How is the USA supposed to beat Argentina?
>>68650997
Defending and not missing half a dozen wide open looks.
t. Venezuela
One word.
Pulisic.
>>68650997
by believing we can win
memes are our only hope
heart and BELIEF
Threat of aerial bombardment
>>68650997
By FIGHTING and WINNING
Alexi Lalas says we are not the underdogs
Refball
We only defeated Venezuela by 3 because of refball. It should have been like 6-1 with 2 or 3 red cards for them
with heart
just let meme magic happen
>>68651121
Lalas says a lot of things
>>68651121
Lalas is a jackass.

>>68651121
alexi lalas is the dumbest motherfucker alive i swear
>>68650997
Zusi is starting, Argies beware.
>>68650997
Pressure and not fucking up real bad in the defense. See, Argentina likes to play with control of the ball, precise passing. But most players aren't fit for that system and if you put pressure in the mid and on the defense, Argentina will spaghetti.
>>68650997
the 1/64 german genes are on you, you will crush us
but really, our defense is shit and we LITERALLY don't know what to do when we get pressured, we always lose the ball
implanting a dictatorship like in the old times
>>68651220
Go back to /a/
Rojo-Funes Mori-Otamendi-Mercado is literally the best defensive line in the whole world, counting both club and international level
>>68650997
simple, remove all of the coca-cola vending machines from the premises.

Please, no one take this bait. I am giving away a (you) so the shitposter will leave us alone.

We literally never chocked, what the fuck are you talking about? Stop repeating every dumb meme you read on /sp/ like you knew about football
Name a single tournament in the last 100 years where we chocked
>>68651687
seriously you fags blame him when you as a country just decided to give a shit about this sport in the last 10-15 years and expect to content on the same level as teams that have been playing this game for generation after generation for over a century and more
memes.
Pressuring the midfield hard, not choking away good chances and not playing murderball

Oh have another drink a go sit in the corner boy. Grown folk with world class soccer teams are talking
>>68650997
Score a goal early on through luck and or refball and park the bus. Even then we will most likely lose.
I'm fine with losing to Messi as long as it isn't that bad.

>>68652025
You forgot the world cup also
>>68652025
How did we choke last year?
Chile was playing at home and cheated like rats
>>68652084
How did we choke there? Germany had a way better team than us
>>68652084
2010 I guess
they certainly didn't "choke" in 2014
>>68651126
No worries, we have Bobby Wood to score a goal or two.
>>68652106
how is missing most of your penalties ever NOT choking?
>>68652151
He's out m8
>>68652200
Wood got a bullshit yellow, as did Bedoya
Jones earned his red though
>>68652041
Sad theyre not included in the copa
>>68652246
Doesn't matter
Unless there's some miracle they will all be out

ok..
Klinsmann get off my board you are not getting secret information from us
>>68652106
I dont think he knows what "choking" means.
We're gonna unload so much freedom on them.
it ends here
I wish we at least had all the starters
that ref was ridiculous
>>68654423
Very unlikely. USA will have to get lucky and probably advance on pens. They have a competent defense (arguably the best back 4 we've had in a while) but the midfield is severely weakened with Bedoya and Jones out (though I think Zusi and whoever else Klinsman puts there will be able to run longer). I think Pulisic or Nagbe, whoever replaces wood, will be able to decently attack the Argie defense if the midfield doesn't collapse easily. My prediction is 3-4 really good scoring chances, maybe 1 goal. My fingers are crossed that Pulisic gets the nod and ends up scoring. Hopefully they can hold back Argentina's offense, we'll see.
>>68652070
This. Copa America ending on a 2-0 win for America over Mexico is THE ideal ending.
>>68650997
With the help of these dubs
>>68652106
Maybe English is to hard for you, Fernando
seems weird they will have 2 fewer days of rest, why is the schedule like that?
>>68650997
You have Clint Dempsey
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPkQ6YdRCbQ
Bribes. It's already fixed.
Bribery. I bet if we offer Messi a lifetime of cheese pizzas delivered via helicopter anywhere in the world, he'd throw the game.
>>68655802
Schedule is always set up to give host team the biggest advantage possible
>>68656379
You'd need to provide Sprite as well.

Our pizzas are by far superior to yours, I was actually very surprised by this.
>>68650997
By playing a great game, being lucky, hoping Messi has a bad match, and shooting Di Maria in the leg before he recovers.

