Guys, if you have Telefutura, put it on - El Salvador leads Costa Rica 1-0 with 13 minutes to go. This is the same El Salvador team that got thrashed 5-0 by Mexico and the same Costa Rica squad that whipped Cuba 5-0.

EDIT: Costa Rica tied the game on practically the last kick of the match and leaves with a 1-1 draw.

Livestrong Sporting Park is absolutely gorgeous. As a DCU fan I am genuinely jealous.

I went to the first 2 games of their 3 game homestand to start. The field was atrocious, but they resurfaced it in May & now it's acceptable. Then again, I'm just glad the Silverbacks are back in action so I can't really complain. :P But yeah, it's definitely a young team & they've got a LONG way to go as a whole (especially up front. Them getting 2 goals last night was a miracle :lol:), but pretty much everybody following the team knows it's gonna be an uphill battle. Like I said above, I hope they can build off this & at least get out of the cellar. They'll have some more stinkers like the one they had in Minnesota, but it should definitely get better here.

Also, Ochoa & 5 other members of El Tri are about to go down for doping, it seems. I'd provide a link but I'm on a phone right now.

I get to check it out on Tuesday for the Gold Cup games. After watching last night's game, I can't freaking wait to see the place in person. :D

How far is the park from civilization? I dont work next week, and may head down...unless Canada loses to Guadeloupe, then I'll just be pissed off!

They made it a point to mention the Supporters Club at least 15 times during the match last night, if it doesnt live up to the hype i'll be mad (fill us in)!

2-1 Final.

^^^ sums up my reaction to that result. I'm sure I'd be more disappointed had I actually watched them lose, but eh. VERY disappointed in the squad right now.

I honestly think Bradley needs to go. Under him, we seem to fall behind only to come back.

2nd half was good, but we obviously thought we would roll over them and came out flat in the 1st.

So..um...is it acceptable to fire your coach now if you are the USMNT?

The need for new defensive blood is as evident as ever...the responsibility is on Bradley AND the US program as a whole.

Well if this porous result against Spain wasn't another eye opener for the US Men's National Team, then a potential loss to Canada, Panama, or Guadalupe in the Group Stage of the Gold Cup should be.

Now there is reason to worry.

The U.S. lost to Panama?!? :blink:

I wouldn't be so shocked if it was, say, Mexico or Canada... But, Panama? You have to be kidding me.

Be shocked if it was Canada. Losses to Mexico, Honduras, Costa Rica, or Jamaica wouldnt be surprising.

Canada is not a top tier team in CONCACAF. Besides USA and Mexico, the last few teams to qualify for a World Cup out of CONCACAF has been Honduras, Costa Rica, Trinidad & Tobago, and Jamaica, going back to the 98 World Cup. Not to say they aren't improving, cause they have alot of established MLS & European based players, but face it, it would be an absolute shock if USA lost to Canada. If USA is playing up to their potential they are the top team in CONCACAF. Right now they are not playing to their potential.

Mexico has the best player in CONCACAF though in Chicharito. That kid is amazing.

Agreed, but you see little glimpses what Canada can do when all 11 are clicking. I really think it's a matter of time before Canada is a major player in CONCACAF.
