By the way they played I'd have thought it's full of former Husker coaches, namely Scott Frost's staff. Turnovers, running the same plays that don't work, playing from behind, bad special teams play, poor tackling, no penetration on defense, poor blocking on offense, etc.
As a European it’s always nice to see the US get beaten at their at their own game because of the much needed attention it generates for American Football in Europe. American Football needs more attention internationally. Great video as always 👍🏻
This a tricky situation. If the US sends an elite high school like IMG and they mop up the competition did that help grow the sport internationally? I hate losing and find it frankly embarrassing but for the longer term health and support for the game internationally it might be best if the US sent substandard players just so it feels like the other countries have a chance to compete.
@@fabiantaveras8458I feel the same but honestly that’s true, if this grows internationally it’ll be good for the sport. Would be kind of weird if we began to draft international players a ton like the nba though, so to a certain extent I don’t.
I am of two minds on this matter. 1. It is good that the foreigners are finally getting into football and playing it with dedication and grit. I was really impressed with the Austrians in their game against Canada. If the foreigners win some games, that means they will begin to fund and support it more. And it will lead to better players and games. 2. I am an American, and Americans shall not, will not tolerate this a bunch of boys losing at our own game to anyone, especially the goddamn Canadians being 3x back champions.
Nah, don't sleep on Austria, they're one of the better footballing countries in Europe besides Germany and have one of the better youth football academies in Europe
Guten Tag, I'm glad IFAF is getting recognition here in my country. This is probably the best moment of my life as an American Football fan in the USA, the rest of the world can finally compete against the United States. Vielen Dank, Österreich. FOOTBALL WIRD INTERNATIONAL! 🇦🇹❤
This will be a net positive for Football. Inerst will grow internationally and the USA had better come back looking for revenge next time with a better team and better staff.
Setting aside the put-on of jingoistic blubbering, this corroborates what was apparent in the game against Japan. The U.S. side is a hastily-assembled squad of D-III and NAIA underclassmen that have spent almost no time playing together, or working with their coaches. In contrast, the teams representing the likes of Japan and Austria likely are composed of most of a country’s best players in that age group, have actually provided for a greater period of time for team preparation, and benefit from reasonably well-established organizations of American football within each country. It shouldn’t be a surprise that those teams are competitive with U.S. teams cobbled together from small-college players. We’re certainly long past the time when just about any group of American college players could expect to stroll onto the field and whip a team from anywhere else in the world. I’m not particularly bothered that any other nation manages to beat a squad representing the U.S. - it’s probably good for the growth of the sport’s global appeal - but respect for the game should demand that USA Football (the U.S.’s member of the International Federation of American Football (IFAF), and the internationally-recognized governing body for American football in the U.S.) find some way to provide U.S. national teams more time to train together, and work with their coaches. By the way, Canada won the championship of this IFAF U-20 tournament, beating Japan 20-9.
Ok. So I looked it up. The team was only together from June 14-19 before the tournament. So yea, they hand 5 days and a handful of practices likely to get ready. That really isn’t enough to do any coaching or implement anything besides the most basic of plays. And means the guys hadn’t really even played together before. So imagine being a QB throwing to guys you have barely seen run a few routes, don’t know their strengths and weaknesses, etc. Also, aside from being together for 5 days, it looks like players need to pay to play basically. There is talk of membership and participation fees as well as logistical costs. They also needed to know about this and submit an application with video and stuff to be looked at for the team. So I’m not really knocking any of the guys for this, really. It looked like a group of guys from D3 and NAIA who had never played together, weren’t coached as a team, and who were just looking to get not injured….and that’s because that’s exactly what it was. Hopefully the guys didn’t have to pay their own airfare! But in general, pretty disappointing at the lack of effort and money behind this from the US. It doesn’t bode well for the tournament as a whole since the US is obviously the driver behind these tournaments and if our own team is barely even that, it doesn’t bode well for the effort and money put into the tourney as well. If we are looking to help spread the sport internationally, we gotta at least have a team that is actually a team. It doesn’t need to be the best players or anything, just with enough time together and with coaches to attempt some exciting play. I say keep beating the crap out of us until we do Japan and Austria, and congrats.
No excuses for getting embarrassed at your own sport. The American flag and uniforms still mean something. America should never ever under any circumstances get embarrassed at football, basketball or baseball. And this coming from a non American.
@@jediknight5600 american exceptionalism has long been dead, my friend. obviously we have the best players, but many athletes feel that there is no pride in playing just for your country. this is just the world baseball classic argument all over again.

