Usa is a big favor in the game but it's a road game and usa has not been good in the road in qualifyIng. I win and usa is in . They make it with a tie as long as they are not caught on goal differential which is substantial. Also if they do end up in 4th place they could still make it if the win a playoff game. Not sure if it's a home and home playoff or winner take all.

Lost 2-1. Both other teams that we needed to lose or tie won because top 2 clubs had already clinched and didn't need to win or tie. This is a embarssing loss and the whole program should be blown up .

Up 2-0 on USA right now.
 
They deserve this after losing to a team with 1 win. What a pathetic coach as the USA is out of the world cup for 2018 after is Disgusting display of soccer. Just pathetic . Arena should be fired tommorow.

Good. This system needs to be flushed. Top to bottom.

Them making the WC wouldn't have done shit for them anyways. They would have been embarrassed.
 
holy shit... eliminated outright. fucking ridiculous.

first time we failed to qualify since '86, which is crazy when you think about how much progress US soccer was supposed to have made since '90.

still... not even making it is huge. now we have 5 years until the next one. lame.

oh well, my 2nd team, Italy, is in. the azzuri usually kick ass in WCs hosted in Europe.
 
Lost to a horrible club. Embarrassing to say the least
 
Oh, it's horrible. Without question. Watching the USA in the WC brings out some of my biggest passion.

But if they can't get out of CONCACAF, what are we doing here?
 
I like watching the wc and was really worried even playing TT even though they are bad . We have been terrible in qualifying this time around. So poorly coached its not funny. But all
We needed was a win or a tie vs this shity club and they couldn't even do that.
Very embarrassing.

Go Iceland!!!!!

this sucks.
 
well, at least we won't have to hear too much soccer talk next summer. We can concentrate on baseball.

Fox paid $400m for the World Cup and now the USA aren't in it

For some certain individuals in America, though, the ignominy of missing out on football’s central showpiece will be considerably greater than for others.

Indeed, Murdoch-owned broadcaster Fox, whose news arm have courted controversy after a string of sexual harassment cases, paid a staggering $400m for the rights to broadcast the 2018 World Cup.

Except the USA won’t be a part of it.

Fox’s deal stretches to the 2022 World in Qatar so it might not all be in vain but they’ll have to wait another four years until they find out whether it’s money well spent.

Many will enjoy the schadenfreude at play here as the network were awarded the 2026 World Cup TV rights without even having to bid for them – a gift from Fifa after the broadcast company bent over backwards to help move the 2022 World Cup to the winter despite the bid guidelines clearly stating it would be a summer tournament.

Rival broadcasters couldn’t get those 2026 rights which will now hand Fox a huge payday but the broadcaster will nonetheless take a hit next summer as the USMNT stays at home.
 
Yeah, we can concentrate on a lifeless baseball organization. Wee.

I'm sick over this. World Cup is 90000x better than anything baseball produces.
