Game shown On paramount +. May also be shown on CBS sports channel. 5:00 CDT
This is another tough away visit and Panama needs a win so they will be ready for the USA team.
I think the lineup will be with those players who didn’t play Last Thursday against Jamaica or were a late substitute. I am not sure this is the case, but like the last triad, Berhalter will shuffle his lineup to use his depth and keep his players match fit.
I want to see Hoppe get a chance up top.

Saw where Steffen and Antonee Robinson (UK travel restrictions) and McKennie (quad injury) did not make the trip to Panama.

Steffen is not a factor as Turner has been outstanding in goal since the Gold Cup. CBS sports is not showing the game according to TV guide. May need to purchase paramount plus which also gives you access to the other CONCACAF games.

This lineup is an absolute joke. Gregg takes benches the clear leader in Adams, our best scorer in Pepi, and keeps in ARRIOLA who has done NOTHING for the team at all. Why does everyone over think qualifying? PLAY THE BEST PLAYERS AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES!! WHAT IS HARD ABOUT THIS!?!

Why does everyone over think qualifying? PLAY THE BEST PLAYERS AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES! WHAT IS HARD ABOUT THIS!?! With 3 games in 7 games, Berhalter is gambling on his team depth, although when it comes to scoring goals, I wonder what depth he thinks he has. Has Zardes ever been a Bonafide goal scorer? If I was a gambling man, I would lay a bet he doesn’t score today, because he rarely does when he plays for team USA. Now that I have stated such, I hope he proves me wrong. Arriola? Goal scorer? This is a simple game. Goals win games. Not sure we have the goal scorers. Let’s hope we do.

Not too good in the first fifteen minutes for USA as we seem to be playing too casual. Too many errant passes. 0-0.

Our crossing is pathetic. Either we play a lob pass to the other side that allows the defenders to solidify their position and defend easily or we play the ball to the defender’s feet. 21st min…0-0.

30 minutes in and still scoreless. USA attack is non existent. Zardes has little to any touches. Not a lot of possession for the USA. We seem to be playing down to our competition’s level again. Very frustrating to watch.

Turner with a great save (despite offside call) after Acosta coughs up an easy ball to his feet that pops up over his head and turns it over to Panama. Team USA seems to be asleep.

This is the worst midfield we’ve seen in a while. Acosta and Le’jet offer nothing in the attack. Why is shaq Moore (doesn’t start for his second division Portugal team starting over Dest (starts for Barcelona)!? Bello has been awful too. Just garbage all round. As I type this shaq Moore shoots from 40 out for no reason for a goal kick.

Berhalter is such an idiot man. I’m fuming. We have high quality players just sitting there watching in a WORLD CUP QUALIFIER. This is not a friendly. This is a meaningful game and we have our JV squad out there

Panama are dangerous on crosses and corners.

It is the worst of our gold cup squad. Bello should have never been called up much less selected to start and play in a qualifying game. Flat half for USA. 0-0 halftime.

Probably the worst half so far this cycle. Nothing offensively. Poor defense from both outside backs. Lots of sus play McKenzie. Nothing from the mid field except going backwards when they have the slightest pressure. Arriola ineffective as usual. And of course Weah won’t look great if his teammates can’t play him the ball properly. Zardes had an opportunity to play Weah I’m towards the end but, of course, decided to kick in 30 yards backwards. It’s just bad. And the coach is to blame.

I was going to say such, but I think that first half against Honduras was just as bad. Berhalter did not seem to learn that Bello is a liability not an asset. Arriola, Zardes, Llegett all are useless. 58% possession for Panama. Talk about playing to your competition’s hand.

Aaronsonn and Adams look to be warming up at halftime.
Both in. Musah and Arriola off.

Shaq Moore is doing a really good job of turning the ball over.
