Jozy Altidore very well may have the worst first touch of any person living or dead who ever got paid to play soccer. It is really kind of amazing how consistently he just mangles every possible chance.

Yeah, but the AR didn't flag it and the ref was blocked by Roger's body... so.... arm around the neck gets the call, I suppose.

Do I have red, white and blue tint glasses on, or are the Belgium dudes going down fairly easily?

Some nice passing for a bit from the US. Looked great until the eventual and inevitable give away...

 Howard and Torres looking good so far. Need to get Dempsey more involved, which I suppose would mean not playing in our half most of the time.

Not a terrible half for us. Shea is quality. Rodgers had a pretty poor half on both sides of the ball. Dempsey didn't do much other than the ball of Mignolet's face. Jozy was bad. Shocking. Torres seemed hit and miss.

The back four seemed pretty solid to me.

Everyone is going down easy because it's pouring rain and both sides are trying to run the ball to the goal. Belgium is a lot better at that than the US though
