@Cammy2487 @TartanArmyGroup It appears that the Scottish are doing their best lobbying to change the name of “New England” to “New Scotland.”

@undisputed104 1st, Americans like sports. 2nd, we can reasonably extrapolate from polls that tens of millions of Americans like what we call soccer.

A packed SoFi Stadium for Switzerland vs Bosnia and Herzegovina at noon wasn’t on my World Cup bingo card. We really underestimated the USA football love

@adamkjohnston This is a skewed and juvenile view that doesn’t understand how this situation is very common in international soccer. In the end, the kid is American and he’s representing us quite well.

This community note is hilarious because Balogun played for England’s U17 team first. Then he played a few games for the U.S. U18 team before spending years playing for England. When England had no roster spot for him, he chose the U.S. Can we community note a community note?

Folarin Balogun is a mercenary, not an American. In 2019, he played for England’s U18 team. In 2020, he played England’s U20 team. In 2021, he made his England U21 debut. In 2022, he said he was open to playing for Nigeria. Then he decided to play for the U.S. So patriotic.

Internet melt-down over USA soccer star Folarin Balogun: 🇺🇸Born in Brooklyn, NY. 🇺🇸He was eligible to play INTERNATIONALLY for the US, England and Nigeria and but CHOSE the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. 🇺🇸He scores 2 goals in opening game and he is a proud American.⚽️ You love to see it 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@BlairMcNally1 And you have a very good Scottish commentator on the call for that game in the US.

Did he really just say that? “What's stopping Iran from down the road restarting their nuclear program?” JD: “They would have to get a lot of money in order to rebuild their nuclear program. You’re talking about billions” I wonder where that could come from?! Honestly this guy 😂

@shaunvlog_ A lot of people have mentioned hurricane storm surges, and that is true. But in that part of the country, they also have to deal with nor’easters more often than hurricanes. Nor’easters come with storm surge as well, which these houses need to withstand.

@benwright They should also tweak it when a team is playing down a man: that graphic is far too large. Only showing the little red card under the team’s name is sufficient. BTW, it still says “Hydration Break” on FOX for tonight’s 🇵🇦 v 🇬🇭 match.

Fox has tweaked their on-screen graphics to now say "match break" instead of "hydration break".

@LUFC1992_v2 The beer spam is great. The U.S. has a very good craft beer / microbrewery scene all over the country. Congrats on the win. England looked impressive.

@TartanArmyGroup Those mountains should have a familiar feel to them as they are geologically related to the Scottish Highlands.

@AmFootballin Just being honest: looks very hockey-like. Especially something you'd see painted at center ice.

@tombogert Thankfully, all that matters is how the staff players approach the match. As indicated by Wright and Adams, they are not taking the Aussies lightly.

A war of words between Australia & the United States sparks the buildup before a top of the group clash on Friday Australians feel disrespected by American media looking to this game... but ironically, surely Australia felt the same when they drew USMNT? nytimes.com/athletic/73641…

@TheBabylonBee Love y'all, but there is much that goes into soccer that does not make for a boring watch when you understand the game.

@MLSTransfers The ownership group would never, but I wish the Union would put up a fight to sign the Hershey, PA kid whenever he's ready to move to MLS :(

@EricLDaugh @WarrenMcCommon If we can get away from calling them “Team USA” that would be cool. This is not the Olympics 😀

Not having World Cup football during the day is an absolute joke. Having to wait until the evening is painful.

@lukealeleGames In Boston, stop by Tree House brewing in the Prudential Center if you like good beer. Glad to see you’re a Fulham supporter. Antonee Robinson will be a key player for us at the WC.
