[ALVAREZ6]

Does anyone know if it will be televised??????

[ALVAREZ6]

answered own question: ESPN2 ......fuuuuuck yeah

[lefty]

Good stuff

[Whisky Dog]

Sit Messi and let him rest. We need him rejuvenated for the massive stretch if games coming up at Bernabeu and in CL.

Keep dreaming, all of Argentina's friendlies must have a clause that obliges Messi to play a certain amount of minutes, if not AFA doesn't get paid.

[Sense]

Easy Argentina win.. 2-0

[MannyIsGod]

Easy Argentina win.. 2-0

FUUUUUUUUUUUU


USA 3-0. Donovan shits all over Messi.










































































































:lol

[ALVAREZ6]

I do know Tevez and Aguero were left off, obviously to allow other forwards a chance to play. I'm just interested to see a great futbol game again that I can actually watch live on national TV. I was considering going to the game since it's in New Meadowlands Stadium, but with travel from school and tickets, decided it was too much money to spend as a college student on just a friendly match.

Yeah I know it'll never happen but I can have a dream.

Just have an easy match with no BS where everyone walks away clean.

[urunobili]

5-1 Argies...

[lefty]

Manny :lol

[The_Worlds_finest]

Piss off you cunts. USA wins 2-1 and cuts ears off ala Falkland Islands.

[MannyIsGod]

I like the starting 11 for the US. Hopefully Agudelo gets some run.

[lefty]

It is on, bitches

[lefty]

A minute of silence in anticipation of the bukkaking

[Whisky Dog]

Is Messi in the midfield? WTF?

[MannyIsGod]

LOL Handball in the box no call.

[Libri]

Argentina trying to play like Barcelona.

[MannyIsGod]

Jones has looked super sloppy so far.

[Whisky Dog]

Argentina trying to play like Barcelona.

If they're going to do that they need to put Messi up top where he wins balon d'ors.

They have nobody with half the midfield talent of Xavier and Iniesta so it probably won't work so well.

[MannyIsGod]

Messi hurt himself there.

[Libri]

So far USA has played a defensive game.

[MannyIsGod]

God this field fucking blows. Landon had a shot at that long ball until it hit the ground and literally just died in the exact spot it landed.

[MannyIsGod]

So far USA has played a defensive game.

Argentina is dominating the possession.

[MannyIsGod]

Man that was beautiful. :(

[Libri]

Argentina is dominating the possession.

Time of possession must 70/80% for Argentina.

[MannyIsGod]

Fucking Jozy trying to be Messi.

[Dinamita]

So far USA has played a defensive game.

When don't they play a defensive game? :lol

[MannyIsGod]

This ref is fucking blind.

[MannyIsGod]

Time of possession must 70/80% for Argentina.

At least.

Thats the 2nd time Clint's gotten a shot on goal. Thats a good thing at least.

[MannyIsGod]

LOL Messi destroyed Bradley.

[MannyIsGod]

Well that was pretty much inevitable.

[Libri]

Messi has been everywhere.

[MannyIsGod]

Best thing about this game so far is no vuvuzelas. :lol

[Whisky Dog]

This US team has hit it's ceiling. They have to do something about that back as they all suck ass. Slow, out of position, lazy to the ball all of the time.

Altidore hasn't improved his touch one bit in over a year. He still looks the same.

[MannyIsGod]

Yeah, the back line is just not going to cut it but this back line won't be there in 2014. We'll see more Lichaj, Ream, and Gonazales then.

[Libri]

I don't see how USA is going to be able to score in this game. Perhaps a surprise counter attack but Argentina has been too dominant.

[Sense]

Easy Argentina win.. 2-0

[MannyIsGod]

:lol Sense you don't get props for the obvious.

[Sense]

Hey I could've easily said 5-0 and it would've been obvious... I just need to see one more!!! ONE MORE, NO MORE!

[Spurologist]

who scored for ARG?

[SAtown]

who scored for ARG?

Cambiasso

[Spurologist]

Cambiasso

description please...just checking out the game

[SAtown]

Sorry :lol

It was a typical Cambiasso goal, iirc someone crosses it, shoots it and is blocked, then Cambiasso shoots the rebound into the net amongst the confusion.

All his goals seem to be that way

[SAtown]

Zf79235__OQ

[Spurologist]

:lol

Inter Milan would be proud.

[MannyIsGod]

Fucking agudelo!

[SAtown]

goooooooooooool :lmao

[Libri]

:wow

[Spurologist]

Agudelo!!!!!

[MannyIsGod]

Dude this kid just has a nose for goal. Geat ball by Landon and Juan on the rebound. Fucking NICE.

