Just tuned in. How is the game itself going, apart from the ref?

In the last 15 at least, US looks better but running out of ideas in the final third. Some dangerous counters from Canada though.

Holy shit. A referee immediately took a ball to the face in the first minute and and the game has been stopped for several minutes for medical attention.

Welcome to CONCACAF lmao

Dang, missed that. Gonna keep an eye out for replays. Amazing.

Pretty sure it's a federal offense for a West Point cadet to play for Canada, LOL.

A little murderball to end the half there from the Canadians. Looking forward to a US power play.

Also tuning in late. Surprised to see the score, I thought USMNT would be up by now 🤷‍♂️

Last fifteen minutes looked good, players ready to fight already 😅

Big feelings on the pitch today

Jesus, US lucky to get away with that, but if you want VAR to get a handball, gotta risk VAR revealing your own fouls in the box.

Energy level finally better after the US subs.

US playing with fire. Bad turnover, iffy almost-backpass.

LOL, a dick measuring contest.

When I saw the US playing St. Kitts and Nevis I just yeah… totally. Its interesting sure but is there any point or comparison being made in this match up?

Not sure I follow. I made that comment when the two teams were pointlessly posturing over who would retreat to the proper distance first so the penalty shoot-out could begin.

In case you’re not a football/soccer fan, the games themselves are part of the Gold Cup, the continental championship for North and Central America, including the Caribbean.
