June 13Jun 13 Would be good if Australia also makes the knockout because it'll certainly boost our national team's morale after being beaten up 3x in 2 years.
June 13Jun 13 Disappointingly one-sided in the end.USA have a good squad but Tim Ream will be a weakness in the later rounds.

June 13Jun 13 Yeh hope US don’t do as well as that suggests, they do have a good squad now though and have underperformed given their size in my lifetime.

June 13Jun 13 Just realised that Balogun is only eligible to play for the USA because he happened to be born there while his parents were on holiday. Certainly an interesting person to have as your star given everything that's going on in the USA at the moment!

Although the goals were largely impressive.I don’t see much of her tbh 🤣Yeh Paraguay came 6th in South American qualifying but thought they’d be a lot more solid. The US did look impressive though. But defence will struggle against better teams.

Sounds like a Nigerian name originally. Had heard of him but thought Hadji Wright would have started ahead of him.

(he was also eligible to play for Nigeria through his parents)
