The US really couldn't schedule these JAN/FEB games in warm weather like FL or TX? Federation is in shambles.


Why the hell would you schedule a game in Minnesota? It looks like Lambeau Field conditions out there.


This is beyond stupid

They wanted to make the Hondurans uncomfortable but they're almost as uncomfortable themselves.


Also, they had a game in Ontario sandwiched between 2 home games. It wouldn't make any sense to fly from TX to ON to FL for 3 games in 1 week.

Before the goal Weston McKennie was standing with his arms on his sides shivering.




Edit: weather across Tampa/Orlando/Miami is a cool warm ~70'

Yeah it's ridiculous. No way should this game be played in these conditions. Hell even DC would be fine as it's only 45 here.

Nothing wrong with it. There's no storm out there. It's cold, just like it was cold on Sunday in Hamilton.

The best game the US has played attacking wise in a minute and the golden boy is on the bench

Great to see Celtic get the W over Rangers. 3-0, a thrashing at Parkhead. They've gone top of the league now, won five in a row and not lost since September. In that time their league record is 15 wins, 3 draws from 18 matches. Ange is doing it! @Fenian

It's a formality at this point. Too many emotional fans that got caught up in the "Wenger out, Ole out" culture got our manager ousted in the midst of a qualification cycle for someone who isn't better. We never making it back to the world cup unless they expand it to 100 teams.

Honduras is the worst team, haven't won a single game and lost their last 5. It's hardly a good sample size.

Dudes on Honduras don't even want to be out there Barely warmed up and came out late at halftime

The gamesmanship from USSF is terrible, no proper player actually wants to play in sub-zero degrees. you want mild weather, low humidity and a well-hydrated lawn

 

[Spade]

The US I think needs a couple more goals for differential purposes here.

You go too far south and the risk of having too many Central American fans in the crowd supporting the other team.
Also ... Canada is top of the table killing everyone in the cold, you're not making sense here.
