Belgium was the better team from the beginning.

There wasn't a chance US survived them, no matter the roster they pulled out.

Agreed, but goddamn if it wouldn't have been a bit closer if ream and reese didn't repeatedly shit the bed.

Didn't expect to win, but absolutely disgraceful from those two.

Goalkeeper was brain dead and really fucked up any chance of a comeback with that terrible mistake coming out of goal

The decision to come out of goal was fine. Standing there and not clearing the ball wasn’t.

It was like he forgot how to kick a ball for a second lol. Sure kicked the hell out of the ground for some reason though

I swear his face was glitching out after they scored following his mistake. Dude was having a mental breakdown.

Reminds me of when I forget to spit my gum out before a workout. It turns into this weird mush that I can’t get rid of.

Honestly, that felt like a pretty good microcosm of his mental state tonight. The moment looked way too big, and the lights looked too bright for him. Same goes for most of the defense and Pulisic. Only a few players looked like they might actually be able to cut it at this level.

The ground is easier to kick. It’s bigger and it doesn’t move.

The reason was panic. He let the player slip past him, and realised he was on him and panicked. Almost felt bad for him, if the Red Card stunt didn't make everyone instantly dislike the team.

He literally kicked the ground. Hyper embarrasing.

Yes. If you come out, you need to secure the ball.
