatemala and Guadeloupe tie, they're both on five and if we win by 2, then we're ahead of Guatemala.  
Brennan is jetlagged from flying back from Houston.

Shaffelburg has earned the right to start in the next game.

Only need a couple more defections and we got our 3-0 win against Cuba in the bag.

This was awful
