More to the point, why award the game to it?Crazy that a modern stadium would be built without being able to accommodate a FIFA-regulation surface.
That stadium isn't very far off The Strip, don't think they had much extra room to make it any larger than it is.Crazy that a modern stadium would be built without being able to accommodate a FIFA-regulation surface.
Somebody's def gotta try for an Olimpico on this pitchSo corners are gonna be extra interesting with this shorter field.
Also: Turner!
Hilarious…rough estimate on number of Mexican fans that showed?I remember going to the 2017 final at the 49ers stadium, which was supposed to be US-Mexico until El Tri choked away the semifinal to Jamaica. The crowd was a mix of no-shows and Mexico fans that came out to boo the US anyways.
Wouldn’t be CONCACAF if something didn’t happen to give us like 8min of first half stoppage time.
Hope Williamson is okay.
glad to see they’re taking head trauma seriously. At least in this moment.Wouldn’t be CONCACAF if something didn’t happen to give us like 8min of first half stoppage time.

Probably 10K or so. Certainly more Mexico fans there than Jamaican ones.Hilarious…rough estimate on number of Mexican fans that showed?
Love it.Probably 10K or so. Certainly more Mexico fans there than Jamaican ones.
The other thing that seems weird looking back is the final was mid-week. I remember my nephew and I heading there after work, killing a 6 pack on CalTrain from SF to the light rail transfer station, about a 45 minute trip or so.
It’s a mindset.Mexico is going to have like 80% possession tonight. I guess I knew that, but it’s annoying to see it unfold.
I’ve seen Mexico kick our asses. It doesn’t look like 0 - 0 41 minutes in.The is is an ass kicking. Good guys need to get it together
Adidas likes screwing with their kits as much as Nike does with ours.This may have been brought up prior - but wtf are these purple kits? Why not green
Sometimes it looks like the US up a goal or two in the first halfI’ve seen Mexico kick our asses. It doesn’t look like 0 - 0 41 minutes in.
I’m not sure if we’ve been decent albeit outgunned or if I just have Matt Turner Madness right now.
