@LaJollaCreek no problem with those conditions, third world kids grow up with worse. How often is a foreign team forced to endure a spring blizzard in Colorado or playing in Columbus or anywhere else in the North when a southern venue could have been utilized?

our country club kids need to suck it up and play on any pitch where the game is scheduled.

They did play on that pitch and at the highest international level the fields can be better than what they played on last night. They didn't opt out of the match so I'm not even sure what your saying to be honest. It was idiotic to schedule games in Minnesota and in the midwest in the winter....so yes the conditions for these athletes should be favorable as to not cause injuries like foot long craters in the field. The field was garbage.

Sure , all I was pointing out is we force play on the same sorts of lousy dangerous playing surfaces.

Mexico coach hit in head by beer can in Honduras

Should be a multiple match ban for fans…if they can’t keep it safe, make them play behind closed doors while they figure out the security.

Panama drew with Costa Rica 2-2 tonight to join us in the semis. Mexico-Honduras and Canada-Suriname tomorrow to fill it out. Canada is looking good, but Mexico has some serious work to do (and unless Canada runs it up tomorrow night, we’d very likely get Mexico in the semi if they survive).
