Was there to watch the game in person and it was great! Lovely to see the boys play as usual and to grab a nice win with plenty of goals. Let's go USA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
In the highlights we don't see a lot of actions from Lee Nguyen (except for 1 perfect pass to Zardes who should have put the ball in the goal) but if you watched the entire game he was very involved in the attacks from the midfield. He linked well with Bradley and Jones. He controlled the ball with confidence and made some good runs into the box. It seemed Klinsmann used Lee in the same position Dempsey used to play. In my opinion Lee accomplished his task. We'll probably see him more in upcoming games.
@@funlanguages7922 because he was one of the most experienced keepers available, i dont think hes going to be called up anymore now that hes close to retirement
@@danerollman823 and thats why usa always lose because of him... I swear I saw many younger usa keepers better than him.. I hope too cause im a fan of usmnt.
Really impressed with Acosta and Nguyen, hope this gets Jozy going, he hasn't been the same since Ghana in Brazil, overall I'm fine with the performance, we need to have big year
The only first team players who played in this game today are Bradley and Altidore (maybe) so inb4 we almost lost to the Icelandic C team or what not. I agree our defense is atrocious and needs to be fixed but we were also missing Cameron, Brooks, and Yedlin who are easily our 3 best defenders. And for those who are quick to criticize Iceland obviously had never watched them qualify for Euro 2016, when the beat the Netherlands twice.
Zardes and Jermain Jones are also consistent starters. And yes Iceland is very good but it looks as though none of their A players were on. This is not a good showing for US. Defense looks to still be terrible but it's only a friendly so we can't judge 2016 after this. U.S. still has many concerns. How will Klinsmann fix the defense? Who will replace Zardes and Yedlin if they don't improve? Should US still roll with the bad form Guzan or Howard or should they look to the younger keepers like Bill Hamid and Jesse Gonzales? We won't get a true answer to these until US plays Guatemala in March.
Honestly, i dont mean to sound biased but the reason people hate american football is because they figure that once we figure the sport out we will have the resources and atheletes to compete in the World Cup
+southern california gaming no clue how to spell his name but the RM #18 deserves a start over Zardes. As soon as he came in the buildup play completely changed
***** someone playing politics because of his dad thats why eh still on the team. i like the younger usa team klinmanns use vs germany in europe last yr fast pace young hungry not these old farts who had their chance
y'all joking right? Bradley facilitated that whole game every shot on target Bradley had something to do with it. Our attack is nice Iceland was just sitting back with like eight players in the box so we weren't getting great openings.
+Adam Brown finally some one who knows about the sport . Bradley is one of the best USA midfielders . I agree with everything you said . I can't believe how someone can say Bradley is on the USA team because of politics . Lol idiots
Intense game! Really impressed by Birnbaum and Keisewetter. Iceland maybe deserved a draw, but I'm glad the USMNT won xD. Anyways, I have a review video about this match on my channel if you guys are into that :)
Not a overall super great performance, but some fresh hungry faces, and the team showed they would fight for the win. Still room to improve across the field, but a good start for a recovery 2016
+NewUA-camSucks. Wow you sound pretty dumb right now. Basic rules? When did I ask about any rules? And even if I was asking about "basic rules" it could be that I'm new to the sport and I'm not familiar with this kind of stuff. So you need to stop being so close-minded cause it makes you seem really stupid.
ENERGY FULL, STAMINA FULL AND POWERFUL GAME.......... ALL PLAYERS IS DRIBBLING FULL, TECHNICAL FULL, STAMINA FULL, STRONG FULL, TECHNICAL FULL, PRACTICE FULL, STRONG FULL AND POWERFUL................ BUT NO 15 ,17 ,19 IS EXTRAORDINARY........ ON THE HOL, WINER IS WONDERFUL........
+Joey Laviano I just saw the new logo. Not a fan. Not sure why they don't use the Great Seal. Or even the Crest from the Centennial Jersey from 2013. Now that'd be awesome imo
Enough with the MEX USA who's better shit!! That's been played out for years and really boring.There both great teams and I'm hoping for big things to happen for both teams.
Bradley would be a much better player if he could finish. He actually gets a lot of opportunities. World Cup against Portugal and even in this game at 2:07. These are just that pop into mind right. He's got stamina for days, good long balls and if that finishing were cleaner 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I'm all over Robles great saves and really allowed 1 goal that first one was deflected and no chance.I can see Rbles taking in the reins when Howard's retires from international play which will probably be after 2018 I'd the US qualify
+Edison Verdugo I don't think he's that old and that other goal was deflected and no keeper would have got that.I can see why eople are a bit annoyed with him
What the hell is wrong with Iceland? Because of them Netherlands fail to quallify at Euro. and the last 4 games played by Iceland were lost by them....
how does he even get that shot off at 4:24? Theres like five defenders back there with only two attackers and they just let that one guy stride through like he had on ice skates.. thats piss poor defense no wonder klinns hates his players playing in the MLS
i tell you something about the germans. saxons are a geman tribe. where do the german tribes come from and how did they mix? now try the following: add an "i" and you get "i saxon" do you see what i did there? isaacs son sick to think that the german tribes in fact are also jewish heritage is it? ;-P ah and congrats to the us for the win
not really a big fan of the us anymore, in 2013 they were very good then came the disappointing world cup and abysmal 2015 gold cup performances, and then they lost a bunch of friendlies and screwed up chances to qualify for the olympics. and now they celebrate because they struggled to beat iceland and beat canada.
@@stormgamezzhd1343 Well they're getting a bit better but I stopped watching the games after they failed to qualify for the 2018 world cup. Now I just watch highlights.
Yea even in the World Cup they play B teams. Every single match is against a B team. No actually the C team. If you are going to say bs make it sound good
What does the size of a country have to do with the skill their football/soccer team? That's right, nothing. Iceland also did really good at the Euro 2016 qualifications.
Typical USMNT haters. Since we were victorious, they have to target our performance in the game. We understand that at times we lacked defensive wise, but we still came out on top at the end of the day. A win is a win, as simple as that. On the other hand, there is no correlation between the small population of Iceland and nations' soccer skills. A nation could have a population of 500, and still be one of the best in soccer.
***** Still was Iceland. Enough of this B team A team shit. These players are obviously good enough to play in the Euros in 2016 or else they wouldn't of been called up in the first place.
Argentina looked better than Chile, but they still lost the Copa America. In order to win tournaments you gotta succeed where it matters, and that's what the U.S. did in this game. The U.S. had the better score.
Was there to watch the game in person and it was great! Lovely to see the boys play as usual and to grab a nice win with plenty of goals. Let's go USA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

