Honduras actually showed up for the second half so the US doesn’t look quite as impressive. Still looking pretty good though and the presence of Honduras attacking moves should open up even more transition.
We look utterly irritating to try and play through in the press. Honduras can’t deal with it at all unless we cough it up in midfield and even then, barely.
I’m a Bergwjin non-believer at this point. He’ll put numbers up at Ajax, but so does Dusan Tadic.
