Lincoln Red Imps - always the bridesmaid every year.

Beat Celtic once at least

Martin o'Neil tin tack

Awful Awful manager, stuck in the early 90's. Set Ireland back about 5 years.

Thinks because Brian Clough used him as a verbal punching bag all those years ago that he can still do that stuff in 2019

His training sessions (when he bothers to turn up) are 5 a-sides, he picks and tells the players the team an hour before kick off. An u11's manager would prepare his team better.

Canada just committed the most clear cut penalty in the history of penalties. 2-2 now.......against Haiti.

 

[Rook]

good lord canada. 3-2 haiti now

Canada loses the QT against Haiti. 3-2 after blowing a 2-0 lead. Canada really doesn't the credit they deserve for being the biggest clown show in world football. GOOD GAWD CANADA ITS FREAKING CONCACAF. ITS NOT HARD TO QUALIFY YOU CAN PLAY QUALIFERS IN @#$#@ EDMONTON AGAINST TEAMS FROM THE EQUATOR.

You have to get up pretty early in the morning to be a bigger clown show than Argentina or Italy tbh

Canada has money for facilities, is the 3rd most populous country in CONCACAF, gets to play arguably the easiest confed to qualify (Oceanina only gets 1), and has a unique home field advantage. They have only qualified once in their history. Italy and Argentina have won things.

I mean yea the quality of play is lousy in this gold cup. That being said I've almost always been impressed w/ the quality of play from some of the caribeeian nations. They don't sit back. Curacao's total population is 150K and they are holding their own (and their national sport is baseball). One year Guadloupe almost made the semis, and they aren't even reconized by FIFA.

Curacao has been so much better than we have this half.

They really did give a good account off themselves Curacao.

Fair play to them.

You could see the gulf of difference in fitness int he teams in that second half. The fact Curacao had to use all 3 subs because of muscles strain injuries.

They gave it all

Honestly seems a waste of time for USA and Mexico to play in the Gold Cup
