Please. This vaunted USWNT lost to FC Dallas U15 boys team 5-2 recently. It's great that we are good in a sport that only 8 y/o girls care about but dont kid yourself TIT CUP is meaningless. We're great in a sport that the rest of the world is terrible at. Means very little. Tix are $10 for group stage matches and there were still only 13K announced at England v Scotland match (capacity 38K).

I think it's France..?

I just remember seeing a TV set up in front of Eiffel Tower. Could be wrong though.

Copa America kicks tonight when Bolivia face Brazil. Away from La Paz Bolivia definitely shitty, but dont forget thay have played Day 1 spoilers almost every year of Copa. Still, Brazil cruises to a 2-0 victory with 2 second half net pops.

The American women look dominant and are currently putting a hurt on Chile.

There is a different World Cup being played in England right now, and not on the Women's side :)

Some teams though are common - Australia, England, South Africa, New Zealand, [Jamaica/West Indies]

USA opens the Gold Cup v Guyana tonight, 10 PM ET.
Guyana is ranked 177th in the World.
If they can't win this one, shut it down.

Also 1,400 people have died, many of them Nepali, working in Qatar, building the infrastructure for a November 2022 World Cup tainted with corruption.

Just feels like we have taken a step back since 2014.

Klinsmann mighta been right to not build from MLS. Our game is just far less creative.
