The obnoxiousness of the American team/Democrat behavior makes it harder to root for them. They are legends, god in their own minds.

This woke pussy sport should be replaced with an MMA World Cup.

Watching a bunch of effeminate looking / no-upper-body-strength so-called “men” running around has no appeal whatsoever.

The problem with almost all the sports federations, including U.S. Soccer, is that the leadership structure has been corrupted. A counterrevolution is needed. Kick the commissars out. Everything does not have to be politicized. But how can that be done? The left pushes for politicization 24/7/365, using every platform to exert cross pressure. Someone needs to stand up and lead. Be willing to ruthlessly fire the leftists. Or walk away and set up an entirely new structure.

How do they feel about the Republic of China (Taiwan) having to compete as Chinese Taipei? Additionally, they are forbidden on using their country’s flag?

Is that also against FIFA rules and international law?

“I was never a hockey fan until the USA team with a bunch of college players defeated the hated Russians in the 1980 Winter Olympics,”

The US hockey team could not use any professional players in the Olympics back then. They defeated, not just the Russians, but the Soviet Union, which included many additional now independent countries. The Soviets got around the no-professionals -in -the -0lympics rule by having top athletes like the hockey players be members of the military, where their
main job was training for their sport.

Does the author of the article not know that the opponent was the Soviet Union or does he not want people to be reminded about communism?

I believe a tie by the US and Iran and the England beats Wales then Iran advances.
