USA v Bosnia Round of 32 World Cup in San Francisco

A lot of hype about USA team but they just look the same as other World Cups to me...

A lot of energy, OK at the basics, but not much skill or imagination. And so they lose to the first team that has the technical edge on them, which probably won't be Bosnia, but I wouldn't be shocked.

Yeah im leaning the same path. I have a bit on Bosnia to make it to the Round of 16. Not going too heavily on this game but can probably see a few cards to the Bosnian team here. They will look to slow down the pace as much as possible I'd imagine.

Had to have a bot of Bosnia at 8/1. Overpriced

40 yo Dzeko starts. He's older than Bosnia

Don't fancy Bosnia at all here but the US are too low. The US are playing some good stuff under Poch. Wouldn't read anything into the Turkey game, that was their 2nd team.

8-1    Had a couple for an interest G  , G luck mate

Sometimes you get a team who look rotten from the start, don't improve much, but somehow get through an opponent expected to beat them, and sometimes further than that, without ever playing well. Could Bosnia come into that category?

Jonathan Pearce, why is he almost whispering?

Why do refs keep blowing the whistle at corners for skirmishes in the box ffs, just let them get on with it and as the corner's taken, then blow if there's a foul. It literally happens at every corner given at the world cup.

could be a tight scrap

I remember when Pearce was the prime commentator for the BBC with all the plum gigs at the World Cup, now he gets the runts of the litter to commentate on like USA-Bosnia in the early hours.

Mckennie has a striking resemblance to Jo-Wilfred Tsonga

he's ok, imo.

Small back of overs here at 2.2.

not sure, could be decided by one mistake, a late goal for one side or the other. who knows?

too much diving today.

terrible defending, offside?

yep

Hmm yeah, goals looking highly unlikely here. I've done my dosh but still in profit after the earlier games.

This is rivalling Canada v South Africa for worst game of the round.

1-0

1-0

1-0

thought might make HT

States play Belgium next if win

hows that not a card

thought that was a clear card too on Robinson

that'll do for me , g luck all

Bosnia tallest team in it, 3 of their 5 goals have come from corners. That's their only hope based on that first half. If they go 2 down they will get a red imo but cards markets not in-play on the exchange

yanks have been lucky with 2 first goal OGs in both their wins and tonight was just as if not luckier

Ugh, horrible tackle and red card USA

Thats a terrible tackle upon review.

Probably not intentional...still though, gotta be a red.

That gives Bosnia a bit of hope now.

Doubt Bosnia will have a decent shot even now

Belgium have gone from 1/100 to make Last 16, to odds on to make last 8.

Wasn't even looking at player, accidental, yellow for sure, no way red.

Bosnia a threat from crosses and set-pieces. Awful footballing side but already were getting more of the play before the red. Can't see the US going out to these tho. Too incorrupt

100% a red, if there was discretion it would have been a yellow as it's the US. Intent doesn't come into it when it's endangering an opponent

No more goals here. Bosnia not good enough to take advantage.

Lol.what a goal that would have been

Bosnian manager looks like an extra from a Hammer Horror movie

2 dodgy decisions for teh US in 2 mins

Ref trying to make up, every soft decision for US now....

2-0

Quality free kick

Bosnia are awful.

Great knuckleball Fk but don't think it was a fk. Bos Red incoming

Bosnia keeper had about 10 minutes to get over and save it..

USA, USA :D USA TO WIN IT ALL, nah one more goal?

2-0FT. Belgium versus the Septics could go either way.

Just noticed the guy injured for the sending off didn't even get subbed and is still out there.

A yellow should have been enough

US without their top scorer v Belg

WTF was that keeper doing for that free kick - Sunday league attempt at a save.

It was a rake down the calf followed by a potential ankle breaker. Could give a red for either, intent doesn't come into it. Neither does whether he stays on (not that that's known when decision is made).

All three hosts are doing very well so far but Canada will most likely go out to Morocco on Saturday. I hope I'm wrong though.

The Fk was also excellent. V hard to hit & save. Nothing Sunday League about it. It was a knuckleball, not floated like you'd see a lot earlier from a further distance

B&H either non triers or $$$$$$$ .
The first goal was strange basically a tackle played back into the danger area.
The second they had 2 walls with a great big gap in the middle and the goalkeeper still manages to palm it into the net.
They were 1 down after the sending off and wasted god knows how long passing it around in the middle third.

I reckon what was more suspicious was why the ref was hesitant to give a red card . Secondly, why only the 2 cards all up in the game? (im excluding the one given to the manager) A bit of pushing and shoving and alot  of stuff let go.

that BALAGUN is ex arsenal isnt he played for BORO and couldnt hit a cows arris with the worlds largest banjo,19 goals for monaco,all about timing with these players

maybe Trump will have a word.

They way they could get around it, is if FIFA 'extend the red card to 3 games', only then would he actually be able to appeal a he can't with the 1 game ban.
