I don't think the Yanks really want to go to Russia for the World cup.
Winners do it the right way.

Costa Rica just ate USA dinner.
The US played typical English football- Energetic, and waiting to be opportunistic.
It was Costa Rica that took their opportunities with calmness.

No matter what, USA will still qualify for Russia 2018.

So, which one is worse? Losing 4-1 away or losing 2-0 at home?
Not really sure why the fired Klinsmann. This US team just ain't it for me.

I watched this one in its entirety and I praise Coasta Rica for their tenacity in the game. The Yankees thought they were going to have it easy and when things were not going as they had thought, they began to complain :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I must admit is was a good game

That was a real smash and grab job done by Costa Rica.
Rooting for Panama to perform and take 3rd place from the Yanks.

The Yanks are reaping the effect of modelling their game on the English. With English coaches dominating the youth game
and preferring size and aggression to talent, they are just finding out that without a few 'masterminds' their game cannot reach
the top level. This team will be hard to crack if only it can mix in, two or three creative midfielders.
The US should still take the third spot for Russia 2018.

I hope Yankee makes it o or else the progress football is making in this country will be reversed.
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

Canada avenge Gold Cup-ending loss to Jamaica

A night to celebrate for Canada turned slightly sour Saturday as Vancouver Whitecaps teenager Alphonso Davies saw red late in a 2-0 friendly win over Jamaica.

The 16-year-old Davies apologized via social media after being sent off in the 75th minute for kicking out at Jamaica's Damion Lowe after the two went down in a tangle in the corner. Lowe had seemingly precipitated the incident by shoving the Canadian.

It was unclear what contact Davies made with his boot but Lowe clutched his face and Costa Rican referee Ricardo Montero pulled out the red. Davies exited, pulling his jersey over his face in seeming embarrassment as he walked off.

Davies was the darling of the Gold Cup earlier this summer, with three goals and a handful of awards. But he collected nothing but controversy this night after coming on in the 70th minute for his sixth cap.

"To be honest it happened so fast, I didn't really know what was going at the time," Davies said in a very brief media scrum after the game. "I've just got to go back and reflect on what happened."

He was more forthcoming on Twitter, saying: "I just want to apologize to CanadaSoccerEN for my breakout on the field earlier today, and to the people that came to watch the game." The tweet was accompanied by a GIF subtitled "I'm sorry."

Ironically his pre-game tweet showed him kicking a corner flag in a goal celebration below the words "game day."

Coach Octavio Zambrano didn't defend the play but supported his young midfielder.

"He's a young guy," he said after the match. "A lot of things have happened to him. A lot of things that people know and other things that people don't know.

"We just have to be patient with him. He's a great kid. I stand by him ... I am not overly concerned because I know his essence as a human being. He's a great kid. He's going to be OK."

Measure of revenge

The win, a measure of revenge for being ousted out of the Gold Cup earlier this summer by the Reggae Boyz, continued the Canadian men's resurgence under Zambrano. There is more work to do but the Ecuador native, who is 3-1-2 at the helm, has Canada playing with confidence and poise.

Anthony Jackson-Hamel and Jonathan Osorio scored for Canada, which led 2-0 after just 30 minutes. Winger Junior Hoilett was the man of the match, tormenting defenders while showing off a deep bag of tricks.

A poor performance by Jamaica helped the home side before 21,724 on a breezy night at BMO Field.

Jamaica, which vaulted 19 places after the Gold Cup, is currently ranked 57th in the world. Canada is No. 95.

The game was a rematch of the July CONCACAF championship quarter-final, which saw the Reggae Boyz dispatch the Canadian men 2-1. The Jamaicans went on to upset Mexico 1-0 in the semifinal before falling 2-1 to the U.S.

Jamaica's pace posed early problems for Canada but the home side went ahead in the 16th minute, taking advantage of a giveaway by veteran defender Jermaine Taylor after some Canadian pressing. The ball went straight to Hoilett, who curled in a low cross to Jackson-Hamel and the Montreal Impact forward tapped the ball in for his third goal in eight appearances.

Osorio made it 2-0 after an interception by captain Atiba Hutchinson. Samuel Piette passed to Jackson-Hamel who deftly flicked the ball past two defenders to an open Osorio. The Toronto FC midfielder celebrated his second international goal in front of the south stand, sinking to his knees.

Jamaica's best chance in the first half came in the 45th minute on a Kemar Lawrence cross that found a wide-open Romario Williams. But the former Montreal Impact draft pick's weak shot was parried by goalkeeper Jayson Leutwiler.

Both sides made changes in the second half, with Cyle Larin and Samuel Adekugbe the first off the Canadian bench. An injured Adekugbe lasted just seven minutes, replaced by Mark-Anthony Kaye at left fullback.