[Sense]

nooooooooooooooooo

[MannyIsGod]

Jesus Christ Messi IS god.

[MannyIsGod]

nooooooooooooooooo

lol

[Libri]

Tim Howard has been very good.

[MannyIsGod]

God help the hype if Juan manages to get one more.

[Whisky Dog]

Howard has been a fucking monster in this game. The difference between this being 1-1 and 4-1 has been Howard beasting and the Argie keeper giving up an obese rebound.

[MB20]

Possesion of the ball in nice and all, but Arg NEEDS to score.
Too many passes once they get close to the US goalkeeper.

[Spurologist]

I really like Timothy Chandler at right back....not quite as good defensively as Cherundolo but he will probably take over him at the next world cup

[MannyIsGod]

Fucking Demerrit

[MannyIsGod]

I really like Timothy Chandler at right back....not quite as good defensively as Cherundolo but he will probably take over him at the next world cup

Like what I've seen so far. He's come up so fast out of nowhere.

[Whisky Dog]

Damn Dempsey just missed a touch on goal. Couldn't get it together quickly.

Very entertaining 2nd half

[MannyIsGod]

Damn Clint's first touch there was just bad - that could have been a great chance.

[Spurologist]

Does Chandler know how to dive like fucking ARG....He was pulled back but kept going....Isn't he more German anyway.. :lol

[MannyIsGod]

:lol

Weak yellow. Nice acting.

[MannyIsGod]

I'm not pleased at all with Bocanegra and Demerrit. Its a shame Ream isn't in.

[MannyIsGod]

Nice creativity by Jozy.

[Spurologist]

good job by Clint there to give team USA extra breaths there and has the team a little fired up

[MannyIsGod]

Fuck this game is exciting as hell now

[Libri]

Second half has been great.

[Spurologist]

I can only imagine the player Demps would be if he had speed

[MannyIsGod]

Wow stupid challenge by Bocanegre there.

[Spurologist]

Bocanegra has been horrendous the second half..don't know about the first

give away machine.....he should never have been captain....sadly he's probably the best option

[Whisky Dog]

Impressive 2nd half from the US

[MannyIsGod]

Good job by the US in that 2nd half.

Say what you will about Jozy, but he played very well in the 2nd half. I think the biggest mistake is to keep trying to make him a lone striker. He really sucks at it.

Man of the Match is Tim Howard. No doubt.

[IronMexican]

Remember when that black guy said he wishes someone got a red card so someone could sub in for him?

[MannyIsGod]

Timothy Chandler was extremely impressive. Can't wait to see more of him.

Dissapointed not to see Ream. Demerrit was pretty atroucious and so was Bocanegra so at this point I really hope to see as much of the youth as possible. We got some some good guys in the back coming up.

Gooch actually did look pretty good out there. Obviously his time at Twente has been helping him out.

Jones was terrible in the first half, Edu wasn't much better but Maurice played much better in the 2nd half.

Landon and Clint were great - especially Clint in the 2nd half.

I really enjoyed that 2nd half. Great showing by the US.

[MannyIsGod]

remember when that black guy said he wishes someone got a red card so someone could sub in for him?

rofl.

[Spurologist]

Ian Darke is the man!

[lefty]

USA win 1-1

[The_Worlds_finest]

fuck off lefty, dont you have some democracy rally to be attending? You still butt hurt your team didnt hold on for the winning tie vs USA in the world cup?

[ElNono]

That was a really good and fun game. Much better than the one 3 years ago.
I'm glad I didn't attend though, it was cold as shit over here.

Argentina is going to keep on having problems until they manage to revamp the entire defense. Kicking out Heinze was a good start, but if the best you have to play is Burdisso, you're not going anywhere. Milito is okay, but he barely plays in Barcelona.
Zanetti is a freak for his age, but he might not make it to the next world cup. They should be trying to find a replacement already.

Other than that, it's a stacked team. I just wish DiMaria would be a bit smarter player... but he's young, so he'll learn.

Team USA is at it's best when they really work hard. I thought they respected ARG too much in the first half.

[lefty]

:cry:cry:cry:cry:cry

[MannyIsGod]

[MannyIsGod]

:lol why the hell would I be crying?

[lefty]

:lol why the hell would I be crying?
Shit, wrong smileys

[ElNono]

lol Italy

[DAF86]

I really liked Argentina's first half, that's what I like about teams: ball possesion and pressing in the opponents' half, one more score would have seal the deal, but I'm not too sad about the result, Argentina leave's the game knowing that they are finding the play that their coach wants and US leaves the game with a draw and good second half, everyone's happy.
