Duh. That was dumb on my part. Wasn’t thinking. I meant Paraguay.
Between drawing with us in a friendly and drawing with Costa Rica, I'm not sure if Brazil is "Brazil" these days.
Back to back draws with CONCACAF opponents doesn't scream one of the top teams in the world. Honestly we'll probably be better off playing Brazil in the knockout stages than Columbia.
I really doubt they could return to the flashy dribbling of yesteryear against the more disciplined defenders of today. If they could than one of the top European clubs would sign a bunch of flashy dribblers and dominate Europe with them.
It may just be a case of lack of team spirit with the national team since they are now mostly living all over Europe.
Honestly that's something I'm worried about with the USMNT. Because I fear the more we increase our talent pool and have players with increasingly successful club careers, the less team spirit the national team will have.
I think that's been England's problem for a very long time.
Upset alert! Canada up 1-0 over Peru on a BEAUTIFUL counterattack goal and pinpoint finish off the post.
Canada wins. Their first ever Copa America victory. Let’s hope this CONCACAF train keeps rolling.

So THAT'S what that sound was, LOL. My son was watching the COPA and I heard that GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAL. Wow, what a shot!
MEXICO is UPSET! Venezuela takes it 1-0 to move on to the quarterfinals! Even with the dumbest player in the box on Earth, former Chicago Fire defender Miguel Navarro, giving up his patented late penalty.
Also, Venezuela have the most MLS experience on a roster outside of Canada. The good performances of those two nations so far is good for the league.

I very much enjoyed watching Mexico get beat 
The CONCACAF train can always jump tracks when it comes to Mexico. I would love for Ecuador to knock them out.*
*as long as we advance of course.
Well. Defensive passing is already garbage and almost gave up a goal.
And now Tim Weah now might be red carded.

We go up 1. VAR takes it away due to offsides.
Turner gets smoked. Down for 4 minutes. No card.
Weah makes a STUPID decision and we are down to 10 men for probably 85 minutes because we have hardly played at all.

He was a complete idiot. Panama should have gotten at least a yellow for taking out Turner though. They should have had about two other yellows as well. Weah didn't need to help the refs out, it's clear they are trying to CONCACAF the US in this game.
Really dumb of Weah in a game in which we need at least a draw.
No way this is a PK. Dude should be carded for taking a dive.
It’s sad to watch us get out-coached and out-played by Panama by a second time in a row. I can forgive the first time, but this is sad from Berhalter.
I don't think they've been outcoached. What more was he supposed to do when one of his players sticks his head firmly up his own ass? You can't predict that.
This is on Weah. You can't do something that stupid in these games.
It’s stupid crap like this that makes me consistently annoyed with the men’s team. Granted, it means the game I’m going to on Monday a pretty big game.
When you get out-possessed this badly, even with 10, after being embarrassed by this same team, that’s on Berhalter. Especially considering he decided to play bunker ball way too early.
We are SOOO undisciplined! Pulisic, you TOO with this shiz!!! I get you are angry, but THINK!
We are a joke and Berhalter is not the answer.
