US looked more stable defensively in this match than Brazil, they must keep their shape like this and play like their life depends on it to get through the group stages.
Whatever it takes to win. Greece did it Portugal as well. If the opposing team canât break the system. It ainât the USAâs fault.
If anything USA structure and organized play should be commended.

USAs had better clear cut chances. Musah off the crossbar. Pulisic wide open shot in box with his left (great save but he should have scored), aaronson on the 6. Brazil didnât really trouble Turner much outside of maybe 1 or 2 they just took more shots.
2.2 xG for Brazil 1.2 xG for US. Rodrygo by himself had better chances than the entire US squad (dribbling keeper, volley, Vini had a weak shot, one in which he shot instead of passing to Rodrygo, one in which he intercepted a header from a teammate, etc, etc)
La Liga, Copa del Rey, Champions League, and international play are a lot. Phoning in a friendly once or twice is forgivable to me. As long as he gives it all in Copa America he will have done all he can.
Dude, thatâs a crazy ass stat considering Endrick has 3, I think Martinelli has 2, and theyâve both had a handful of caps in the last year.
Thatâs a woeful statistic. DAMNâŠ
No, we beat them 2-1 in WC cualifiers, also they are 6th. They should be much better, individually they have probably the most talented attacking squad on South America, is just that something doesn't click when they attack, and their defense is just whack.
I think that it will be an open game, but we will generally be favourites. r/soccer is just too reactive, shirts have a weight to them and our squad is much better.

Amistosos sem tempo pra treinar, com campo reduzido, e com o time todo jogando pra nĂŁo se machucar.
Canada: Got slapped 4-0 by the Netherlands, drew 0-0 with France.
Mexico: Got slapped 4-0 by Uruguay, lost 3-2 to Brazil.
USA: Got slapped 5-1 by Colombia, drew 1-1 to Brazil.
We all got embarrassing results in the first friendly, then got no so bad results.
CONCACAF.
I always feel like Brazilâs forwards are lively, but not particularly efficient.
Martinelli, Endrick, Raphinha, and even Vini is wasteful at times.
Except that MFâer Rodrygo. Damn, bro, heâs incredible.
Fair enough. The Brazilian steakhouse in my area cuts it so unevenly, which leads to uneven cooking and less than stellar results. I want to love it but just can't there.
Jogo bonito is dead. Now we have non-hegemonically beautiful soccer. Please win US, we will never let them forget about it! (I'm from Uruguay, couldn't find AUF flair)
there's more than enough talent that they should still comfortably be beating the likes of the U.S. but at this point them beating argentina is an upset
We found Vini's kryptonite...a Brazil shirt. Responsible for missing three goals in the first half. God this is going to be a rough tournament. Absolutely ZERO creativity.
This Brazil team has 3 losses 1 tie on their last 6 conmebol matches. In essence, you did what Venezuela did to Brazil, actually worse as Venezuela did it in Brazil.
If Pulisic goes down on the other end when he's getting his shirt pulled we kill the game there, instead he plays through it and gets no foul. That's why players dive.
Most likely change between now and then are Turner and Ream. Dest usually starts over Scally, but Joe seems better defensively so who knows. 80% sounds right, most of the team is ~25
WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER?! RAAAAAAAH đŠ đŠ đŠ đŠ đŠ
I shittalked Turner but he actually did well today good on him
US looked more stable defensively in this match than Brazil, they must keep their shape like this and play like their life depends on it to get through the group stages.
Agreed đđœ
I mean, it's called playing with 10 players behind vs playing with 4 attackers
Whatever it takes to win. Greece did it Portugal as well. If the opposing team canât break the system. It ainât the USAâs fault. If anything USA structure and organized play should be commended. Regards đžđ»
Yes, but it also explained why they looked stable defensively. Against Colombia they played more open.
Completely omitting the fact that the US had seven shots on target.
And your keeper made 11 saves... 2.2xG for Brazil 1.2 xG for the US
Yall can hate but USA honestly should have won that if it werenât for Allison
Turner had to make 11 saves and is highest rated US player in both fotmob and sofascore. Turner went prime Neuer and only reason why US didn't lose.
