      @rockchalkjayhawk I hope he can show something but I don't see it. This next round is a sign for real progress from usmnt. The tournament would be a success if they make the quarters

      Progress would be nice! I don’t have high expectations from here on out. A win vs the Belgium team that has had our number doesn’t seem likely, but who knows. The team seems to be on a run.

      Wish Flo was available! Grr.

      Of course it’s pretty easy to argue none of this WC run makes any sense at all after Poch’s oddball approach to the games running up to the World Cup. Crazy lineups, no team chemistry.

      Maybe his genius plan is working and beyond my cognitive abilities. Good for him.

      Two of my all time favorite players lineup with Belgium — De Bruyne and Lukaku.

        I was always told when you foul someone from behind it's a red card. That's why our guy got the red card.

          @wissox83 like many things in sports it doesn't always play out correctly per the rules. Paraguay should have had a ton of yellow cards yesterday

            I’m seeing headlines the Balogun had his red card lifted and he can play?????

            Edit: it’s true!!!!!!!!!! Awesome.

                      ha. that was pretty much what i thought happened.
                      Disgusting, but fitting with FIFA.

                        If whether FIFA was corrupt was ever in doubt.

                              Wow! What a game that was! Easier to root against than for arch rival Mexico, I guess.

                              But having more CONCACAF teams in the mix would have been a good thing.

                              If you didn’t catch it, watch it. Crazy.

                                @rockchalkjayhawk It was an action packed game, very entertaining. MX had never lost a game in this stadium,

                                  I am not sure how to feel about this one.

                                    This taints anything the US accomplishes tonight. Irony is Balogun is a birthright citizen.

                                      Yeah. Whether we win or lose this is a bad look.

                                        @AsadZ Trump had nothing to with Balogun's red card being suspended. The process had already begun and it's really done is expose FIFA for not having a legitimate process to appeal red cards during the World Cup that they allow for pretty much other tournament they sanction.

                                          All the good will we earned from around the world these last 2 weeks was wiped out by this atrocious turnaround. The world hates us now more than ever and only us in the United States will be rooting for us. Just sickens me.

                                            @RockChalkinTexas-0 Actually, I'm still rooting for Cape Verde. I will be sending a note to Trump suggesting he get FIFA to make CV a wild card advancer.
