Wow! They are dominating now. 2 goals in one minute. This team is very young. There is a lot of potential.

You know that commercial where they guy looks away "for a second" and all of a sudden the goal (or two, in this case) is scored?

SCCats has a pretty good track record at pulling that.

Here a late 4 minute business phone call and I look back and it's "WTF???"

Im liking Boyd thus far. Finally someone else out there who can offer up some on point service into the box.

I'm with you on Boyd. Interesting player.

6-0, what an ass kicking. I don't know who that is on the left wing but his crossing pases are on point.

Good control by the US team. But some really bad crosses. Being that this is the backup squad I think the US is doing okay.

These officials are really bad. Way too many fouls called.

The talent level in that group stage was utter dogshit.

Need to put this tournament out of its misery or at least drop it to a quadrennial event and play Copa instead in the off years.

I agree. The US and Mexico should be part of Copa. The fact that the US subs could win, and that no goals were scored against them speaks volumes. I'd love to see the USMNT play meaningful games against Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Columbia, and not just Mexico.

Goal Mckennie. The US is looking extremely good at the beginning of the match. They just must 2 other chances at goal.

Lightning delay. That is terrible luck for the US. I haven't ever seen them play this good. The delay could cost the US the momentum.

Pulisic is incredible. He has the potential to be the best player the USMNT ever had. He's only 20 years old. US 2-0

I really hope he gets some playing time at Chelsea. His crosses were really good, too bad nobody wanted to finish. Is it unrealistic to want to beat every CONCACAF maybe except for Mexico by two goals?

A lot of the usual classless behavior. Really disappointing result. Gotta finish those opportunities.

Yes, let’s join more Copa tournaments. And losing to Canada was bad.
