@CharIieBennett The only match I've been to (US based) was Fulham at home where he scored a beautiful curler to win the match. I can still hear the net ripple from where I sat in the Gallowgate!

@MarcSDuffy I feel for Bamba. I don’t think he’s being put in positions to succeed. And thought he did okay. It’s like what Howe did to Hall. Throwing him into midfield away at City and then being like “see”

@sidlowe Or it’s old accounts that were inactive that got taken back. And instead of deleted, we’re just updated to a new account and kept all the followers.

@ToonArmyMIA I’ve always found it strange that they play it before every sports game. What does it have to do with a random Tuesday night game between the Royals and Pirates? Just one of those things you never really think about.

@sidlowe Thoughts on the 2pm weekday kick off effecting atmosphere vs an 8pm evening?

@IanDarke Miguel Almiron had a similar “mistaken identity” for a dive vs USA. At least for that one there was a fouls given against Tim Ream, so guess that classifies as mistaken identity? Still strange. Assumed it was for a card given to one player mistakenly instead of correct player.

@Cylormegill He never gave a single yellow right? Except to the Bosnia manager! Thats insane.

@BillSimmons This is the most accurate and succinct take. I’ve tried to explain to friends and couldn’t do better.

@IanDarke This ref is yet to give a yellow (as of 73rd minute) and didn’t even call a foul on the field.

@CharIieBennett It didn’t make sense to me. No champions league football. Nowhere near it. Feels a lateral move. So I assumed just more wages.

@bwfast The season structure makes sense for American sports, but different from soccer globally. (At least the top Europe leagues). Not just promotion/relegation.

@SimoneBett I don’t rate Netherlands as high as you did, but I think Belgium stink (relatively speaking obviously)

@MarcSDuffy Rice finally moving in the box prior to the goal. But I don’t understand the point of Rice or Anderson in this team. Who is England’s Bruno ya know?

@Zonal_Marking Would have loved to see this Japan team fully healthy. But of course that's part of the game.

@agbnufc_ @NUFC I think it doesn’t look as bad as the initial release (which is always the case). But not sure the sponsor helps or hurts. Something more clever like just the logo or just logo and Knox could be really cool

@MarcSDuffy It’s always felt like the “second” team for a lot of Americans.

@henrywinter I hate the hydration breaks, but why is it being framed as a US decision? FIFA sell the rights. They can sell for higher if they give broadcasters more ad breaks. Feel like it’s FIFAs choice. Nothing to do with American style NFL/NBA. which have tons of breaks not just quarters