Come on bro use your head.
Based Brooks will break Messi's legs
>>68650997
Will they atleast give us back Jermaine Jones through an appeal?
>>68662423
Probably not 2bh
>>68651080
Fuck off, pedo
>>68662529
They need to , we are the host.
Let us face the #1 ranked team in the world with our army
>>68662423
If anything they downgrade it to a yellow so hed still be suspended
>>68650997
Hold the match on some certain islands.
They have a 100% loss rate there.
>>68650997
Grease it like Euro 2004
USA to meme Messi and Argentina out of another major tournament
>>68650997
You dont beat Argentina , you wait and let us fail as we did for the past 23 years
It's soccer. A game of chance.
Just defend and cross finguers.
>Murrishits

the goal is not to get 7-0 like Mexico.

>>68650997
>tfw USA are literally the underdogs
7-0 get
>>68663699
That's true. CONMEBOL is tough, Argentina and Brazil are perennial favorites and the only shit-tier team right now is Bolivia. Even Venezuela is decent.
I like seeing the USA at soccer, they aren't a strong team, but play with a lot of heart
>>68664539
...thanks, I guess? We've reached the group stages of the last 2 world cups, so we're a relatively strong team, but I agree with you in that we aren't anything more than a regional power as of now.
>>68661817
that's completely untrue, coming from someone who has actually been to buenos aires. they're way too damn fluffy n shit.
>>68664539
The murderball that's been happening in this copa has been fucking awesome to watch. I have a slight suspicion that FIFA wanted to experiment by giving the USA audience more physicality to watch. It's working on me.
>>68655037
Well, Mexico shitted on that idea
>>68650997
>How is the USA supposed to beat Argentina?

The US usually spergs when they play traditionally top level sides. they looked bad against Columbia in part bc they missed easy passes or made decisions that pros should not make. The penalty that gave Columbia its second goal should not have even happened, bc Bradley,iirc, gave the ball away on a terrible pass seconds before.
>>68652070
>70
>22:08
Anon I think you predicted Mexico's obliteration tonight. IT'S THE MEME THAT KEEPS ON MEMEING.
Argentina didn't look unbeatable today against Venezuela. Messi is obviously GOAT but as long as you pester the shit out of him he will stay contained. Mark him constantly, Counter attack well, defend and hold possession, and this game can be won by the US. It won't be an impressive onslaught of skill but Klinsman is good at strategy. The US beat Germany and the Netherlands last summer this way.
Murderball might work against them as well but I could see the US taking on some cards and going down a man and getting shredded 4-1 like Venezuela. If the US were to play really aggressive and not concede any reds or many yellows though they'd just frustrate the shit out of Messi and he won't be a problem them.
The GOAT does not react well to being roughed up.
Make Messi do this early and get red carded off in the first half.
The US, as they say, are playing with house money at this point. Klansmann said his goal was to get to the semifinals, which they have done, so if they lose to Argentina, it's no huge blow to expectations. If they upset Argentina, then there will be some legendary bantz. I don't even want to imagine the level of bantz if the US wins the whole thing. Either way, win/win for the US at this point.
>>68668106
This is a good plan. Just talk about the Falkland Islands or something like that.

>>68650997
Ask UK.
>>68666243
you fucked up and asked for the fluffy one, you can choose from 2
I see it going a few ways
The most obvious being we get BTFO completely
The second being that we hold a one goal lead thanks to some meme play until the last minutes, choke it away, lose in extra time
The third being that we're down by 2 for most of the game, score late, miss multiple chances to tie and lose bitterly as the final whistle blows
i'd rather lose to USA now than choking away another final
I really want to win this but if Caca Martino gets sacked i wouldn't complain either
>>68669121
These are the only possible outcomes
>>68650997
Meme magic is literally our only hope.
G-guys, w-what does a 7-0 taste like?
>>68668939
>Implying he'd give a shit about that being essentially a Spaniard
Talk about him getting buttfucked by Bubba when he goes to jail for tax fraud
>>68669179
why do you want managers to get sacked
the NT needs continuity. We need a manager that stays for at least 5 years so he can create a project. We should do like the Germans.
>>68650997
Parking the bus.
Klinsmann knows how to fuck Argentina.
We're going to beat Argentina through some meme tactics and then choke hard against Chile in the final.
Tis the American way.
>>68670930
Actually, >we are pretty good when counter-attacking. Possession is not our strong suit, and it would be foolish to even try against Argentina.
Hoping for alot of luck so we can meme our way into the final.

As long as we don't get 7-0 we will be good.

Sub on a fatty in extra time and tell him this in German:
''show the world your as good as Messi''
That should result in a 1-0 win.
>>68669121
The third option will happen
