Just break for 15 mins so people can go to the loo and maybe grab a drink?

Can understand half time shows for sports that go on a lot longer, but just no need for football.

It’s also pretty dull.

But this may be because I’m an old fart.

Would love for us to have our eye on Richard Rios. Been so impressed with him this tournament
Me too. I know he’s playing in the midfield, but the positions he’s been taking up seem to map really well onto how our rb plays. Probably unnecessary though now that we bought Gray.

You're more likely to get a stampede if all these people got up for 15 minutes. I'm extremely concerned for post match & also exiting the stadium. Conmebol's lack of security presence in stadium & out of stadium has been shown already & this stadium is way over capacity with alcohol still being served. It's a powder keg. Next time, USSF cannot allow Conmebol to take full control of the organization of the tournament as they have proven they can't handle it. The US can easily handle these big events. It has done so a multitude of times without incident. Conmebol's abject failure reflects poorly on the US but the plans & set ups for the WC are VASTLY different than this one with multiple perimeters set up so you can't just go up to the gates without tickets like what happened here.

The way these players absolutely fire the ball at each other, casually control it and pass it on.

Really impressive level of quality.

South Florida is a fascinating part of America. Northern Florida is pretty much the social and political equivalent of Alabama or Mississippi while South Florida is basically Little Havana or Bogata.
Add Caracas, Port au Prince, Rio, Kingston and New York as well. (hint check out my name)

Colombia FA President and his son arrested before the game for battery. Prince Harry and Prince George need to step it up!