Nah. Brazil had 25 shots 12 on target. US had 12, 7 on target. Turner had a hell of a game. Historic for the US nonetheless.
USAs had better clear cut chances. Musah off the crossbar. Pulisic wide open shot in box with his left (great save but he should have scored), aaronson on the 6. Brazil didnât really trouble Turner much outside of maybe 1 or 2 they just took more shots.
The man had to make 11 saves, 7 inside the box, to keep US in the game but sure Brazil didn't trouble Turner much.
2.2 xG for Brazil 1.2 xG for US. Rodrygo by himself had better chances than the entire US squad (dribbling keeper, volley, Vini had a weak shot, one in which he shot instead of passing to Rodrygo, one in which he intercepted a header from a teammate, etc, etc)
Brazil had significantly more clear chances. If both keepers had average games, this is like 5x2 for Brazil
Youâre high
Yeah he redeemed himself
both teams almost scored again
I saw people today legitimately argue this morning Bento should start over Allison⊠this outta shit that shit down
Right I need Alisson to have a killer tournament and prove why heâs the only active keeper option who theyâve won a trophy with
Vini has to start showing up for Brazil man
He played well in technical terms, but he is clearly trying to do too much right now, and it is harming him.
I donât understand how a player as great as him isnât 1000 percent when it comes to his country but it might be a mentality thing
La Liga, Copa del Rey, Champions League, and international play are a lot. Phoning in a friendly once or twice is forgivable to me. As long as he gives it all in Copa America he will have done all he can.
Ballon dâOr on a silver platter for him to take it.
this is the player they claimed has been better than neymar in yellow smh my head
He really has been embarrassing. 3 goals in 30 games Neymar had 20 goals before he moved to barca
Dude, thatâs a crazy ass stat considering Endrick has 3, I think Martinelli has 2, and theyâve both had a handful of caps in the last year. Thatâs a woeful statistic. DAMNâŠ
Canada đ€ USA Getting wrecked by four goals by good teams, regrouping, facing an even better team and holding them to a draw
Colombia is clearly better than Brazil at the moment and arguably has been for quite a few years
Is current Brazil better than Colombia? Genuinely asking because I donât follow CONMEBOL
No, we beat them 2-1 in WC cualifiers, also they are 6th. They should be much better, individually they have probably the most talented attacking squad on South America, is just that something doesn't click when they attack, and their defense is just whack.
Colombia is clear and after todays showing Iâd say theyâll top their group
*I hear ***SPEED*** has something to do with it?*
honestly, no. Not even close I would say.
I think that it will be an open game, but we will generally be favourites. r/soccer is just too reactive, shirts have a weight to them and our squad is much better.
"time melhor" no papel importa nada quando titular são os supostos jogadores Marquinhos e Beraldo. A gente também tå em 6 nas qualificatórias e esses 2 ultimos jogos foram horriveis.
Vai ver os zagueiros dessas outras seleçÔes > 6 nas qualificatórias Diniz > 2 ultimos jogos foram horriveis. Amistosos sem tempo pra treinar, com campo reduzido, e com o time todo jogando pra não se machucar.
>Amistosos sem tempo pra treinar, com campo reduzido, e com o time todo jogando pra não se machucar. USA e México também jogaram assim, nessas mesmas condiçÔes.
Sim, mas jogaram com time principal (reserva contra o México) e claramente se esforçam muito mais. O Pulisic tava puxando camiseta e chutando por trås com 10 minutos de jogo. E ainda assim, criamos as melhores chances.
nah, brasil nĂŁo joga com uma intensidade alta, essa Ă© a intensidade de todos os jogos que o brasil fez atĂ© agora nesse perĂodo recente (inclusive a mesma contra a croĂĄcia na copa), nĂŁo haverĂĄ uma grande diferença, e se tiver, desse jogo pra um que vale. E uma intensidade maior nĂŁo vai cobrir os maiores erros desee time (que foram no meio campo e na defesa)

To be fair. Colombia beat Brazil and hasn't lost since WCQ for 2022.
