Mexico can get out of the group though along with the USMNT. The problem though is afterwards if Mexico tops the group they can avoid playing Argentina and instead face a rival they have a chance at beating Peru. While USMNT will unfortunately play either Brazil or Colombia and chances are they are going out.

The fact that Alexi wants to give all the blame to the players for the loss against Colombia, but the US beating Brazil in Copa America is because of Gregg is crazy.
Don't worry, Alexi is living in fantasy land. With the USA's last showing its not a given they get out of the group, let alone beat Uruguay, Brasil and Colombia to reach the final. He might as well just gone all the way and picked the US for Copa America Champions...

Alexis, respect what you say about fans, I was born in Colombia raised in America, I love America, when US plays against any other team I am rooting for US all the way, against Colombia, always Colombia, plus, in Colombia soccer is #1 in America not sure maybe 5th or 6th sport.
I'm pretty sure that Lalas is actually trying to be funny with his predictions. There is no way he can really believe what he says! Maybe USA ends up second in his group but I doubt any other concacaf team will go on after the group stage.
They got sloppy in the end and conceded so easily. You have to also accept that Colombia is currently undergoing a significant leap in quality. This is a team that beat Spain recently and is currently on an undefeated streak.
22:06 It is not that some people think that Berhalter is not the coach for the job no matter what happens, but it is that, when you dig deep into his tenure, he does not have a really good result and a string of very poor performances, last of which appear to become even more frequent recently. Many people say that tying England at the World Cup is a very good result. They just lost to Iceland at home just before the Euros, and they have been very inconsistent and have had a number of poor performances under Gareth Southgate. It is frustrating to someone like me to see that some people don't see this.
Most likely the team won't do good or bad in copa America. They will problem get out of the groups and lose to Colombia or Brazil in closer game than the friendlies. They will do well enough for GGG not to be fired but not well enough for anyone to feel confident about this team.
If you follow Conmebol closely you will notice that this Brazil team “can bleed” they are mid table in WC qualification, with that said it is still Brazil
I thought I would never hear a worse take than Alexis’s predictions, but the first caller gave him a run for his money. Two former coaches, both of whom were fired, to replace the current coach, lmaoooo
With viewership and attendance having a history of being low it’s probably not the best marketing strategy to change the USA crest to pride colors. I have no problem with it, however I would bet a significant portion of the population does.

Aside from Pulisic and Robinson, rest of the team played like bums…especially Gio Reyna. This late on the timeline, the usmnt must switch exclusively to playing as a counter attacking team.

Italians are the masters of counter attacking football.
Some of the commentary from Lalas here is not aging really well. The USMNT is now in a dire situation, wondering if we will even get out of Group stage. Yikes!
I find it very hard to place all the blame on the players and it's a little unfair. It's like you criticize the players for not overcoming the underlying problem. Its like blaming a QB for getting sacked when there wasn't anyone blocking for him. Every good coach knows how to beat Gregg's system and he forces the players to play predictable. I find it very frustrating when people who know the sport either don't see the obvious or they refuse to recognize it.
Like Mexico, the US needs to leave Concacaf and join Conmebol to play club and NT games. Concacaf is holding the US back. 48:30 Also, Lalas’ Copa America picks are a great joke.
Team USA wasn't on the field alexi, it was Pride FC. When the US federation wants to reprioritize their agenda and insult the country and that shield in the process there is zero reason to support that team. Stop guilting people in supporting this team for the sake of the country when they are disrespecting the country themselves. They clearly didn't learn from the women's world cup, where the arrogant players didn't respect the country that was on their shirt, now this federation wants to impose the same things to the men's team, which I'm sure do not want to push to the extent they are doing. I hope the u.s. loses this tournament the same way the women lost their wc. Mic drop!
