This both makes sense in that we weren’t famaliar of this (wrong) application of the law, and also doesn’t make sense because how it was (wrongly) applied seemed good 🤷♂️

if you're looking for a more tactical explaination of what the USMNT was executing at such a new level, look no further than Carlon (who's clips like this are fantastic). follow him and learn. this captures the stuff happening ANY national team would be proud of.
4 variations of movements that the #USMNT used last night to create tons of threat for Paraguay's back four, and some detail around these mechanisms:
- Complementary WB & 10 movements
- 10s attacking shoulder of FB
- Depth = cleared backspace
- CMs releasing from deeper

Is it me or is Pochettino the Hydration Break Maestro? The #USMNT started strong, but they took it up a notch after the break.

This team would not even qualify out of CONCACAF. Some people have such a weird misunderstanding of what makes a world class talent in this sport.
btw, can we focus on getting back to being the best at the most American of all sports, baseball?

This is not news. And was publicly discussed when he was hired. 🤷♂️

Love hearing nuggets like this...USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino was only hired because hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin (and others) helped cover his salary worth several million dollars annually.
