FINAL: #USWNT 8, JAM 1. CONCACAF Championship continues March 6 with USA vs. MEX at 2:30 p.m. ET on FOX Sports Go and FOX Soccer Plus.— U.S. Soccer YNT (@USYNT) March 4, 2016 Frankie Tagliaferri scored 4 goals after entering in the 70th.
Yeeeesssssssss!!!! Penn State commit. I've recorded the match and will be posting to Youtube later today.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to actually watch the recording I posted earlier until Saturday evening, and noticed that there was a problem with the quality of the stream from the 75' minute onward. Therefore, I'm now uploading a better, shorter version (i.e., without commercials, as they get tagged as copyrighted content) to my youtube channel. It should be available in a few hours in HD (youtube takes a while to convert the videos).

61' 0-0 #14 Kuhlmann momentarily dispossessed at 15m mid-left, ball skitters loose to 10m. Kuhlmann hops over that tackle, pounces first to ball, hop-shot over 2nd slide tackle and left foot rocket shot to left post low -- GK dives and smothers. Ball leaks through, rolls across mouth at 1m 1/3 left, Mexico #14 twist-sweeps it wide right. Kuhlmann in 2014 was a skinny pixie, in 2016 she looks more like a linebacker 71' 1-0 #9 Kiara Pickett serves from 25m box left into box mid-left. #10 Ashley Sánchez has an acute in her name!! She runs on, hops over GK #1 Kelsey Brann's slide-try, left flick volley easily lobs her into the empty net. Then Brann's momentum undercuts Sánchez's plant-foot, Sánchez lands hard and stays down in tears. Stoppage, trainers emerge, all others get water and some instruction. 74' 1-0 Sánchez resumes. Hurt her chest/shoulder trying to brace that landing?
90+3'? (of +4') 1-0 Mexico fk(?) to 6-top right post, lunge-header just misses, but ball continues untouched to the trailing defender -- replay shows she pulled left forearm down just-in-time, ball glances off her left torso/thigh. No handball, ball beats #1 Laurel Ivory's dive, off right post , bounces straight out to 1.5m. Mexico scuff a shot into a torso lying prone, but foul. FT 1-0. That was tough.
I just uploaded the following match to youtube. Give it time, if you want to see it in 720p. USA vs Mexico - CONCACAF U-17 WWC Qualifying (Mar 06, 2016)
[Canada - Haiti] to win Group A. It's ... 77' 1-0 Sarah Stratigakis 81' 1-1 Mikerline Saint Felix 84' 1-1 Nerilla Mondesir fouled in box by Kennedy Faulknor, pk! 84' 1-2 Shelsie Dacius, pk 90+2' (of +4') 1-2 Haiti making a sub. USA-Canada semifinal looms
90+4' (of +4') 1-2 Canada frantic soft cross to spot, awkward header away. Shana Flynn chests it upward at arc tangent right, half-volley to goalmouth center, GK Proulx catches and smothers. FT 1-2. Haiti rising like a phoenix! 9+15 (+18-03) A1.Haiti (vs. B2) 6+09 (+11-02) A2.Canada (vs. B1) 0-04 (+02-06) Guatemala (vs. Grenada) 0-20 (+00-20) Grenada
A reminder that the winner of the 3rd place match also advances to the U17 WC Finals. No extra time. 90 minutes and then PKs if the match is tied.

I'm going to record and upload it to Youtube, but I won't finish with it until late tonight (Tuesday). Here's a link to my Youtube Playlist of CONCACAF U-17 Qualifying matches: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUbTVyojaE6FkWjgxoKJuacBNCYV4sir- .
Thanks. I missed the promo code. I chalk it up to the ussoccer.com re(mis)design. I don't think the pre-match article for the Jamaica was on the front page or at least for long enough for me to find it. The preview article for today's Costa Rica match is the first I noticed. Each new website generation contains less content for old schoolers surfing the web via computer as the designers focus on smart (makes you dumb) phone users. $10 for a one month subscription to Fox Soccer 2Go that I didn't need to spend.
Agree totally! I would rather read than listen. I wish they would separate all the videos from the "old-fashioned" articles so that I don't have to deal with the slower load time, ads, etc.
