Happy to see Canada at least get the draw on native soil.

Korea looked good last night in the spurts that I saw.

4 goals against a team that only…

gave up 10 goals in 18 games in South American qualifying is excellent.

Tonight was a really great night

We haven't had a night like this in a very, very long time, so I say we savor it. Just great stuff all over the pitch: Pulisic, Jedi, Richards, Adams, Balogun, and Ream (!) were all outstanding. Gio's goal was a work of art.

There's stuff to critique and questions to ask, but in the meantime, just inject that shit directly into to my veins.

The first US goal

not the own goal, but the play out of the backfield where the defender (not sure who it was) got the ball out on the wing to Pulisic … that was a fantastic pass in to space. It was really a very high quality play. That pass created the entire opportunity and Pulisic and Balogun did a nice job of capitalizing on that chance.

Can’t agree on Ream

Their goal is basically on him, and it’s not like they worked some magic. He got lost.

3 guys stood and watched…

…Ream among them, as the ball slowly looped down.

And Weah failed to pick up the free runner.

His effort was feeble, but pinning that goal solely on Ream is awfully harsh. And he was solid otherwise.

It is concerning that we can’t seem to find a better option at CB than a 38 year old.

It was Ream’s awkward touch…

that put the ball in the path of the Paraguayan attacker, who then had the assist.

Fair, but my expectations were low

That one moment aside, I thought he played really well.

First-ever point for Canada in WC.