I watched most of the game and I agreed with you. Mr. Nguyen did well as a midfielder / and I'm glad to see an Asian face in USMNT.
+T Tran agreed he is very underrated needs more minutes
I still can't believe that in the entire country these r the best you find!!!!!
Terrence Floyd do some research bro..... you have to make a lot of money to play soccer in the USA at a high level .. it's simply not affordable. ..
Zardes needs to work on those headers.
He missed a sitter against Trinidad too...
this is a few years too late but he needs to work on everything

Robles needs to work on his positioning... That 2nd goal, great shot for where he was but why is he so close to his near post!?
The goalie is ......Great 😁
Robles is the man
He is good! The first goal was deflected so he couldn't have saved it. The second was curved really well
He's fast, but US defense is shit
When I grow up I wanna help USA soccer team. I live in Michigan HOW DO I GET NOTICED
make a highlight tape. good luck from england
#7 on Iceland was a beast.
A rematch from the game in Mighty Ducks II! :)

that game was at the stub hub center cause I saw the LA galaxy logo

Haaaa England lost to the same team lmfao
No. This Iceland team is like a C team... many of the players who were on the pitch in this match weren't even part of the Euro 2016 squad...
So what's the A and B team then?
Team with better players.

So no answer?

I think the defense needs to work more on pressuring the players because they give them to much space to take shots and make plays.
Release the new logo so I can buy a jersey

I just saw the new logo. Not a fan. Not sure why they don't use the Great Seal. Or even the Crest from the Centennial Jersey from 2013. Now that'd be awesome imo

why no more Clint Dempsey
Glad they won but our defense still needs work.
+dougprrz tru
Birnbaum's "assist" was actually goal bound. Great set piece nonetheless
Wasn't goal bound but still good goal
Holy Child It was goal bound and still also a great goal
+HaylonHarroo87 wasn't goal bound but still a good goal
Edison Verdugo was definitely goal bound and it was an okay goal
yeah you Mad that a Mexican scored
So this Iceland team beat England in the Euros. Wow.
Not the best win. But a win is a win.
I'm all over Robles great saves and really allowed 1 goal that first one was deflected and no chance.I can see Rbles taking in the reins when Howard's retires from international play which will probably be after 2018 I'd the US qualify

he was poor defensively
and they say the women's team gets smaller crowds.
All attack, no defense
Iceland's population is 1/100th of the US, and they would've filled that stadium. How embarrassing.
the girl that starts screaming non stop tho lol
What the hell is wrong with Iceland? Because of them Netherlands fail to quallify at Euro. and the last 4 games played by Iceland were lost by them....

sick to think that the german tribes in fact are also jewish heritage is it?
;-P
ah and congrats to the us for the win
Hopefully the US hasn't let this goalie played since this game his positioning is awful especially at 3:20
USA population - 320,000,000
Iceland population - 329,000
Just sayin'
+Joshua Pitka ok and
Joshua Pitka yeah but like 2,000 Americans play soccer
Nothing to do with football
the us women's team are better
The reason was that these years were Iceland prime and they been working hard work from where they are now.
