Me, even if my hopes for the old country🇸🇻 to do well are non-existent. That the Salvadorean NT is w/o Alex Roldan & Nathan Ordaz for it(they’ve both chosen to play for their MLS clubs in the Club World Cup instead) just underlines my pessimism..

It'll be interesting how they go I think they could win it
 
come on my friend, can't see it whilst Costa Rica Mex keep alive though its early days.
Mex and USA have won the bulk of them and then there's Canada.
CR normally are very good.
Poch must be happy seeing the 5nil win - lets see if they can carry on deep in the play offs.

I didn't say I want it to happen.

Mexico conceded 2 to Dominican and USA are beatable it's knockout football anything can happen
 
did say - I think they could win it.
Early call I suppose by you.
True its knock out come the finals like any tournament - Mex has been hot cold for years and like USA/Canada have alot of crowd support that helps some.
We shall see.
DR have performed and improved alot last 5yrs.
U20's since '22 been trail blazing - prob quite a few in the current Snr squad now.
Their 2 best in Mex game 22/23 respectively.
Everyone is beatable on the day thats for sure.

Not sure how USA are going to run given they have Saudi next and then Haiti. Costa Rica pushed all the way by Suriname with the winning goal a penalty converted in the thirteenth minute of second half stoppage time.
 
coming 2 games.

Curacoa vs El Salvador 10.15am koff shortly
Noticed ol Dutchie Dick Advocaat is Curacoa's gaffa.
Christ he's been around, I think I recall we looked at him for the Roos way back ????

Canada vs Honduras 12.30pm koff
 
Buzzing atmosphere watching River P Urawa replay.
Always liked river plate kit with the red diagonal stripe.
 
yer NCB got me about it overnight, I screwed up hands up my bad, deleting it.
