About damn time, really would've liked this saga to have been finished before this camp started so they could have a little bit of positivity going into these games. Vibes just seemed completely off throughout the whole team. Poch has his work cut out for him.

US women won last night over Mexico in the U20 Womens World Cup 3-2, extra time goal

For a team that couldn't even get out of the group stage last cycle this is pretty big.

US had an incredible comeback coming behind from 0-2 down in late, late stoppage time, literally a minute left when they scored to break the deadlock. Then another one in quick succession in the very late stages of stoppage time.

Game ended up going to PK's where USA won 3-1 on penalties and advanced to the semifinals against North Korea.

North Korea being in a semi of any kind is amazing but an age group semi makes me wonder if they made some kind of fundamental change at the grassroots? Normally age group tourneys belong to those with the bigger player pools or specialized academies.

Not really a whole lot of surprises in there. Couldn't expect wholesale for the first camp, I suspect next camp we'll see more of his stamp on the roster

I did raise an eyebrow seeing Steffen back, but with seemingly all of our goalies having issues, I'm not opposed to bringing him back.
