Still that red card could be a big problem for them next round.

Yeah, it will be for sure.

It’s a bit embarrassing staying down like that but I don’t mind giving shithousery back when it’s dished out like this.

US seeing it out well here. Fitness is probably one of their biggest strengths really and they're covering the ground well given they're a man light.

Mehmic close either side there.

No reviewing of straight reds by the decision review panel then?

get in

I just looked it up, the criteria to overturn seems insurmountable in this instance.

It’s a poor decision and unfair to be without our main CF next round but it’s the sort of thing a good team can cope with.

TBD whether this US team is good or has just had an easy run of fixtures so far.

Tough call that one, orange card anyone?

Who do you think they'll run with next game?

Was he trying to leave one on him, even a little bit, or just really clumsy? They're just showing the replay here.

Messi should have gone in that similar instance- Ive little doubt he intended it and was nowhere near the ball nor likely to get it.

I can see why it was given but feel that a yellow would have been enough.

It does look awful and there is an argument that you need to be in control of your body. Feels harsh though as clearly tangle of legs that in most cases doesn't end up as anything more than tripping over each other.

It's a red card imo. Intention doesn't matter in those circumstances.

I mean, the lesson here is never buy from StubHub

Doesn’t matter either way, Trump is probably going to pardon Balogun, have the red card rescinded and award the USA a bye in the next round.

Unless Donny has a word with his soccer bitch Infantino and they change it.
