Copa America game thread

[Cellar-Door]

Zardes actually got off a good cross?

 

[lars10]

now please defend and counter.

 

[Ale Xander]

Sweet pass and finish

 

[teddykgb]

teammates left Zardes for dead out there in a 2 v 1. He did really well to turn that not just into a goal but anything threatening at all

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bad time for a dive by Wood.

 

[OCST]

Great cross and finish. Professional goal.

This.

 

[McBride11]

That's why Zardes is out there. Fuck yeah.

He's fucking fast.

Even the with classic Cobi Jones speed move on the wing

 

[Titans Bastard]

Nice work by Zardes creating separation and getting a tidy cutback across the box. Dempsey is so much better as a supporting striker.

Ball watching by Paraguay's defense.

 

[lars10]

That challenge by Wood is exactly what Paraguay has done a couple times.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That is an awful call.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Bradley is great at making mistakes the lead directly to dangerous counters. The fuck are you thinking with that "free kick."

 

[Cellar-Door]

That call is garbage

 

[lars10]

They need to focus on their shape a lot more.

 

[Gunfighter 09]

Brooks is playing damn well.

 

[jmcc5400]

Brooks is having a game

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

"John Brooks" is German for "warm blanket."

 

[Ed Hillel]

Looked like another shit callZ

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Go down easier fuckface.

 

[OCST]

Cheap

 

[SoxFanInCali]

If a man falls down in this game, the whistle blows.

 

[lars10]

Did the US get another Mexican ref for this game?

 

[McBride11]

US gonna get a shit card possible suspension with these weak ass calls

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bradley gives it away for shiggles I guess.

 

[DJnVa]

Did the US get another Mexican ref for this game?

TRUMP!!!

 

[McBride11]

Bradley gives it away for shiggles I guess.

It helps increase his vaunted work rate / distance covered

 

[Cellar-Door]

Pick your fucking head up Dempsey!

 

[teddykgb]

I don't know who missed that run through the middle but my goodness that was a 1 v 1 begging to happen

 

[Ed Hillel]

LOL

 

[Ed Hillel]

"Down as if shot!"

 

[Cellar-Door]

Umm that ain't nothing he took a forearm to the chin.

 

[shawnrbu]

Absolutely nothing? He got forearmed in the head.

 

[cheekydave]

Lebron!

 

[Titans Bastard]

Rivaldo would be proud.

Edit - maybe not

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

It helps increase his vaunted work rate / distance covered

Lol, the old Bradley Metric.

 

[Over Guapo Grande]

His own forearm maybe

 

[teddykgb]

the replay pretty clearly showed Yedlin giving him a shot?

Unfortunate how all the chances have fallen to right footed players on the left.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Um, advantage

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Nice job staying big by Guzan.

 

[OCST]

Nice huzan

 

[blueguitar322]

Guzan saved Brooks' bacon there.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Haha, some DBag in the stands brought a whistle.

 

[jmcc5400]

Good half. Entertaining. A couple of big breaks

 

[teddykgb]

Why on earth would we take a short corner there? lucky the ref didn't blow the whistle immediately

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bradley with two dreadful crosses in a row.

 

[shawnrbu]

Is anyone at risk of a suspension with 1 yellow card in the 2nd Half?

 

[Ale Xander]

Bradley on offense

Sigh

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Huge to escape the half with the lead. Plenty of counter opportunities to be had in the second half, Paraguay is going to be pressing like crazy.

 

[OCST]

Haha, some DBag in the stands brought a whistle.

My dad did that at a UConn hoops game in the 60s. Got tossed.

 

[Silverdude2167]

The US looks like hot shit. The Ref sucks and Paraguay plays an ugly game.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Is anyone at risk of a suspension with 1 yellow card in the 2nd Half?

Brooks
Bedoya
Johnson
