    Mexico completely dominates Canada and wins 2-0. The game wasn't as close as the score line.

    Canada misses a penalty, because we're Canada.

    Being at home gives you the opportunity to have home field advantage .

    I didn't refer to home field advantage, I talking about all the fans the players had behind them, and how would you know there was only 10 fans? Weres you at the game?

    This roster isn't beating anyone (besides a short handed Panama)

    Good luck in the olympics!

    In what way? You've been making some good posts lately, but this one just seems dumb.

    Did you watch the game? They showed the stands, looked about 10 fans or so.

    Bro you're at home , on a weekend , in a big city .

    How do these fact not give you the opportunity to have home field advantage ?
    Notice I said the opportunity , not the expectation , after all it's not the main team & not even "America's team" can seat 1,000 .

    Fine, I'll grant you that there was an opportunity. Salt Lake's not a big city, by the way. Actually, its pretty small.

    Ha yea. At least at the end of the day Sabo got to play in Europe, despite it being some averagish clubs.

    Elis this summer had Everton and Cardiff interested in him, but a bad U-20 WC made them think twice, but with a good Olympics and some cameos with the NT, he'll spark their interest again.

    MLS is where career and skills go to die, look at practically the whole US team and Gio.

    The Salt Lake City-Ogden-Provo radio market has about 50 percent more people than the most recent Caribbean country to qualify for the World Cup, Trinidad and Tobago.

    Yeah and then we'll buy a new striker for 5% of the price and who knows where the rest of the money goes...

    In their defense, Nahuelpan was actually one of the best investments we've made since the golden era.

    It's the 29th biggest radio market, the 33rd biggest TV market (according to http://www.stationindex.com/tv/tv-markets), and one of 27 markets in the USA with an NBA team. According to a separate Wikipedia list of biggest metropolitan areas, Salt Lake City is 27th. The city populations and metropolitan area populations have some big differences. San Antonio is the 7th biggest city and the 31st biggest metropolitan area.

    There was justice, the 2 best teams played the final and won the best team.

    I'm still thinking the biggest problem in catrachos players are the discipline. When they fix it will be the most complicated team in Concacaf for Mexico.

    Yea, it was disgusting to watch these Honduran kids play so reckless. They mix too much emotion into their game and it ends up leading to a lot of stupid decisions and clouded judgements.

    One day... lol and when that day comes, the world will end.

    It was a clear HFA, there were more usnt fans in the stands than Catrach fans, and more importantly, in that town. The usnt players were surrounded by people like them going to and from the hotel, in the hotel, restaurants they patronized or malls, stores or wherever they went during the tourney. Meanwhile, the Catrachos would be lucky to see anyone else like them in their walkabouts, they clearly felt like they were in a foreign land. That makes a huge psychological difference, especially among youth players. A level of comfort you can't replace that your team enjoyed and the opposition did not. So even with this tangible advantage your team had, they still got pwnt 2-0. Terrible.

    GOAL Nigeria hahahha Go Unak :thumbsup:

    lol Pulisic was all hype

    2-0 Nigeria HAHAHAHAHA. And us97 was saying the usnt u17s were good, lol.
