This game was even worse to me because a lot of the players just seemed to give up when the going got tough and they didn’t know where to go with the ball. You know the lyrics “knees weak arms heavy, mom’s spaghetti” lyrics by Eminem in the song Lose yourself? That was this US team. So much so they were forcing passes and the goalkeeper Freese made a terrible decision to come out of the goal with the ball and give away the ball. This game had so many comedy of errors but I know who I’m blaming..

The VAR refs literally broke FIFA’s rules to issue it in the first place. This wasn’t karma.

They reversed their original decision

Anonymous #32 11w

They didn’t reverse their decision, they suspended it (meaning if Balo gets another red card within his 1 year probationary period he would serve a 2 game suspension), which FIFA is allowed to do under Article 27, and the VAR broke FIFA’s rules to issue said red card in the first place. Again, it’s not karma, the only people mad about this are mad because supposed corruption favored a non-South American/European team for once.

Not a golden generation but they were the best and most talented team in US history with a modern manager and on paper are expected to give Belgium a good game. The whole tournament and before it, they built the hype and beat a Paraguay team who held France to 1 goal. Bosnia are actually a decent team they kept out Italy in the qualifiers. USA just broke under the pressure to me which to be granted was a lot of pressure, but a lot of the game it didn’t seem like they were trying at all

The rule they broke was that the VAR is supposed to only apply slow motion replays to identify the point of contact in a red card situation. They instead used freeze frames and slow motion loops of Balogun stepping on Tarik (Bosnia player’s) ankle. This made the accidental falling collision look like a stomp. So the VAR misused the rule here since the ref on the field looking at the play as it happened didn’t give a card

But this red card that shouldn’t have been a red card isn’t supposed to be repealed by the FIFA process but we got the suspension of that and the controversy. But this rule caused this whole mess in the first place since red cards carry an automatic ban for the next game if the team advances

The VAR literally broke FIFA’s own rules to issue the damn red card in the first place. Messi did the same thing and didn’t get a red. Ronaldo had a multi game suspension suspended by FIFA. How come you people only like corruption when it favors the monopoly

Who issued the ‘appeal’?? Your president is very unstable, of course they’ll ‘rethink their decision’ after such a person makes an ‘appeal’. Who knows what would happen if they refused? No one wants to anger a crazy person, lest their turn their crazy attention to you.

idgaf who made the call, they broke FIFA rules to get it issued, it shouldn’tve resulted in an automatic suspension. Plain and simple

Appeal is different from Trump throwing a fit and getting exactly what he wants because FIFA keeps sucking his dick. I’m glad the US got embarrassed. This country needs to be taken down about 40 pegs

Again they broke FIFA’s rules to get the red card enforced in the first place. I don’t give a shit how much credit that orange wants to take for it. You cannot complain about supposed corruption in Balo’s case when Messi got away with doing the same thing with no VAR interjection or yellow card.

i think the decision to recall the red card before the game threw a lot of the players off, bc it was definitely an unfair decision. i don't think the us would have won either way though, bc they only have the one strategy- chip the ball to the forward over and over and hope it eventually goes in. thier defense is solid, but their style of play is very one dimensional in the offense. eventually they would have run into a team with better touches and diverse passing, and they wouldn't be able to

i root for the womens team because despite the fact that they are SO successful, they get paid less, and get less media attention than the mens teams. also because when i was a little girl who played travel soccer, seeing megan rapinoe dominate her games was cool asf. its fun to watch good teams. the mens team isnt fun to watch, because all they have going for them is endurance- very little technical skill compared to other teams

Anonymous #70 11w

Sure the men’s team is less technical, but the problem I had with their play is the way they gave up. The USA lost 2-1 to an even better Belgium team in 2014 but they had that fighting spirit to try new things but this iteration of the US team seemed to have given up trying to attack a little after the half. The hunger in their play is lacking because they have not played under adversity much at all and their spirit is broken. The US women’s team has this spirit

Now they have 4 years to fix it but I don’t know how it can be better they may do worse next World Cup. Not sure how morale/effort was so low as this was the game to put everything into finding a win but they were content in protecting the score line to not be more embarrassing after the half. The US women would never
