canucklefan Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Number 10 Guido received a second yellow card yesterday. I assume he won't be able to play tomorrow. I thought he was one of the most remarkable players yesterday on the pitch for the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThiKu Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I have just been watching MUFC. v Wigan. Watching Scholes and Carrick I saw more and more features of Alderson's game. If he emulate/replicate to them to even a decent degree Caps and Canada will be well off for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alderson is the man, he can bully opponents off the ball but also can play a very strong technical game. Really impressed by the way he's created from his position in the two matches we've seen and also by the way he defends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masster Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 According to mlssoccer.com, the final will be on ESPN Deportes. I have contacted Abruzzo Cappuccino Bar on Commercial Drive in Vancouver and they will be showing the game. Hope to see you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpg75 Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 Currently 1-0 Panama in the 44th minute of the 3rd place match. The Jamaican host is going on about handballs having to be deliberate to be called a penalty, guess that means Jamaica had a PK called against them for a handball...goal was in the 36th minute.

jpg75 Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 It's final, Panama wins 1-0 and takes 3rd place. Kept an eye and ear on this game while watching the Leafs and to me it looked like Panama were getting slightly better possession for most of the 2nd half and Jamaica had few dangerous chances.

Pretty dull game but I think a bumpy field contributed to the sloppiness... that, and maybe the teams didn't much care whether they got a medal or not..

ag futbol Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Looked like the previous reports on these teams turned out to be accurate. Jamaica with lots of individual skill but an unwillingness to play as a team. Panama was better organized but looked to have problems going forward.

guppy Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Panama already well-advanced on delay of game tactics ... perhaps they're born with that skill in that region of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I really doubt these players don't care or are taking it easy as some have suggested, you need to think these matches are the biggest of these guys careers up until now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpg75 Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Was checking the US roster to see if Cole Nagy - the kid from Arizona who was called up to one of the earliest U17 camps and then switched to the US - was on it (he's not) and noticed something interesting. Of the 20 US roster players 14 of them were born in the first half of 1994, a whopping nine of those were born in the first quarter of '94! Of the remaining six players three were born in in the second half of '94 and the other three are '95's. This is pretty much in line with the ongoing criticism of USSF youth scouting you can read about on BigSoccer. This US team is built to win now and not really to develop future pros. http://www.concacaf.com/page/Under17s/TeamRelatedLink/0,,12813~5798~1,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamaica did seem to try to take it up a notch near the end, but Panama sucked the life out of them. As someone mentioned, Panama far more organized.
