Intriguing that #13 for the US could potentially have stopped all three of Belgium goals, but unfortunately he was not able to. Not saying that he is to blame for all three goals, but not often that you see a single player involved on so many game changing plays.

Turns out we haven’t improved we just had a really easy draw

Roooooouuugggghhh night for the goal keeper.

Got 4 years to develop a new one. When you go into the WC with 3 keepers, that’s not a good sign. This needs to be a focus.

Also, we really need this momentum to develop the MLS into a legit level league. As that league grows, so does our national team. It isn’t just for the top level, but those programs then help pay for the developmental teams that we lack here in the US.

We look overmatched at every position

Ream has been awful

I thought Freese could have moved his feet better on Belgium's first 2 goals. The 3rd Belgium goal was as bonehead of a play by a goalie that you will see. Why did he hesitate on the kick to clear it? Was he trying to draw a foul?

I think he accidentally kicked the ground instead of the ball

As is the case with host countries. But, we’re losing to a top 8 team in the world. At this point, we’re a top 16 team. So we played to where we should have.

The yellow cards may be one of the softest things I’ve seen in a sport.

Please no. Just let him be.

Welp. It was fun while it lasted.

 

[cyclonespiker33]

not with that attitude

It's the attitude of our country. If football, basketball, baseball, and hockey get the top athletes before soccer, what do you expect?

 

[HouClone]

Another lousy goal given up. What a crap game.

 

[Shawker]

I swear we have the dumbest defensive players.
