Zusi has been amazing at free kicks for the USMNT...until Portugal game started. No clue what has happened. He seems to be floating them instead of driving them for some reason. Maybe a gameplan??

Also, WTF is up with Bradley. He was arguably a top 10 CM in the world about 6 months ago. Looks like he is scared shitless at this WC, which makes no sense since he was around in 2010 and was pretty fucking clutch.

Jones is on a yellow, right? Maybe take him out if things are looking good.

Not yet, but at some point. Also, Gonzalez has to be out around the 60' mark if Germany is still dominating the ball in our half. Cannot afford a RC today.

Assuming Cameron is out, since he didnt start, Id expect us to see Brooks in pretty soon for Gonzalez. Jones will probably play the hwole game, unless we somehow take the lead (I assume Klinsman isnt full of shit and wants to win...in which case, Jones plays).

Probably see someone like Bedoya come in to help the MF defensively. Though, Zusi has been pretty damn good in his 1-1 the last 1.5 games, so maybe you dont make that change.

All in all, great half. Weathered a terrible opening 10', but then started to see the ball and looked dangerous, which was key as it really caused Germnay to take the foot off the gas a bit in fear of giving up a goal and losing the group. Keep it at 0-0 another 15', see where the other game is at, and decide (as the clock winds down) if you want to settle for 2nd or go for the group win (where a lose wont hurt us, anyway...)

Ill still take Zusi. He is usually money, and we will need him moving forward. Set-pieces are how will likely make a run.

If the US can't tie or win this and they fail to advance, you know damn well who'll shoulder most of the blame.

Disagree with darke about that Ghana goal being good news. They score another one, we are out.

Agreed. Need Portugal to punch another in.
