00:00France-USA, something that we always see now, Kyle. Team USA not performing up to
00:07their capabilities. I know they weren't supposed to win yesterday. What did you
00:11take out of that three to nothing game and is there a chance that Team USA can
00:14still move on throughout these, not before we get to the knockout stage?
00:18Yeah, I said, you know, yesterday that I didn't think possible for the U.S. to
00:26really perform maybe where the fans want them to at this tournament. The roster
00:31isn't quite there. The coaching isn't quite there. It just doesn't feel like
00:35it's gonna click. And then you watch the first half of this game, the first 60
00:40minutes really, and you go, okay, maybe they could do something here. And then it
00:46all fell apart. So I don't think three nil is a fair reflection of how they
00:51played. But I think ultimately it might be a fair reflection of that the fact
00:59that they might be a little overmatched in this tournament because it just
01:03took a couple of individual errors to really bring it to a screeching halt.
01:08They played really well. There was a header off the crossbar that they had at
01:12one nil that could have tied it, which would have made it a very different game.
01:16So they played really well, but it's just a couple of goalkeeping errors and a
01:21couple of defensive mistakes and a failure to finish chances, and now
01:26you're staring at three nil to the hosts.
