[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MLS has an article/"highlight" of Yedlin outracing Messi (http://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2016/06/21/watch-lionel-messi-victimized-deandre-yedlins-speed-copa-semi). How embarrassing is that? Messi had a goal and 2 assists and probably could've had a lot more...but we'll take some pride in having a player that beat him in a foot race for a loose ball...And that is another reason why the MLS/US Soccer isn't very good -- too much focus on size/speed, not enough on skill and tactical understanding of the game.[/quote]

To be fair, there weren't many other highlights in that game.

Also, one of the major factors in that game was Argentina's pressure. (In other words, speed, endurance and aggression.)[/quote]

POSSESION.

Argentina's possession was the difference.

Americans focus on pure speed and size.  Their players looked like high schoolers they way they couldn't keep control of the ball or in their possession.

The pp's analysis is typical of the average American.[/quote]

And yours is typical of the person who comes in and needs to feel superior to everyone else in soccer, whether it's a constructive contribution to the discussion or not.[/quote]
