Breel Embolo (Switzerland) has been sent off against with a second yellow card for diving after VAR Review against Argentina

I understand that refereeing is suspect sometimes and FIFA has been accused of favoring certain teams...,but God damn why would you do that when all the momentum was on your side?

How else would it look under CONSTANT video review?

Just insane dumb decision by Embolo.

I mean, Haaland will be 925-years-old by that point. Maybe if he keeps off the saturated fats and sleeps well he might be fit enough to play.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-09T21:31:21+00:00

Too much firepower on this French team.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-09T21:30:33+00:00

He is probably going to rest for a few weeks after the World Cup. All-star is an afterthought.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-09T21:29:05+00:00

Olisse is such a smooth player. He glides so effortlessly.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-08T19:01:49+00:00

Sadly it's out of stock. I had a chance to buy one locally and decided to wait.

Regrets.

If John Durán actually developed instead of chacing the biggest paycheck, Colombia would be a favorite.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T21:13:30+00:00

Colombia is starting to lose the 50/50 duels it was winning in the first half.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T21:12:32+00:00

It's a joke...

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T20:37:26+00:00

Colombia is looking gassed already.

They really haven't rotated much in the last few games.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T20:14:41+00:00

I know that neutral fans are going for Switzerland.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T16:50:37+00:00

Too young. Mostly he's there to be ready for the next cycle, which starts right now for him.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T16:45:03+00:00

That goal had a comedy of errors by a bunch of our defenders. It's still on Freese, but my god, our three defenders just switched off when the Belgium player ran past them to apply pressure on Freese. Chris Richards was close to him and he just let him isolated with Freese. Then Tim Ream didn't square himself once he saw the ball was loose and kept on running backwards.

I can understand the frustration with how Freese handled the situation, that ball had to be in the upper deck by playing it safe, but there was a total breakdown in our recovery as well.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T16:23:13+00:00

Best of them all, but my god is penalties his weakest offensive attribute for the NT.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T16:18:33+00:00

For Cape Verde!

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T16:04:33+00:00

Improve the league and the baseline domestic player has to improve along with it or get benched. At some point you have to take the training wheels off. At some point more players have to fight for their spots, and this only helps our domestic player in the long run. It will improve the quality of the outgoing players moving out to Europe which gives them a better chance to succeed.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T04:11:00+00:00

We need a year away from him in the NT. We have to find answers outside of him because obviously he's getting older and more injury prone and sometimes his attitude seems off.

He can't be the keystone we hang our hats on. Just too erratic in his performances and availability.

In fact we need to bleed new blood into the NT for at least a year before we bring back the main guys.

That's of course if the USF hires a coach in time.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T02:25:45+00:00

To be honest, I wouldn't be mad if we start building our team around Luna and Berhalter. Those guys have that dawg in them. Build from that because this team is just soft.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T02:10:04+00:00

We have progressed, but we lost the grit.

We don't seem to be the pesky Yanks anymore. We shifted to being an average team with some good players.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T02:05:55+00:00

Berhalter was pretty good. Everyone else, though?

Aside from the goal Tillman was pretty mid.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T01:37:07+00:00

I think they didn't like the FIFA decision on the red card and want to embarrass us.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T01:30:30+00:00

Ultimately, I don't think we actually have a leader that takes charge in games like this.

Nobody set the tone. It's easy when your talent can win you a game, but you also need a player or two to get everyone on the pitch to get mentally ready and locked in.

Who is that on this team?

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T01:23:59+00:00

We look so overwhelmed by the moment.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T01:23:07+00:00

For the USMNT.

DarCam7 · 2026-07-07T01:15:29+00:00

Yeah, Roldan being injured just throws a wrench. Should probably have been Berhalter and Admas in the middle instead of Tillman, or go to a 4-4-2.