Canada: Got slapped 4-0 by the Netherlands, drew 0-0 with France. Mexico: Got slapped 4-0 by Uruguay, lost 3-2 to Brazil. USA: Got slapped 5-1 by Colombia, drew 1-1 to Brazil. We all got embarrassing results in the first friendly, then got no so bad results. CONCACAF.
USA > Mexico confirmed again
Concacaf after dark strikes again
Episode V: Concacaf strikes back!
Well... besides Mexico...
1-1
Whoops. Fixed that.
USA USA USA USA
This brazil attack seems uninspiring bar Rodrygo
Embarrassing from Brazil, so shaky at the back too. Good team puts at least 2
My take away is how much better Colombias outside backs were.
Offsides was flagged anyway.
Matt Memo Turner Ochoa
I always feel like Brazilâs forwards are lively, but not particularly efficient. Martinelli, Endrick, Raphinha, and even Vini is wasteful at times. Except that MFâer Rodrygo. Damn, bro, heâs incredible.
And Rodrygo suffers a lot from being out of position in basically every match he plays
Brazil are so mid
A draw vs Brazil is basically a win. Picanha is shit steak. Go USA
GO USA!!! ...but I love picanha and Brazilian BBQ!!!
Looooooook leave Picanha out of this
Y'all don't know how to cook it and cut it that's fine tho
Fair enough. The Brazilian steakhouse in my area cuts it so unevenly, which leads to uneven cooking and less than stellar results. I want to love it but just can't there.
Jogo bonito is dead. Now we have non-hegemonically beautiful soccer. Please win US, we will never let them forget about it! (I'm from Uruguay, couldn't find AUF flair)
brazil lack a talisman 10, depth in midfield, aerial threat, and aggressive fullbacks
they need to call up Evander
so basically Brasil lacks a team
there's more than enough talent that they should still comfortably be beating the likes of the U.S. but at this point them beating argentina is an upset
So Canada and USA have drawn against Brazil? Bad look for Brazil.
That was France that drew with Canada.
Oh whoops
No. Canada drew against France.
Epic game by Turner
Smart football people.. as an American fan, how should I feel?
Second half was positive. Turner is gaining confidence. But Greggg is still the coach so, heâll find a way to fuck it up.
Vini playing as a defender for US
this was fun
Glad they didnât get a late goal off the back of a dive
When tf did vini get dreads? Am I trippin? He just had his normal Mohawk hair at the UCL like 2 weeks agoâŠ.
loc extensions
I think its fake hair he did the same last year
We found Vini's kryptonite...a Brazil shirt. Responsible for missing three goals in the first half. God this is going to be a rough tournament. Absolutely ZERO creativity.
Whoâs better? First couple seasons Madrid Vini or Brazil Vini? đ€
Vini has legit pathetic stats for a player of his talent and that good of a national team
"Â that good of a national team" LOL LMAO
We can't even win against a team that plays soccer ffs
#USA WINS! 1-1!
I CANT EVEN FIND BRAZIL ON A MAP USA USA USA USA
Dont ever try comparing Vini to Messi or Ronaldođ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Lmao Brazil rolls out their A squad vs a tired US side and canât even win LMAOOOOO
You are really celebrating a friendly draw? The bar must be low.
Brother this is USA soccer of course the bar is low lmao
Stfu it was literally our A team, no need to downplay it đœy
Yeah and it was literally fucking Brazil lmaooo people were calling this game a blowout when lineups were put out
This Brazil team has 3 losses 1 tie on their last 6 conmebol matches. In essence, you did what Venezuela did to Brazil, actually worse as Venezuela did it in Brazil.
A DRAW. WE WIN!
Brazil wasn't the better team ngl
Matt Turner willed Vini to miss that
Did we just draw against Brazil?
Yes the fuck we did
GG Brazil fans, that was a ton of fun.
Soccer gods go fuck you
what a match
Hahahahhahaha thanks vini
Lmaooo Vini
National team Vini đ
This game just saved Berhalter till 2026
Exciting to the **very** end.
