Meh I think the midfield is mostly OK. We're completely controlling the game. Altidore doesn't seem to quite understand the offsides rule.

no pressing, no running in to space.

chandler has been the best player on the pitch, imo

If Howard had pulled off that double save, it would have been truly insane

Switzerland of Central America my ass.

I can't think of a better analogy though. Which country is a whiny faking bitch?

Wow, was impossible to see, but should have been a pen. Belgian defender got nothing on the ball, and nailed Jozy's foot on that rebound.

I don't understand what the issue was. Offside, handball?
