Wrong. It was Mexico vs. USA 8:3.

😁
It’s the same story with national teams in any sport. 🤷
I always get the feeling there are more people from everywhere else than there are Germans. 🤷

Group A:
Canada 9 (+1)
Mexico 6
USA 3
Greece 3 (+1)
Spain 0
Slovak 0

Looks like the Slovaks are probably out today. They really need to scrape at least a draw against the home team to stay alive...

USA vs. Mexico...☕...I'm thinking we walk away with something like 9:6 or 9:7..☕...

I mean, what do we actually know about the player situation besides him just chucking those unlucky shots toward the sidelines? Everyone already knows what kind of mess we're heading into.

And now we've got some guy with a controller joining the fray too. 🤣

But honestly, the defense and Vican absolutely tore it apart during this quarter. 🙏

They don't know anything besides playing a heavy metal style 😁

They haven't found their rhythm yet 🙏

But hey, the defense is actually holding up pretty well.

Someone from the national team was lurking on the forums and passed the word along to the squad. That’s why we’re seeing better play now. 🙂

An easy 4-0 win.

We really should be looking at a 5-6 lead right about now.

But hey, I guess that’s why our defense is actually holding up.

They’re slowly finding their rhythm, game by game.

If they just keep this momentum going...

There's no way these guys can pull off three heavy hitters in a row. The bench is way too thin, and they just completely ran out of gas against the home team and the Greek squad...

Well, there it is. Down 0-2 before we even got settled.

Come on, offense! Let's actually see some movement out there.

For crying out loud, they’re about to throw away everything they worked so hard to build in the first half.

Just like those folks from Turkey🙏

What an absolute disaster of a performance from our side.

From 4-0 down to 4-4

👋

Only Americans could pull that off

Just gotta keep this momentum going.

If there were a world championship for pure arrogance, we Americans would take the gold. We'd crush the Mexicans in the finals.😁

4:4 ☕

When's tennis scheduled? These people are driving me crazy.

Back in the day, our people were more like... well, ourselves

If you don't have the guts, you just don't have them.

Same old story, yet we end up with an extra man on every single attack.🤮
