A very American perspective. What’s good for the USA is good for the world.

What a great goal
Now script is flipped and Iran must score. Be interesting to see how play changes

Kind of opposite of what he said though. What's good for growing the game in North America is good for the game in North America.

This game (USA/Iran) makes me really annoyed with FIFA rankings and how long it takes to climb. Canada (IMO) should have been higher up and landed in a more favourable group. We finish top in Concacaf, we should be ranked top in Concacaf.

Haha, now Canada is grouped in. Canada’s growth is doing just fine & exclusively, without the success of the Americans.

These tournaments are all about riding the hot hand.. see someone like gakpo on fire at the right time you ride him.


I know his second game wasnt amazing but how england has benched their leading scorer saka is just beyond me. Lighting it up at his club I dunno how rashford beats him out for a spot especially with Kane out of form. And... surprise... no goals.

Haha nice rashford. I need to start trash talking ppl in my fantasy team now. Lesson learned is you don't second guess Southgate even if it looks like he's made a dumb move

Lol at Bellingham celebrating before Foden even kicks it.

Also for England I think the squad changes were more about resting some guys and getting some different looks in what’s a short tournament. Not sure we see this lineup in the first knockout game.

Has to be foden on the left

Sterling has been out of form for a long time

Foden and Saka, or in a world where the best team is picked, foden and graelish with Saka in mounts place

Canada losing 2 of their final 3 matchdays put them into pot 4.

Rashford over Grealish for me. His linkups with Shaw, keep Foden on the right, agreed on Mount.
