Pretty garbage but about what I expected from a bunch of MLS guys playing together for the first time and switching formations a bunch

The Spork kid looked good as a sub at least?

What do you mean?

Makes sense for Suriname, Guyana, and French Guiana to be part of CONCACAF for geopolitical reasons. They share cultural ties and common languages (Dutch, English, and French, respectively) -- and their economies are more integrated -- with their Caribbean neighbors.

Israel is a member of UEFA for geopolitical reasons.

Greenland has the option to join CONCACAF for geographical reasons or UEFA for geopolitical reasons.

https://www.socawarriors.net/senior-team-news/23864-fifa-concacaf-to-act-on-death-threats-racism-to-t-t-players.html

quote:

Angry Mexican fans hurled racial slurs and threw bottles at the T&T players during a Group A encounter between T&T and Mexico at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, USA on Saturday. This situation was further exacerbated by a clash between Mexican winger Hirving 'Chucky' Lozano, goalkeeper Marvin Phillip and defender Alvin Jones at the end of the first half which resulted in Lozano being rushed to the hospital with a suspected injury to the head.

The game ended in a goalless draw as coach Angus Eve employed a counter-attacking strategy that, not only frustrated the tournament's defending champions, but prevented them from scoring.

Eve, yesterday confirmed to Guardian Media Sports that because of death threats to him and his players- Phillip and Jones, there has been heightened police presence at the hotel where the team is currently based.

...

On Sunday, Guardian Media Sports got a glimpse of some of the things that were said on the TTFA football page. Among the comments were: " Y'all some of the nastiest people I've ever seen play soccer. Y'all just go against Mexico to try and injure them. We're starting a petition to kick y'all out of the Gold Cup. Y'all aren't worth it"; "y'all some hoes for what cha did to Chucky Lozano"; "You will pay for Chucky Lozano you monkeys,".

...

Lewis who is also chairman of the Sport Integrity Global Alliance as well as the Gender Race-Inclusion and Diversity Standing Committee said: "What I was told it was trolling, but obviously it was racist, outright racism, the term used, the 'N' word, monkeys.

We can't hide from it, the fact that it is something that I have raised on more than one occasion, about the issue of racism in global sport. In April the T&TOC joined a boycott of social media for a weekend in protest of racism, racial activities taking place on social media. So I was initially angry because even though you're aware of it when it happens in an open way, it is triggering."

...

Mexico has been fined 15 times since 2015 for behavior from fans in the stands. An update to FIFA's Disciplinary Code allowed FIFA to levy bigger penalties for repeat offenders, culminating in a potential ban from competitions including the World Cup.

Why would FMF be sanctioned for the actions of online trolls who may or may not have been Mexicans or Mexican-Americans?

Those comments could have been written by Napoli or U.S. supporters for all we know.
