So during half time we've been plotting and planning our scapegoat.

Time to turn on our German manager. :lol:
How hard is it for a manager, of any nationality, to say " Get the ball to Harry" ? :lol: 8-)

I know I am biased but he is like a fine wine getting better and better with age and maybe a World Cup win might see him get recognised up there with Messi, Maradona and Pele in the all time greats list.

But overall, play like that and Mexico will see us off and send us home on Sunday.

Nice victory for the US yesterday evening. Except for the questionable red card, which will leave them without top goal scorer Folarin Balogun for the round of 16.

Belgium having a prolonged holiday in Seattle. Yesterday, down 2-0 with 5 minutes to go in regulation, won 3-2. Wish I had watched that one!

US versus Belgium, here, on Monday, 5pm. It might be right up there with one of the most amazing sports days in Seattle history.

Last year, there was the Mariner game 7 playoff game and a Seahawk Monday night game...not a bad day
