US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] (replay avail on ESPN3)

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

So what do people know about this El Salvador team? From the Concacaf website it looks like they've scored five goals in 2 games. Althought it lists their first game as a forfeit, by Haiti, which seems odd. Does anyone know what the deal is?

Thanks,

Scumby

Why is it that Womens U-17 and U-20, get all the Qualification games televised but that Men dont? With the exception of this game

This is the one for all the marbles...

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

They weren't all televised. The women's U17 & U20 qualifiers were webcast by CONCACAF on the CONCACAF site (for free). I believe there was one "match that really counted" that was televised.

I believe Koroma is the only change to the starting XI from the Panama game.

Oh God, this commentary is so awful. I feel like I'm listening to Jack Warner.

Guido out of nothing;

Goal Guido! 1-0 USA! 5th minute.

Great chance for ES.

Goal USA 1-0 by Alejandro Guido. Unmarked header on a cross.

quality cross by Amon

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

3' US narrowly avoid getting scored on with a 3-2.

4' Goal Guido Header. to the US off a deep throw in and cross.

Impressive that Panama beat Costa Rica. Anyone know the story behind that one?

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

All tied up now.

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

1-1 As everything good for ES is ending up through the right flank of the US.

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

That's the second time the backline has been easily beat by a through ball.

1-1.

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

8' El Salvador scores. The US is giving up way too much room between the CB and midfield 1-1

What's going on at right back...

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

The right back for the U.S. is terrible. 2nd time he's lost his man completely.

 

Re: US vs El Salvador U17 WCQ Round of 8 2/22/11 [R] Pre-PBP-Post

Who's playing right back for the US? He should stop getting smoked.
