There is some very good talent/skill on the US team. they put out a lot of effort and played hard, but they did not play smart and were not properly prepared. Their lack of tracking and marking the opposing offense was disgusting, and disastrous. Attention to strategic detail was absent. This, firstly, is the fault of the coach.
And, he was not prepared with suitable back up players to insert when needed - again - poor strategic prep.
More than once I heard the announcers/commenters state that the coach's primary goal in World Cup play was to give the soccer world reasons to respect and honor US soccer. If so, he failed miserably. Is that woke?
Did he ever think that great teaching and preparation, then game strategy to take advantage of opportunities and stifle problems - thus scoring and winning matches - might generate respect for the team and program? Get a coach!

CCCC, This coach was very focused on the Gay Alphabet agenda,and was very vocal about it prior to Dubai officails shutting him down, Sports is not the place to advertise you sexuality and woke agenda, on top of all that he is not a very good coach, which you pointed out. Rio7

On the third Dutch goal, the right wing was in the penalty box, wide open. He was waving his hands in the air as to say, "Pass me the ball and I will score" and the left wing passed him the ball. He scored, unmarked.
He was SEVEN YARDS from the US goal, and not a defender within eight yards of him. Disgraceful defense.
USA: Get on the plane and fly back home. Y'all don't deserve to play any more in the World Cup.
"WE'RE NUMBER SIXTEEN! WE'RE NUMBER SIXTEEN!"
Oh well, wait 'till next year. Oops, I mean, wait 'till four years from now.

Lalas said they weren't aggressive enough, makes sense since most soccer players are twinks.....

I was getting my man bum colored so I missed the game Bum or bun? Bum is British slang for "ass." What color is your bum, inquiring minds want to know.

Go Netherlands (or I should say Go whoever is playing the US national teams)... Ever since the men's team changed their logo to incorporate the rainbow flag i have pulled against them.... ever since all the lying and crying from the womens team I pull against them... I love soccer and love the US but I cannot pull for either of the national teams anymore. We may be gay, but, at least, were not as gay as the Dutch! 😂 Not yet, but it's getting too close to call!
