US subs have brought some energy and have created a few chances but nothing dangerous. Nearing 10 minutes left.

Pepi gets a close but tough look and skies it.

Chris Richards down and in some pain (foot?) US has already used every sub. Not ideal.

US looking dangerous late. Arriola bicycle kick just misses.

3 minutes and whatever stoppage is given all that’s left. Doesn’t look like Richards is gonna return.

Pulisic puts a long free kick on goal but an easy save.

Canada adds a late goal and wins 2-0. US dominated the play but were never even remotely dangerous to be honest. Canada is the class of CONCACAF right now. Disappointing would be an understatement.

Jamaica at Panama and Costa Rica at Mexico just starting. Wins by Jamaica and Mexico probably the best results for the US.

And just like that it’s Jamaica up 1-0 off an early PK in Panama. Looks like we’ve got no fans at this one.

Blake proves why he’s arguably the best keeper in CONCACAF with a point blank save and a PK save just a few minutes apart.

Correcting an earlier comment… Mexico vs CR starts at 5:00.

Panama header off the crossbar. Feel like the equalizer is coming.

Ugh….. ugly own goal ties it for Panama.

GB felt like he was throwing the game at the end. Arriola had that amazing bicycle chance, but Musah and Dest were going well on the right hand side. Cannon looked fine, but I felt other subs were needed.
I'm really tired of GB and ready for a change. Even when we win it's after a lackluster 1st half and stressful 2nd half. We have way too much talent for that against most of these opponents. There's nobody else to blame except the skipper. He's not making the most of the talent. Worse, he's making the talent look mediocre. It's time to male the switch before we get too close to the WC.
Adams going out changed the game. Losing Richards later was a killer.
Pulisic isn't right. McKennie is our best player right now and Adams is the only other guy in the conversation.
Weah unavailable hurt too. Darn Canadia.
Gotta get 3 on Wednesday and that game at Azteca in the next window is going to be big.

Getting 6 points out of the two home games should honestly be enough.

Panama now up 2-1. They would be within 1 point of the US with a win.

It would, except I'd prefer a stress free final window. With only one home game next window and our performance away from the mainland it's not unrealistic for us to only get 1-3 points from the next window. I'm just making my call now that we'll never peak with this talent as long as GB is at the helm. He's done a lot of good things, but we can't pretend like he's not suppressing potential more than he's realizing it. This group of kids deserves better.
