    Hazard isn't playing defense. They have a CB playing RB. We have to attack that. I see Altidore coming into it if nothing has happened after 20 minutes into the second half.

    Other positives are Yedlin and Beasley playing RB/LB they have pace!

    Here we go!

    Would have hit the bar and come out for a goal, Howard is our only chance to stay in the game.

    just started watching... any one have a summary of the first half other than it's 0-0? Sounds like US is playing poorly and is lucky to be tied?

    Yep, also Fabian Johnson injured his left hamstring and was replaced by Yedlin. Dude has been a spark of energy thus far

    Tim Howard is our savior

    Belgium dominant. Pressing. US had a few good counter attacks.

    how many shots have they had? seems like a constant barrage, and almost no possession for the US

    BRADLEY AGAIN stopped running after losing the ball on our half, in a crucial situation! Like a turn over in Basketball and then to just stop running back on a fast break! UNACCEPTABLE!! :mad:

    Wow it is almost like the belgians do not want to score. 1 counter can be enough for the us

    This is like Ghana game except worse. We are completely outclassed in midfield.

    All we need to do is slip one ball in.

    Americans don't even put pressure defensively. Even when Belgians are near US penalty area, they are allowed to move the ball around with little stress. Americans just back away, especially whoever play on the right side.

    It's like Americans are exhausted, or partied too much, or mentally broken.

    They need watch Mexicans or Greeks play defense.
