I think usa team did great job in the group stage. That winger N7 is a great baller. I hope they took some lessons and experience that will be useful and push them forward in future competitions especially 2026 world cup at home.
Thank you, we hope that some of these young talents can become good players for our main national team before 2026. Best of luck to Morocco, we can’t wait to have you and your incredible fans here in the USA in 2 years!
I’ve always enjoyed your videos but sorry guys how can you not say that was a clear penalty? And McGlynn was really, really bad. Sure he can play some long balls but overall he lacks any ability to defend or put intensity, Tessmann is just as slow but has more to his game. Great work as always guys but those two opinions were blunders
I think that McGlynn and Tessmann together in midfield is a recipe for disaster, you can’t have two slow guys in there especially with how useless Mihailovic was. It probably should have been Dietz starting but Busio was a huge loss.
Hakimi isn’t the best defensively???? Have ever watch any Hakimi’s games either in psg or brusia dortmend or Real Madrid. A defender job is not only defend but that’s where a structured strike start from
Hakimi is a world class player and great defensively, I meant that he’s better at some other things than defending. He’s still one of the best defenders in the world.
"It should be noted that Spain was ranked first in the group. But when they did the calculations, they saw they would face France. That’s why, in the last match, they decided not to keep the same players. They made a change, practically replacing most of the players to fall into second place. That’s why Egypt took first place. This way, Egypt faced Paraguay and Spain faced Japan, so Spain would play against Morocco. It’s similar to what they did during the 2022 World Cup when they had a match against Japan. They preferred to lose that game. This affected Germany since they didn’t qualify because Spain lost. Spain did the same thing in the 2022 World Cup to avoid facing France, which is why they ended up facing Morocco. Unfortunately, they lost. So, due to Spain’s calculations, I think that even during the Olympics, they will end up losing."
Completely agree, even in these Olympics the players who play in Europe were better than the MLS players. We’ve been doing a better job of that in the past few years, but hopefully all our best young talents start moving earlier.
Morocco simply has better individual players than US. Kudos to the Moroccan soccer. This win means a lot to Moroccan people! US has swimmers, runners, millionaires NBA players to name a few 😂
Very true, the rest of the Team USA athletes have been doing pretty well so far this Olympics. Glad that Morocco has a good chance to win gold in football!
Love America but please don't get made because Moroccan teams are just better Moroccan football has changed since 2014 everything has changed. I hope Morocco will get the gold. Trump 24 love Donald Trump ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi guys. Congratulation to Morocco and best luck to wold cup.But let me give you some information: The moroccan team wasn't complete because several internally renowed players were not alowed to leave their club exemple : Brahim diaz (real Madrid), Ismael Sabiri (psv), Chadi Riad (Crystal palace), Adam Aznou (Bayern Munich), Selim El jebari ( Atl Madrid) . And let's not forget that this team won the african cup under 23 and the final was contested between Morocco and Egypt, and those two team, precisely are already in the semifinals off Jo 2024
Yes, the USA team was also missing a lot of players. North Africa has been looking good this tournament, it would be cool to see a Morocco vs Egypt rematch in the final. Best of luck to Morocco!
Moroccan in Colorado I love both teams but Morocco much better hard luck USA next Tournament USA team still young and talented thank you guys for your awesome analysis Peace
Congrats to Morocco 🇲🇦👏🏽 The better team won. I thought Morocco would win, but they were even stronger than I gave them credit for. This was a very good measuring stick game. High quality opponent and we just aren’t at the level. Disagree on starting lineup. With no Busio, think the lineup was fine as he started the players who had played the best thus far. I could see starting Booth over McGlynn for this one to just have a little better speed. But think how the players played was a much bigger factor than the lineup. Let’s go U-20s… dominate CONCACAF 😄🤦🏻♂️
Keep you heads up guys ! You’ve a promising team for the future! Btw Relationship between Morocco & USA are more stronger and historical than a lot of people think! Morocco was the first country that recognized the USA as free country . All love ❤
Good conversation again. Hard luck to the USA team, Hopefully the team and the coach will learn from the mistakes made,not a lot of time left for the world cup,most of these players will be ready for 2026. My humble opinion,the USA team was very slow and that favors Morocco and also the players looked tired,the coach didn't make the right changes. Hopefully we will have a good team in 2026. Also,the team captain was passive toward his teammates,he wasn't organizing and directing. Keep the good work I can see a bright future for you guys.
Thanks for the kind words! You’re right, in particular the USA midfield was very slow, the coach didn’t select the right players for the game. Hopefully they learn from this and improve for 2026, it’s going to be an important World Cup for us. Best of luck to Morocco in the rest of the Olympics and the future!
Morocco beat Argentina in their opener so it was always going to be unlikely the US would beat them tbf. The team’s simply not at the level required to challenge the top nations at this moment.
Morocco are a great team, they were always going to be heavy favorites. It’s just frustrating that we can never seem to even get close to upsetting a team better than us, many other nations can.
@@AMERICANULTRASTALK I think you guys should play a more pragmatic style where you’re firstly a lot tougher to break down and play counter attacking. Build a strong spine.
You guys don't understand player ratings. You can't give someone a 1 unless they have two own goals. LOL. Mihailovic doing nothing is a 5. You have to make a mistake or do something bad to get below a 5. Goal gave Ronaldinho a 10 for a hat trick against Chievo or someone once. A hat trick is a 10. Doing jack shit is a 5.
Morocco are a very good team, and we didn't play well. Full credit to Morocco for making it difficult and putting us under immense pressure from the jump. But, I'm left disappointed. In important matches where we aren't favored we shrink rather than rise to the occasion. I have to see more in these opportunities to improve my opinion of the current direction of the program.
You guys will eventually have your moment of growth too trust us we were underdogs that were made fun of and belittled but our king changed management and brought back all of those Moroccans that wanted to give their country justice along with also Moroccans (in morocco) that trained hardly hopefully usa will do better in future and hopefully we'll win against Spain 🇲🇦❤️🇺🇸 (btw the worst aspect for me was seeing players tackling/pushing a lot that is dangerous in football the dude with the headband and long hair was doing it a lot)
Agreed. Morocco are definitely a much better team than us but we didn’t even have a chance, and that has to change. Worse teams beat better teams all the time but we can never seem to do it.
You guys do show way too much respect to better teams. If you can’t beat them with quality you have to at least make it tough for them to break you down then try scoring on the counter. A more pragmatic style is needed until you have the players to compete.
@@AMERICANULTRASTALKI think you need to adopt a more pragmatic style making yourselves harder to break down and play on the counter until you have better players who can compete at a higher level. Tournament football is very different and even better teams use it. Look at England and France. Not great to watch, but will give you better chance of progressing.
I don’t know if it was the pressure of the occasion, the Moroccan crowd, or something else, but we were off our game today. Disappointing end to our Olympics campaign, at least our other athletes are doing the nation proud.
I typically agree with this channel but how can you say that is not a penalty??? Harriel sold and goals change games, knew he’d be a liability all along. Like Tac has said, he was being bailed by paredes help, today he cost us the tournament.
I think it’s very harsh to say that he’s been bailed out by Paredes, Harriel was one of our best players in the group stage. However, he let us down in a major way today.
