Saving the Worst for Last: USMNT Plays Terribly in Loss to Belgium
from Feed the Fire: A Chicago Fire Podcast · host Bleav + Glass House Soccer
Hey, soccer fans! Let's talk about it - the USMNT lost to Belgium in the FIFA World Cup. It was their worst performance of the tournament by far. The Yanks never looked into the game, playing disjointed on offense and scrambling on defense. Not one of the Americans had a stand out performance, and ultimately, defense errors by Tim Ream, Chris Richards, and Matt Freese led to the Red Devils running up four goals. Tune in as Nick looks at the individual performances of the US players, how their position groups played, and what was the ultimate issue in the match. Also, he looks at how this impact the US Soccer program going forward and what changes could help the American soccer in the long term. Tune in and join the conversation!
