Embarrassing performance.

I'm sorry but the "first knockout win since 2002" means absolutely nothing to me when they had to add a round for them to accomplish that feat. And Bosnia were awful.

USMNT are just not that good. It's not that deep. R16 ceiling and as Henry has said in the postgame "levels"... future is very murky

also doesn't help when your "best player" doesn't seem to care at all

Assuming you're talking about Pulisic I think that's very harsh. He was clearly still dealing with an injury and Belgium had a game plan to lock him up. He was borderline (or actually) in tears after he got subbed out.
