U-20 World Cup going on right now.

Germany not faring well in their group so far with only 1 game left to play.

USA opened with a 3:3 tie in group play.

Saw that. They need a really good result and some help to make it through.

Germany u20 only won by one, which I believe drops them out of the tournament on goal difference

Just realized Germany is still in it. Figured there would be more 3rd place teams in the groups with a better score.

Yeah I was surprised. Well, they get another shot to make up for their poor performance so far

Well I don't know what the USA calls that tactical game plan, but I call it utter garbage. Like watching a 6th division team play Bayern.

"Lets sit everyone deep back on our side, and when we get the ball, kick it as far forward as we possibly can. Who knows, maybe Mexico will let our one forward up there just have the ball and walk with it to the goal!"

No attempt at all to build up play. Just kick it forward, kick it forward, kick it forward...

Yeah not an Arena fan. Didn't like the hire, haven't been thrilled in the games since either. USA could have won that game with a halfway decent strategy. The lineup for the night was strange too.

Don't you know? They didn't like Jurgen's "European Style of Play". :poop:

The announcer in the Mexico v New Zealand game made reference to the Franz Beckenbauer dislocated shoulder game back in the 70's. I googled it to find out what he was praising. Wow! True heroics.
