Was thinking about making my way to KC for this, I freaking hate arrowhead from a transportation standpoint. The horror stories I heard of uber and Lyft from big events recently like Taylor swift and beyonce has me hedging because I wouldn’t have a car.

Whenever I've gone to anything at Arrowhead, I try to park as close to the exit as I can. The walk is farther, but the reduced aggravation when you leave is worth it.

Whelp. Brazil's 1st goal in the 17th minute.

This is gonna be ugly.

Can we get a new coach before the Olympics?

 

[Althetuna]

Pulisic scores!!

 

[pulse]

That was a great clear out and strike.

 

[Althetuna]

Much better performace than Saturday. Back line played much better.

 

[AlaCyclone]

Great Draw!

It doesn't appear that there are, but maybe someone else can find out something more for you. We are going to be out of town that weekend, so I honestly didn't look at tickets until now. I did find this story/timeline from the American Outlaws expressing their frustration.

Since this will be the first Copa game hosted by KC, I'm curious what kind of turnout we're going to get. Obviously, Copa is a bigger deal than other International matches held here, but there are currently a LOT of tickets still up for sale on Ticketmaster. I assume that Children's Mercy wouldn't have the capacity to hold the demand, but I'm having a hard time envisioning Arrowhead not looking pretty spotty with fans. I hope I'm wrong.

Messi vs Sporting got over 72k

Messi vs Sporting got over 72k

For Messi, there was a TON of buzz in town for weeks beforehand. I've heard remarkable little chatter about anyone going to Copa.

The game will also be competing with the the holiday week and the lake for peoples' attention. If the stadium gets full, I think a decent portion are going to be coming from out-of-town and the opposing fans.

Again, I hope I'm wrong. It wouldn't be a good look to have a poor turnout a year before the World Cup.

Been tough waiting for this as the Euros are in full swing. Hope the first two games are uneventful and we can go into the Uruguay game for the group winner as the only thing on the line.

Let's Get Ready to Copa!

 

[AlaCyclone]

Pulisic!

 

[Althetuna]

What a goal by Pulisic.

 

[jdoggivjc]

It's strange, seeing USA definitively better than an opponent like this.

 

[WooBadger18]

Great goal

 

[Althetuna]

Nice.

 

[jdoggivjc]

No Euro 2024 thread from what I can see, so I'll just dump it here - potential historical upset in the making with Georgia up 2-0 on Portugal in the 2nd half.

 

[Althetuna]

USA v Panama starting soon.
