OT: The 2026 World Cup Thread

[Sfpat]

Can anyone name 2 USMNT players? Is Landon Donavan still playing?

 

[Sect140]

Ticket prices would choke a horse and thats controlled by FIFA too.

That’s right I forgot you lived in Chiefs country. My friends son got the tickets, he’s got tickets to two England matches, here in Gillette and one in Jersey, and a Spain match in Atlanta, his future in-laws are from Spain and live in Atlanta so he’s taking them, I told him nicely played. My ticket he got for me and my son are $350.00 a piece. I’m sure they are up in the third level.

I gave them a choice for before the game, hit a bar to eat and drink there like they do when they are back home or we can tailgate and I will set everything up and grill for everyone, they chose tailgating.

I'm going to a game on Tuesday. Going to get piss drunk

 

[Huckleberry1]

their league has fallen in quality and they haven't produced world class players like 20 years ago

They are still producing some really good players, but not like they used to.

They are still producing some really good players, but not like they used to.

They have a world class goalkeeper in Donu
Bastoni probably going to a giant in Barca or Madrid
Chiesa has the potential
Tonali is quality too but it's not like those past years
Buffon, Maldini, Pierlo, Totti to name a few

Spain has a good team.

I used to live in Atlanta. Is the game at Georgia Tech? $350 aint too bad. When the games were announced here the prices started out high as hell. KCMO is a soccer town with a sizeable Hispanic population and younger fans who grew up playing the game.

When Messi played at Arrowhead a couple of years ago, the place sold out 80,000 seats in no time.

Its too bad about Arrowhead because I believe its the best tailgating stadium in the NFL. If you ever get to go. Youre doing right too.

USA up 1-0

 

[bormio]

Good teams get the 2nd goal. What does it mean when you get 3?

 

[neuronet]

us is playing really well. Wow

 

[patman12]

I enjoy the sport but there really are too many flops and faux injuries.

 

[A.C Vegas]

That last goal was wild just complete control of the ball like 20 passes and off the out side of the foot

 

[A.C Vegas]

I enjoy the sport but there really are too many flops and faux injuries.

So it's almost as bad as the NBA

 

[XLIX]

I enjoy the sport but there really are too many flops and faux injuries.

I agree but tonight's refs weren't having any of it. They let the fellas play.

 

[Guts]

Best the USA has looked under Poch if they keep up this level of play they can make a Semis appearance not impossible depending on the knockout draws

 

[bormio]

Pochettino is a magician. US soccer has been station to station, predictable, lacking in the creativity that is the essence of the game. He didn’t worry about results in the build up - he was changing the culture. The goals were beautiful and occurred from play, not set pieces. And we got the 2nd goal after the opener - something we have been terrible at

 

[borg]

Good teams get the 2nd goal. What does it mean when you get 3?

Could mean US played a 3rd world country with a population 1/50th of the US of A

Or

Paraguay beat Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay in qualifying this cycle

 

[Sorrynotsorry]

Paraguay beat Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay in qualifying this cycle

Thank God I bet on the US without this knowledge. I wouldnt have bet.

Ignorance is bliss!

CONMEBOL qualifiers are a grind too so they earned their spot. US just made them irrelevant
