I'm still impressed that despite the loss, the US essentially matched France today statistically with a notable

Thank you

Counter the arguments

I’m not countering anything-just pointing out that you are exhausting

3-0 isn't a slaughter. If you think so, you simply don't understand soccer. Yes France has better finishers. That's

France only played well in spurts

A psychic victory?

Moral. I like putting my own spin on terms

It just makes you sound stupid.

Thanks for the insult. Coming from you I take it as a compliment

Seems like you wanted to type Pyrrhic victory- but that also wouldn’t make sense

RalphWiggam

Jul 24, 11:31pm

Nope. Phyrric is actual victory at too high a cost.

Archaea

Jul 24, 11:34pm

It was a made up term that lacked the punch you hoped for.

Sid Vicious

Which is why it didn’t make sense.

Not true I knew it was U23 plus 3 overage

And I quote: “How good is this France team?” Stick to making bad portmanteaus.

Read again. I didn’t claim to know who sent good teams

Archaea

Jul 25, 12:09am

Right. You didn’t understand the level of competition. Your attempt at pivoting the point of my post is denied.

shimmy

Jul 25, 12:12am

Where is the pivot?

Archaea

Jul 25, 12:24am

I said you didn’t know the level of competition. You said you knew it was u23+3. Knowing it is u23+3 doesn’t mean you

Soccer is a weird sport. One miscue can lead to a loss by a much better team

Not knowing soccer is a badge of honor. Like not knowing knitting. Boring. I can watch nearly any international sport

At least one person replying to me in this thread is aware he doesn't know soccer.

It's good to see negative soccer Archaea back. The one who constantly ripped the BYU women's coaches, team and games

What has this team done in scoring goals to suggest it can score?

Archaea

I know enough. Far too much probably. Living in Europe for 10 years will do that. Still boring.

0-3 at that level is a shellacking.
