WCQ: Third Round - Window 1 (September 2-8, 2021)

[Cheeta]

So Jack Warner was booted from CONCACRAP IN 2015 and we're in a 2nd round of World Cup Qualifies with the USA already on the outside looking in.

Odd....

[Razcal]

I do wish OneSoccer could have some sort of halftime show, maybe picked up from wherever they are getting the feed from?

1 win - 3 draws - 36 losses when trailing at half time.

USA international record.

I know a draw probably benefits us but man I’d love to see another meltdown

A Robinson 3 minutes in to half 2. Good for us!

Yup. A draw keeps USA and Honduras back at 3 points, and keeps an ineffectual Berhalter in his job. Shut 'er down.

I think a draw between Honduras and the US would be perfect as well. As much as I would love to see the US at 2 points, I don't want to see Honduras at 5 points. Honduras at 5 points would be a fantastic start for them (a perfect home record and 2 away results out of 2), so let's have them drop a few points at home as well.

All pretty favourable results if this game holds.

Personally I would take a tie or a US win.

[Watchmen]

As every Whitecaps fan can tell you, this is not something we ever expected to see.

The way the US is playing, I think they're going to be right in the dogfight for qualifying spots. What we thought was going be a fight for 3-6 has now turned into a fight for 2-6, so I'm happy to see both teams drop points. Mexico is really the only sure thing in this qualifying now that we're seeing US' true colours. That being a team of good players that is very poorly coached and doesn't look like much of a team at all.

[frmr]

Or maybe it's just their inexperience that is their problem, I dunno. They're certainly not living up to their own hype though that's for sure.
