    Look on the bright side, you just have to pummel the New Zealanders. Keep the game vs Munich respectable and there is still a chance. You’ll know exactly what you have to do vs Auckland.’

    But when Boca went up 2-0, I said, this is far from over. In many ways, the game being held in Miami was gonna put a bit more pressure on Boca since it was basically a home game. They had to turn it on for the fans. Now, I do wonder if the players are gonna go out and party and make a fool out of themselves in South Beach. Let’s see!

    Of course Otamendi’s candy ads had to win the penalty and score. Scaloni is probably nodding and clapping thinking he’s doing the right thing calling him up.

    And seeing Chiqui Mafia sitting with Baggio and other legends. This dude had to have sold his soul to the devil.

    Yeah it's basically a goal difference competition now. Maybe Benfica gets smacked harder by Bayern and doesn't score as much against Auckland.

    What's even worst is that he actually scores more goals this season (8 goals) than our attackers Nico and Giu.

    I hope Inter and River will beat Monterrey big time.

    It's expanding next year, at the end of the day the clubs will go where the money is and there is a lot of money on offer. I've enjoyed it so far, Boca v Benfica was a cracking game.

    That game was 3pm on a Monday, and Atlanta fans weren't going to watch LAFC. Heck LAFC fans didn't even know they were going to play in this until 2 weeks ago due to FIFAs random nonsense throwing out Leon last minute and taking forever to decide who would take their place and how. This tournament will always have a few duds when you have to schedule less popular teams at weird times. I think the real test are the knockouts.

    Boca with a brilliant effort in the first half and controlled most of the match but let it slip through their hands courtesy of...Otamendi.
    He ain't going nowhere! :D:D:D

    On a more serious note, where would you say Lomonaco is currently in the pecking order behind Balerdi?

    Colidio the former Tigre player scores for River.

    Nice job by Mastantuono carrying the ball that led to goal.

    Anyone watching River v Urawa? River playing well, dominating. South America is showing up for this tournament so far. Does Masta always play this wide?

    Lol funny you say that.. River fans are having a stroke right now with how bad River is playing

    As for Masta, yes, Gallardo typically tends to use him wide like that on the flanks, but he’ll cut in to the middle every now and then

    Classic Japanese defending/keeping blunder

    Not sure that goal was worth the Driussi injury

    Lol if we have to play the rest of the tournament with Borja up front, we’re ********ed

    I mean Driussi is no Messi, but if you have to rely on just Colibri:confused:

    Well, it's the first match between a South American and an Asian club so you never know how things will go. But so far SA is doing well against Europe so not surprising.

    I liked Masta more when he moved centrally near the end of the first half.

    Penalty didn't affect Boca's chances so Armani couldn't stop it

    It boggles the mind that Meza was a starter for the seleccion.

    River completely lost control of the mid in the 2nd half. Let's see what Gallardo does.
