We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

That was a super lame way to go out. No fight at all. No nail-biting ending, as we've seen in many other games. :boo:

Dutch just a much better dude. They were the more experienced side. They were content to sit back, pick up the balls in midfield and use Memphis, Gakpo, Dumfries and co to run at the USA defense.

That being said, Pulisic’s early chance could have made it a very interesting game.

This game is a fair result. USA lost to a better and more seasoned Holland. I don’t believe different tactics and coaching could have made much of a difference.

Team USA went as far as it could given the path. We’ve a few things to work on. But s good foundation. Overall a good WC by the USA.

I'll be surprised if they do. They arent that good, when compared to some very strong teams in the tournament.

Ha ha.

Look, football makes fools of all of us.

The better team won. But I’m satisfied with what the USA did. We lick our wounds and go to the next cycle.
