Wow what a huge game for the USA tonight at Honduras at 5:30 pm on beIN Sport. First things first – I can’t believe almost half of the fans at the game were Costa Rican’s at a game in New Jersey. Seriously? New York, New Jersey, hell the entire NE has proven they CAN NOT EVER HOST A US game that matters again. Trust me Columbus would have been 99% US Fans just as it has for every US vs Mexico game. Sad.
As for the game – the US definately struggled defensively. But we did have 75% possession and had plenty of great chances – honestly this should have been a 2-1 US win as Keylor Navas – GK for Costa Rica – proved his worth with 2 HUGE, WORLD CLASS Saves. Give him and Costa Rica credit – they are a top 20 team in the world with Navas between the pipes.