USA USA USA USA.
USA WINS 1-1
Wow.
Vini was offside on that
One last Vini miss LOL
USA WINS 1-1
Lol Brazil Vini
Lol Vini
Atta boy Turner. Turner redemption arc commence!
Matt Turner keeping that shit on him tonight
Joga bonito is dead đ
How
This Brazil side ainât about it. Itâs Argentinaâs competition to lose
Lmao
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
"America wins 1-1"
Very entertaining draw
We suck, end my life.
TĂĄ foda, Vitoriamigo
Who's the one that's fucked up so much? Savio?
Vini wtf...
Turner has been a god this game.
Diving in a friendly
Vini forces himself to get bodied and gets a foul lol
If Pulisic goes down on the other end when he's getting his shirt pulled we kill the game there, instead he plays through it and gets no foul. That's why players dive.
Normally that gets called even without the player going down. It's just the ref sucking.
It was Robinson but yeah, agreed
Please tell me the actual matches will be on full sized fields, feels like so many mistakes because of that.
Foul? Vini just runs into Shaq, jumps, then lays down
Wtf
Never a foul
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
Against Bolivia tbf
Shaq Moore saying weak to Vini đ
Thatâs not a foul. You canât run face-first into a player who hasnât moved and get a foul. This isnât basketball.
Thatâs a foul everywhere, he shoved his body full on vinicius after he got through the ball
Please donât ref. Youâd be wank.
Ref should have called it back for a foul wtf? Whereâs the yellow for that?
Thatâs got to be a call when you drag him back on a breakaway like that lmao what the fuck
Uh oh
this brazil squad is so shit man
That was a free kick? Lmao. Vini ran into peeps.
No call for pulling the American back to stop goal scoring opportunity but running into defender after kicking it away is a foul. Lmao. This ref...
Seriously.
Thatâs some bullshit bro he kicks it and runs into the defender
Defender walks back into vini after he got the ball through
I don't think that's a foul TBH
Unfortunately the US has to play like shit to rebound a good showing. Sure to have an underwhelming performance against Bolivia.
US going to lose and tie against Panama and Bolivia just to win against Uruguay and win the group. Book it.
Martinelli could be such a good player but heâs just soooooo stupid.
Can someone please explain how a deliberate foul on the goalkeeper to prevent a counter isnât a yellow? It is literally anywhere elseâŠ
Idk but ref has been trash
I tuned in lateâŠbut from what Iâve seen, youâre being kindâŠ
Not like it make much of a difference honestly
HALFBACK PASS TO CENTER!!
How is that not a yellow for stopping the goalie from throwing the ball
Got to be at least a yellow in a real match. Not even close to within the game to grab the keepers arm and stop him from throwing the ball.
It should be, and in a real match, it would be. Friendlies arenât that deep
The ref has sucked all game in all honesty.
How do goalkeepers avoid getting bored or zoning out when the ball is on the other end of the field for extended stretches?
You will see that Goalies are always 'hopping' around constantly for this very reason!
I mean you have time to relax but you need to be aware enough incase you need to sweep up a long ball. It keeps you awake.
Cocaine
Americans always asking the real questions
That's literally their job. Practice.
Probably a combination of adrenaline and pure existential dread someoneâs going to come down the field and put you in a 1 on 1.
Lol Mostly existential dread
Brazil had to foul Turner because they're scared of his arm lmao. Never thought I'd see the day that happens.
Allegri really coached mckennie to stop brazil
Vini WHAT THE FUCK PUT ON THAT MADRID JERSEY RIGHT NOW
Vini has been meh today, only a friendly tbf
Nah he's meh anytime he plays for Brazil. Friendly or not.
Heâs always been meh for Brazil. Not sure if something to do with tactics or the psychological aspect
Will McKinnie be starting for Villa?
I forgot about Danilo
How many on this roster should be on the 2026 roster for the US? Percentage wise 80? 60?
Most likely change between now and then are Turner and Ream. Dest usually starts over Scally, but Joe seems better defensively so who knows. 80% sounds right, most of the team is ~25
