PBP: United States vs Costa Rica; 2/2/19; 3pm ET

This is light years better than the first half, and I'm glad that Berhalter let the team play out of trouble.

 

Lletget has been a big spark. Atypical confidence, dynamism, and technique for a Jan. camp.

 

CR's 1st half energy isn't quite there. US are having the upper hand.

 

Funny - Jordan Morris' first goal was assisted by a skewed Zardes touch. Mihalovic's first goal was assisted by Zardes' poor and wayward first touch. I wonder if the trend will continue....

 

There he is. A rock of a first touch followed by a wild tackle attempt. What a player.

 

like the tactical foul by zimmerman

 

13,636

 

58% possession, 11 shots to 5 and 2 on goal to only 1. We're dominating.

 

Watching Zardes is like watching Lewandowski...

 

Zimmerman's had enough of the bullshit play. Love the fire.

 

Zardes had a great run along the touch line with a square pass into the midfield that makes me cry it's so good. Tis a great pity. Zardes as a 9? That makes me cry too, because he's so bad.

Lima needs more reps so we can find his ceiling.

Roldan is having a motm performance.

 

I try to never hear words come out of Alexi Lalas’ mouth

 

Ramirez on for Zardes, who accomplished very little today.

 

There you go, Ramirez IN, Zardes OUT.

I guess at this point the Zardes Experiment is over. Right?

 

When does he ever?

 

I have my $$$ on 1-0 at the 80'. So hurry up.

 

Who actually gets the goal? Was there a second touch?

 

Lletget Goal..,

Sub him out ASAP!!

 

Lletget!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1-0!

 

There we go. It never fails.

 

I like Lewis. Immediate difference maker

 

Nope. All Lletget

 

Thank God
