That was a blood bath. I thought Mexico took it to US in the 1st half but in the 2nd it was mostly US. Pulsic is a player and may have been the best one out there and he is only 17. The US made a basic flaw that even little kids get taught. They should have a player on the back post on the go ahead goal corner kick. That is unacceptable coaching and defending.

Yeah I've played keeper for years growing up and it's basic. I always keep a player on my near post and one on the far post. The irony of the USA losing on a set piece is ridiculous. If we would've started in a 4-4-2 we would've been far more competitive from the start of the match. We were consceding possession to Mexico in dangerous areas without any pressure on the ball. But of course our manager is German so everybody just assumes he knows more about soccer than the silly Americans.
