Now they have to beat Uruguay or they probably wont advance. Uruguay is the second best South American team in WC qualifiers, after Argentina. Tough luck…

We could still lose to Uruguay and advance. A draw would likely still put us in a good place (I don’t see Panama blowing out Bolivia).

Played into the hands of the filthy, Dirty, nasty style of play Panama is known for as well. Who is in charge on and off the field? This should have been so thoroughly covered before the game. Maybe it was and in the heat of the action there was nothing to be done. Hard to fight back physically when you are down a man.

They’re all professionals playing in Europe. They also know how they play. He just lost it. It sucks.

The good news is Bolivia is terrible And after two goals down had nothing left to play for. If the Americans can regroup, they can give Uruguay a game. Balogun and Pulisic are going to have to let it fly every chance they get from 25 in to 18 and have guys press for rebounds.

Maybe Uruguay rests some folks as they have won the group pretty much already. Panama will beat Bolivia and it could be by more than 2 goals. That red may haunt this team for a while to come if they don't somehow pull off the upset on Monday night.

an easy call for the ref:








he could have received a red -- just an idiotic challenge:






nice goal, but a mandatory yellow for removing the shirt:

I do not like this call. If you're falling down, that is a natural arm position. (Just my personal opinion. If the arm is out from the body, they generally call this.)









it should been a foul -- no goal, but the ref didn't call it:
