DP had good numbers tonight against the Wizards even though his team didn't win
https://x.com/i/status/2075417402662126068

I watched this one to check out the hype. DP was ok. He was bumped and defended hard all game. Made a few nice shots. One from way deep at the buzzer! He was sloppy though. Same issue tonight we saw at KU? Didn’t pass well out of a double team or when pressed. Looks like teams have decided to push him around, see how he reacts. One very dumb reaction when blatantly pushed — he got frustrated and got caught shoving a dude.

AJ looked pretty good. Crowd liked him.

Oh, and way to go, Trump. A little motivation goes a long way

After the final whistle blew, Belgium soccer's official X account published a post with an image of their players celebrating alongside a two-word caption: "Overturn this."

yea, that was ugly.

Played like high school kids up against Argentina. Something wasn't right. They played scared and tentative. Basic errors as @wissox83 said.

Player ratings are gonna be ugly.

Generally an embarrassment today. sigh.

No, we have not. Sadly they aren’t giving us much hope. They looked overmatched by a lot.

But, only down 1 goal. I was surprised we came out in the 3-5-2. That worked against Paraguay when we knew they were gonna bunker down and not attack. Not so much so far vs Belgium.

Ugh. We may lose by 50 goals.
Not pretty so far. US guys running into each other. Giving the ball away. Not defending. Double ugh.

Turn it around, boys!

Wow! What a game that was! Easier to root against than for arch rival Mexico, I guess.

But having more CONCACAF teams in the mix would have been a good thing.

If you didn’t catch it, watch it. Crazy.

@RockChalkinTexas-0 Turns out Trump privately asked FIFA to review the suspension. Makin' 'merica proud before the world!

ha. that was pretty much what i thought happened.
Disgusting, but fitting with FIFA.

Erling Haaaaaaalaaaand

Dude just needs one touch. Gooooaall!

I’m seeing headlines the Balogun had his red card lifted and he can play?????

Edit: it’s true!!!!!!!!!! Awesome.

@BShark said in World Cup:

@rockchalkjayhawk I hope he can show something but I don't see it. This next round is a sign for real progress from usmnt. The tournament would be a success if they make the quarters

Progress would be nice! I don’t have high expectations from here on out. A win vs the Belgium team that has had our number doesn’t seem likely, but who knows. The team seems to be on a run.

Wish Flo was available! Grr.

Of course it’s pretty easy to argue none of this WC run makes any sense at all after Poch’s oddball approach to the games running up to the World Cup. Crazy lineups, no team chemistry.

Maybe his genius plan is working and beyond my cognitive abilities. Good for him.

Two of my all time favorite players lineup with Belgium — De Bruyne and Lukaku.

I read a Furphy update the other day. this wasn't it, but a start:

Kelly Oubre article if anybody is interested. Discusses his fit with the Pacers.

@mayjay said in World Cup:

@rockchalkjayhawk Yeah, wouldn't it be fun to watch basketball or (our) football if a player was considered out of bounds when any part of his body was outside the line? None of those fun shots falling out of bounds...no reaching back to hit the pylon while helicoptering outside the goal line... Anything requiring super slo mo to detect should be eliminated. Just like the PGA eliminated penalties where the only person to see an infraction was a so-called fan calling in to think he would become an important part of the game.

What a tale of two halves between Croatia and Portugal

Boring first half but very thrilling second one

Really tough ending for Croatia.

I officially hate any offsides calls now. It's evolved to dog shit. They just cannot get it right.

The rule should simply be If a guy has his feet positioned even or on the midfield side of the defender, he's onside.

Now it's his head, ass and who knows what else that makes him offside!!! hate it. simplify and give the edge to the offense.

@BShark said in World Cup:

And yeah that red card was horse shit. The fall off to Pepi for the Belgium game is a real killer. He suuuucks.

I like a couple of skills Pepi has. He is typically perfect for Poch's pressing style. He attacks and tries to suffocate defenses after a turnover so they can't push the ball forward. Very good at that. hustler. He can score as well.

He's not crazy skilled like one of the superstar forwards in the world, but he makes things happen one way or the other.

But yea, he's no Flo!

Weird. Dude's a pro. If they pass the Protect College Sports Act this summer, will he still be able to play?

College sports is just silly now.

USA! Victory. that's nice, especially with that red card. I was watching from afar, so it wasn't clear to me it was deserved. Seemed like he was stumbling and there was no intent?
