He was tied for the tournament lead in goals plus assists going into this round with four. now he has added two in this game. Might not last though, since Messi could go nuts on Venezuela Saturday.

Hot take! Actually if you watched the game they had several tiki taka -esque passing series never before seen by a u.s. team. None of them amounted to anything though.

If I made memes I’d make one of that goal and his celebration saying “how ya like my concrete foot first touch now???”

I have been watching Spanish language soccer matches for over 20 years and I’m finally beginning to understand what they’re saying.

That was SO monumentally stupid of Jermaine. the ref actually literally had the red and yellow card out for Valencia at the moment that jermaine decided to strike that guy’s face. what a f****** moron.

Yeah I love rooting for Mexico during the big tournaments. Great underdogs and they go for it like nobody else.

They looked pretty damn good in the group stage two years ago before their traditional second round exit.

Good job by u.s. Winning their group. But they likely face Argentina in semis if they get by Ecuador. Ecuador is probably fifty/fifty but beating Argentina is really a longshot.

He was just saying what those other announcers didn’t have the guts to!

Yeah magic is just using kd and lbj as a red herring. When everyone else zigs, magic zags!

Stupid?! All his tweets are one hundred precent accurate! I hope Jim bus listens to magic and not you!

Uh, that was the joke.

That penalty call was butt. Total butt.

Those are fantastic. And that bullet pass blew my mind.

Blake had some awesome saves. So did what’s his fuck for Mexico. Two absolutely stellar ones.

Definitely should’ve been a penalty call, however I also wish he had continued instead of falling down since he’d freed himself and he’d put a nice touch on it and had a good opportunity had he stayed on his feet.

Elbows direct dangerous things AWAY from the balls. That’s simple evolution.

It’s a cicada slowly emerging from its multi decade slumber.

I’m impressed at how delly noticed his grasp on most hateable player/punchable face was slipping, so he went right out in game one and cemented it.

I’m surprised they ruled it a common foul. Seemed pretty obvious that it was a lose ball foul.
