Any guesses on the Guatemalan lineup? Here's my guess on what the US will throw out: ---------------------Hahnemann --Albright-------Conrad--------Marshall---------Vanney ---------------------Mastroeni --Quaranta----------------------------------Convey -----------------------Donovan -------------Twellman--------------Cunningham -It's possibe that Donovan sits and only subs in if needed. If so then Dempsey starts.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion ------------------------------------KLEE-------------------------- selvyn Ponacio----pablo Melgar-------Gustavo Carbrera------Angel sanabria ----Figeroa-----Freddy Thomson-----gonzalo Romero-----pando ramirez --------------------------Freddy Garcia--------------------- -------------------------Mario Acevedo----------------------------- 4-4-1-1 if ruiz is still suspended , i think there still appealing
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion i think it'd be a crime to start donovan in this match. give the guy a break.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion Mario Acevedo has been excellent in GNL i think in better scoring form then pezzarossi(injured) hasnt played for guatemala since the friendly in guatemala Vs trinidad were guatemala won 4-1 in 2004 Better threat than the Crafty plata should fill the ruiz viod
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion CABRERA is gonna start again???? , after how poorly he played against trinidad & tobacco???
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion He was poor on only one play the second And Third were Selyvn ponacio fault even thought they were offside
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion and Acevedo hasnt scored since playing against Barbados in 2002 WCQ with the national team, but im looking forward to him doing that wednesday night against the US. He's good enough to do it.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion I would feel better if Guate had Ruiz... I hope and pray that Guate will be able to escape with three points and make 20 wutever thousand fans at mateo flores and millions of others go CRAZY!!! 2-1 GUA
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion Right, one play where Lattapy took the ball 15 yards uncontested by the midfield straight at Cabrera who was in the box as the last man. You can't point fingers at him simply because he got beaten in the box when the midfield made no effort to pressure T&T as they moved forward with the ball. Further, Cabrera wasn't even on the field for the 2nd and 3rd goal since he had a cut that had opened and was sent off the field by the official in order to get cleaned up. I have to imagine that 2 goals in the short period of his absence should suggest something about how important he is to keeping that backline in order.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion now tell me something...why would you guys play defensively at home against the US. You are in a must-win and would play 4-4-1-1? That makes no sense whatsoever......home teams must win their home games if they wanna advance to the world cup
It is being reported that Cabrera will miss this game: https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=6049963&postcount=44
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion primitivo has lost it we have to win and he is putting one striker, no wonder we lost in trinidad the guy is a moron, i hope we win its gonna be tough but who knows, i only thank God demarcus beasley isnt coming the guy wouldve tored us apart, im gonna be at the stadium in a life/death situation for us.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion this is how we should play: klee ponciano------------melgar--------------morales-----------sanabria figueroa------------giron----------------romero------------fredy garcia --------------------villatoro------------acevedo------------------------
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion Guatemala is an embarrasment to themselfs they have no one to blame for their dismal performance other than them selfs they have thrown away the important games and how in hell they lost to an inferior trinidad is beyond me... The US game will be another lost cause after that game the Head Coach will finally be fired a head coach that is not good regardless of what republica deportiva says.. this guy has always been a loser and the ax will finally fall on this soul who has been begging to be fired... US with an all MLS cast will walk away with the victory and guatemala will ponder on lost oportunity gone by... Guatemala has the most difficult schedual US mexico and then Costa Rica... Guatemala will not even finish in 4th... a sad and pathetic trinidad will finish 4th and with gods will a huge justice will take place in the WC playoff and trinidad will be eliminated........
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion And based on your analysis why is TT inferior. They beat Guates and their inferior. what is so sad if tha Reds finish in 4th place. you are a hater...you almost sound like a clone of that dumbass guat named Gffuball
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion thats because TT is no better than us , still inferior to us, thats why u struggled to win at home.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion Actually it's impossible to say that either GUA or T&T is superior or inferior to each other....historically GUA is better, but, history does not count in soccer games!
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion Yeah, last I saw they were tied on points with three tough natches to go and only Guatemala's advantage in the first tie breaker gettig them to 4th place.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion I believe the US will win.. but we will see what happens..
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion Guatemala is gonna win, if we lose against a US "B" team at home, then we dont deserve to be in a WC.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion US might send a B team, but after beating Mexico Im sure they want to stay at #1 and try and get a good seed for the WC.., so they probably will send their A squad or half and half
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion anyway US's B squad is not that bad, i mean, they have good players too, and think this> Those B players are fighting for a spot in the A team, so they'll play at their max.
Re: WCQ- Guatemala - USA Pre/During/Post Match Discussion these players didnt go to Guatemala: bealsley, keller, mcbride, lewis, bocanegra, ojewu, reyna , and maybe others. USA arrived yesterday to Guatemala City , and didnt even care to practice the first day. La Selección estadounidense de fútbol arribó a eso de las 16: 30 horas a Guatemala. Los norteamericanos no atendieron a la prensa nacional al momento de llegar al país, asegurando que tampoco se entrenarán hoy en tierras guatemaltecas.
