Dominant 3-0 USMNT win vs. Mexico marred by cowardly fights and pathetic Mexico fans

The United States men’s national team dominated Mexico in the Concacaf Nations League semifinal with a 3-0 victory. What should have been a moment to celebrate was disgraced by fights between players and repeated homophobic chants from Mexican fans.

Before we get into the disgusting ending of the game, let’s take a quick look at the highlights.

New day, same Paramount+ BS as audio for Canada-Panama game way out of sync

Paramount+ has been broadcasting soccer for years now and still can’t figure it out. CBS has some of the most entertaining pundits on television with Kate Abdo, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher, Micah Richards, Clint Dempsey, Maurice Edu and many more amazing personalities.

All signs point to Canada winning the Concacaf Nations League

In the grand history of Concacaf, there's never before been a tournament where our gladiators have entered the arena and spectators have murmured amongst each other: "See them there? Them's Canada. They're going to slaughter everyone." 

At least not since Craig Forrest was standing between the sticks.
