OK, I don't really care, but there was like 5 minutes stoppage there, and 2 minutes of play. But whatever. Let's go.

So do they get to do this every game? And it's Phase One every time? Because the same shit happened on Thursday.

They are going to cancel the game until tomorrow if Mexico keeps chanting that? They going to do that in the WC?

It's all window dressing until they bar Mexico from hosting games, remove ticket allotments, etc.

Edit: And a fan just invaded CBS' set. Dempsey looked ready to put him down. Outstanding.

Get Robinson on because I don't have a lot of faith in Acosta back there.
We get a bonus sub for extra time right? If so, I think you want to save it in case someone starts cramping later on, or to bring in on a good PK taker at the very end.

Looks like Cannon on for Yedlin, which means McKennie is going to have to stay in the game a bit hobbled. That play makes me nervous, it was non-contact.

So, this has been going on for years? What a bunch of assholes.

On another subject, I watch a ton of EPL, and man this game seems a lot more frenetic and chaotic than those matches. I am mildly proud of myself as a casual American soccer fan to finally notice obvious differences in style of soccer play.

Well, we got RBs.

Like the shift Yedlin put in today. The old head has a role to play still.

Herrera should be off.

That's a pretty orange tackle there. Ref is determined to not send someone off (at least, not someone in magenta and black).

What an absolute joke that Herrera got zero yellows for that or for his hands-on-neck incident

Lanez is able to pick up the ball every time down the pitch. He needs more attention.
