you forgot to mention welbeck and two other being offside on that goal…
bad calls both ways.
Zusi played like a man on a mission, incredible game overall. Huge pts for kc
Guardado with two! The first a GOLAZOOOO!!
Scary!
Based on 2 1/2 matches, this is clearly Mexico’s Gold Cup to lose.
Mexico 4 Costa Rica 0 at the half.
Mexico leading Costa Rica 3-0 at the 30th minute… Yikes.
So uh…what would be less embarrassing? Going out early to a team like Jamaica or getting another beating from Mexico in the final?
Because that team looks unstoppable…
Costa rica getting titied right now
This has been the weekend of the golazo in the MLS
Graham Zusi just hit a bomb from 45 yards that caught Hartman napping what a strike
Holy sh*t what a rip by Zusi
Its sad seeing mexico fill up a stadium in our country when we cant
better goal by shea….great individual effort. I would have rather seen him in the GC than Rodgers..
great goal by zusi
very sad looking attendance in Dallas. Ref letting way too much go uncalled.
David Beckham tackled Tchani yesterday. Beckham got a yellow card which was the correct call. Tchani needs to shut up and just play. Beckham has had like 7 yellow cards this year which is far from preferential treatment.
Tony Tchani’s Twitter: “Thank God my ankle is not broken n that’s a shame how big stars can do whatever they want n don’t get penalized. How can this *** advance???”
1) smh MLS
2) what happened here and who almost broke his leg?
Quite an remarkable performance by England to save a point against Spain, though Spain’s goal looked to have come off the hand of the goal scorer, nevertheless things evened out. Spain had some very good possession but failed to hit back with the opportunities, England were able to put together a good sequence to finish off their offensive chance. Danny Welbeck is going to be a very good player for the Three Lions in the next couple of years, I expect him to show his potential if give nthe opportunity at Old Trafford.
It isn’t a “reference” when the exact word is used.
And who cares? Is it not a battle between two teams?
I wonder how much $ is the field right there.
1-0 spain now. Despite all names on the England roster.
ESPN3 actually for Spain England U-21s.
Spain-England U-21’s should be a good one on streams.
It gets people excited (to likely see a draw albeit.)
“There is MLS action as well, with red-hot FC Dallas taking on Sporting Kansas City and Eastern Conference rivals Columbus and Chicago doing battle.”
Does everything need be referenced to war and battles?
