USMNT’s future begins to take shape as pair of friendlies approach

0 comments by

Don’t let anyone tell you that all friendlies are meaningless. That’s especially not the case for the United States men’s national team and it’s hope of competing at the heights of the international soccer world. It also is do-or-die time for manager Jurgen Klinsmann and his future with the national side. Klinsmann’s side will take […]

This morning, the NASL’s Tampa Bay Rowdies announced that they had fired highly popular manager Thomas Rongen after a start of 2-1-5 in the Fall season. Rongen was instrumental in signing Freddy Adu with hopes of finally turning his career around after so much hype as a teenager. Rongen was the USMNT U-20 manager and […]

Panama outlasts USMNT for 3rd place, Beasley ends USMNT career not converting PK

It was more like a game to forget. The USMNT lost to Panama 3-2 in penalty kicks in the third place game of the CONCACAF Gold Cup. This was a game that Jurgen Klinsmann yesterday wanted to finish on a high note and “owing it to the fans” to play well and win, did anything […]

Why the USMNT will take the CONCACAF Gold Cup third place game seriously

0 comments by on 7/24/2015

What does a third place game mean to you as a fan? Your team, whether a favorite or underdog, just came within a game of making it to the championship game and now have to play a final game knowing a win here won’t be as satisfying as a win in the championship. That reality […]

Jurgen Klinsmann Shouldn’t Be Fired After Gold Cup, But He Should Be On the Hot Seat

0 comments by on 7/23/2015

Look, after seeing the USMNT lose to Jamaica in the Gold Cup Semifinals, I was pissed off. I kind of still am, but now that there has been time since the 2-1 final, I have been able to rationally analyze if Jurgen Klinsmann should or shouldn’t be fired as USMNT manager. Since the World Cup […]

The Gold Cup Semifinal Became the Most CONCACAF Night Ever

0 comments by

What the hell did we watch last night? In the CONCACAF Gold Cup Semifinals, first, the USMNT decided to lose (and deservedly so) to the 76th ranked team in the world Jamaica. Then we had a complete dumpster fire of a game between Panama and Mexico. First, the USMNT/Jamaica game became quite the shock for […]

It may have been against Cuba and Cuba wasn’t at their best with only 18 members still on the team, but the USMNT put in a complete performance in their 6-0 win against Cuba. The win puts the United States into the Semifinals as they look to go against Jamaica after they beat Haiti 1-0 […]

VIDEO: Golazo By Aron Johannsson Makes it 3-0 USMNT in Gold Cup

0 comments by

This CONCACAF Gold Cup Quarterfinal game between the USMNT and Cuba has gone from Cuba getting an outside chance go get back into the game to being hopelessly out of reach. Aron Johannsson received the LONG pass from Michael Bradley, taking advantage of the issues from the Cuban backline. Johannsson got behind and, while goalkeeper […]

The USMNT got off to a fast start against Cuba in the CONCACAF Gold Cup Quarterfinals. Two goals were scored in a span of 15 minutes as Clint Dempsey and Gyasi Zardes exploited the Cuban back line to score a couple of rather clinical goals. Here is Dempsey’s goal in the 4th minute assisted by […]

Three points and advance — that was the task at hand for the United States men’s national team on Friday night against CONCACAF minnow Haiti. With a 1-0 win over the Haitians, the USMNT took all three points and claimed the top spot in Group A. Mission Accomplished. But, just because the result was positive […]

What to Make of the USMNT After Their First Gold Cup Game

0 comments by on 7/8/2015

I watched the USMNT play Honduras play last night in the first game of the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup and I was admittedly a bit confused in terms of how to rate this team. Yes, they won 2-1 but it was a very sloppy game that was helped by the inconsistent referee in charge of […]
