The announcers are half empty like our fans.

constantly worrying about what if this.....and what if that...... Yikes..

Want to see the replay of offside on second goal. We are talking inches....

Awesome that Iran has to try to score and we are now getting tons of opportunities..


USA...USA...USA...USA...USA...USA

Have to keep dominating the midfield. Turner will need to come up big in the second half as Iran must score. Opens up for the counterattack

US should play the second half the same way as the first. At most, they should keep one mid back a bit to disrupt counters.

I’d go so far as to tell the team to expect Iran to get a goal so we need to get a few more. Worst thing is for the US, with its youth and all the pressure of the moment, to go out there all tight and play scared. Just go out and outscore the opponent in the second half.

This looks like Pulisic at his best. Healthy under Frank Lampard. Darting fearless runs in the box.
He’s been the best I’ve seen him all tournament long. I’ve become a fan over these group stage games, where I was a bit down in him during qualifying.

Ugh. And now off. Poor guy can't catch an injury break

I love when they call refs experienced....I have seen this ref numerous times and he has always been terrible.

You cannot be everyone's friend.

Like that we're keeping up the pressure here, unlike the 2nd half against Wales - hope we can keep it up...
