El Salvador lands in Group A with Panama, Guatemala and Suriname. honestly even getting the two 2 ranked 2nd place to go to the inter playoffs is going to be hard with this group.
Jamaica got a dream group holy shit. I was expecting a bit more parity. El Salvador host three straight home games and finish on the road they need to steal points.
Ortiz being the best option is very nerve racking. Also I wonder who’s “helping out” with these call-ups I expected Nelson Blanco on the squad and he was left off completely we need defensive depth now more than ever.
The worst part is that the second place team is going to rack up a ton of goals because of Bermuda being in the group, the best hope is that there are a bunch of ties to limit how many points those teams end up with. That first game is crucial but I think that we can beat Guate away to send an early message.
Sadly it looks like Alex Larin has suffered a serious injury dude might be out for the rest of the year.
Only just realized that both Alex Roldan and Nathan Ordaz are not on the GC roster due to the CWC, this is likely to be a wasted tournament for us not having all our best pieces. Hope to at least get a good result vs Curaçao
Ordaz having to be subbed out early due to a possible concussion. Didn’t expect his own teammate to ******** him over by giving it to him.
Ngl Guate look really good right now this first half vs Jamaica, I really hope that our squad will be able to bring something to the table
Literally all we are doing is throwing long balls and hoping that Gil outruns his defenders, none of the wingers are even trying to run down the field
Level of the local league on full display, the fact they didn’t bother bringing almost anyone else abroad to challenge these guys is astounding.
Gomez is doing a bad job as head coach, this is 100% a winnable game but we are playing with zero vision and zero movement from players
He can’t trot out that starting lineup for game two because they showed nothing, Ordaz was a workhorse for the group.
Ceren bitching at the linesman over that call only to end up being easily dispossessed right after pretty much sums up the game.
Nothing positive at all this team plays at such a slow pace I don’t see how they can compete against above average nations in CONCACAF.
