I got this on DVR. USA/Cuba on ESPN2. Scoreless @ 37' Good to see some starts here.

The pitch is awful and they can't play their style.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Wondo gets us on the board first. Can he strike when it counts?

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Green makes it 2-nil.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

USA wins 2-nil. Next up is New Zealand on 10/11 @ 8 pm ET on ESPN. Then on to the Hex. Bring on Mexico!

Next weekend will be awesome; US vs Mexico followed by IU vs KU and the return of college basketball, and we take on a (likely) ranked Penn St. football team on Saturday!

Cameron hurt his knee and likely to miss both games this month. Roster out on Sunday.

since obviously we'll miss the second half because iubb takes priority, you can rewatch the full game at fullmatchesandshows.com.  definitely need an adblocker, and i'm not sure adblock plus still works there.  i use ublock origin and it's fine.  watch games on there frequently.  they post full games in mls, bundesliga, premier league, la liga, champions league, world cup, euros, copa, etc within 24 hours.  games are archived so you can search for an old game.  a couple days ago i rewatched the usmnt-paraguay game from june, for example.  it only goes back to beginning of 2015 though; i guess thats when the site was created.

green has made a compelling argument not only to get a spot but start.  wonder if he's supplanted bedoya in klinsmann's eyes, and wonder if jones will start over kjlestan, both start, or jones comes off the bench since he's only played two low-minute games since coming back from injury.  he turned 35 yesterday; the hex might be his swan song.

Roster out for Mexico and Costa Rica. Howard named #1 GK.

 

[ccgeneral 38,084]

GAMEDAY! Mexico @ 8 pm ET on FS1. Go USA!

Cold weather is our friend.     http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/national/2016/11/10/united-states-mexico-columbus-ohio-world-cup-temperature/93612292/

How low can temperature in Columbus go for USMNT?

I'll post this here. Awesome piece about Pulisic.

 

[ccgeneral 38,084]

17-Jozy Altidore, 5-Matt Besler, 4-Michael Bradley (Capt.), 6-John Brooks, 21-Timmy Chandler, 3-Omar Gonzalez, 1-Tim Howard, 

23-Fabian Johnson, 13-Jermaine Jones, 10-Christian Pulisic, 7-Bobby Wood

[ccgeneral 38,084]

I'll probably watch the 1st half and catch the 2nd on DVR after the bb game. Feel free to chime in.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Howard with a huge save!

[ccgeneral 38,084]

No dos a cero this time. Mexico strikes first @ 20'

[LIHoosier 25,974]

Klinsmann tried to get cute and implement a 3-5-2. Its NOT working. Mexico wins the ball in midfield and 5-6 guys are flying at them from all angles.

Mexico just hit the frame for a 2nd time.