@The_Movie_Ribbit The American flag, anthem, and uniforms carry weight. Those on the field are representing the country in an international tournament. In football, no less. You don't need pros to whoop everyone's ass. Im sure you can put together a team of college players who will never make the NFL and win easily. It just needs to be taken seriously, because you know everyone will have a target on your back because of who you are. Like I said, no excuses. You put on an American uniform in an international tournament, then you better represent properly. Or don't even enter. That goes for the coaching staff too by the way. Unacceptable.
@@jediknight5600 bruh ur taking it too seriously i dont know a single american who gives a fuck about it or even knows about it thats my point aint needa argue it have a good day
Damn, I'm just angry about how that team went out twice. No effort to execute on D and in the trenches. Coaches allowed them to betray the values of the game itself, including confusing excitement for actual effort. This tape can crush a kids chances to play at the next level

I have a feeling next year there are going to be some legit players interested in going and it will be a much different outlook. Oh the the freshman that is a backup for a Power 5 team? Yeah he wants in. Stacked offensive line etc etc. I think overall internationally this was the best thing to happen to American Football. I knew about this tournament years ago, and players would reject it unless they had no offers (generally speaking.) and wanted to get noticed. Now it is going to be a totally different story. This will be the last time we send a subpar roster I think.
AUS quarterback had enough time in the pocket to read the book War and Peace, write a term paper, and give a speech at the United Nations before throwing passes.
and i dont want to make it worse, but austria was missing their two starting ilbs AND were handicapped by a complete and utter inability to punt, which lost them their semifinal singlehandedly

Cover some of the upcoming women’s tackle football content! This summer the WFA International Team United will go to Mexico and Amsterdam to compete! And the WFA’s national championship is coming up less than a month away!
Are these guys all D-3 and NAIA players? I’ll likely have to look it up, but that was pretty terrible. Actually the coaching might have been worse. Though, to be fair, maybe these guys only practiced a few times together? I know we don’t want to blow everyone out and make it no fun, but something like the WBC is a great product on the field.

There are some decent American football teams in Europe. The German League is quite entertaining and last I looked, there was a Europeanwide football league too. Yes, these teams usually have a number of American players at key positions but the home grown talent is really good. I live in Japan and knew there were a few colleges that play the sport but I never saw it on TV. There was a football scandal in the national news where a football player intentionally late-hit a quarterback, sending him to the hospital. Apparently his coach instructed him to do so. The football program at that Japanese college was discontinued as a result. But apparently American football is still alive in Japan and producing some good players.
Wait... we lost to Austria? That's insane. But on the other hand, I love the fact that talent is showing up around the world in our version of Football.
Bro this is not USAs best not even close😂 we sent some random kids that applied online none of these kids playing college ball they all scrubs. We could send 8th graders and win the whole thing.
@@OSU2010 I totally agree with you there. Even still though, people are acting shocked that even our scrubs would lose. Outside of Canada, Japan is probably the second biggest fans of American football.
I think all the negative press should give an incentive for the USA team to start taking the team more seriously. They could at minimum send either a prep school like IMG or a good juco like east Mississippi or Hutchinson.
We’re becoming Vought America all glitz and glamour and running our mouths about what washed up player deserves the most money while setting the next generation of players up for failure.
Why send our actually good athletes to compete in a meaningless tournament to possibly get hurt when they could be spending time getting better in college to make more money in the NFL
There are a bunch of high school teams that would love the opportunity to represent America in this tournament, before they go off to college. Just need someone to pay for it. There are enough fans in Texas alone to raise money to send one of our powerhouse teams to this tournament. Just need the leaders to get their heads out of their ass.
These dudes are nobodies. It’s not like we are sending our D1 stars or NFL players. We would win 200 - 0 if that happened. Remember what happened last time we sent our best in basketball?
@@pentapox9665 D1 stars then. It would be a wrap. LSU could role in there and wax any team with just their freshman and sophomores. If you disagree, you don’t know football.
@@j.brendenstookey3437 Once again, it is a u20 event, which means that pretty much only freshmen would be eligible. Now tell me, why would a top recruit want to play in this game? It is a minor event, they don't get paid, and if they get injured it might wreck their chances of going pro. It's not like it's the Olympics. There is no prestige here/
Well Mike Kelly is a division 3 college coach and he ain't that good here at home any way last year Blufton U went 2 wins and 8 losses last year. Also the roster doesn't have but 2 good mid tier high school to college recruits 1 is a 3 star the other a 4 star and that's about it when it comes to talent.
There are a bunch of high school teams in TX that would love the opportunity to represent the US. Send the entire team and their coaches. Ask fans in TX to donate to fund it. High schools in Texas that would destroy everybody in this tournament easily: Desoto Duncanville South Oak Cliff Austin Westlake Galena Park Northshore Lufkin Longview The Woodlands There are schools in CA, GA, LA & FL that would do the same. I’m only talking about public schools in Texas.
I know it's obviously not your best squad, but the American flag and uniforms in an international tournament still means something. Especially when it's a sport like football. America should never ever get embarrassed in football, basketball or baseball. Lose, maybe. Embarrassed? Never. No excuses. And this coming from a non American.
I would say the reason USA keeps losing. Is because none of the players are nfl level players. Not even college stars. Its literally high school level players 😂
But this is the Under 20 year old people. U20. So they are good but not that good because many major colleges/ universities will not let their players go play somewhere else and risk injuries.
This is a bunch of nonsense. 27 yrs ago I played division 3 football. I also coaches for 15 yrs at the division 3 ranks. I don't wanna hear that we sent d3 players out there and they weren't good enough. There is a massive wealth of talent in the d2 , d3, and NAIA level of football. The play calling was awful in this tournament. These players were poorly prepared coming into this.
Like I said before, these guys are just a sacrifice. They’re the team that came before the dream team and for those who are complaining, I bet 99.9% can’t name 1 member off that ‘88 team nor would you care to. Though I’d also bet 99.9% of you can remember exactly what happened in ’92 born or unborn. Whether this was a conscience decision or not, if great players are inspired by this then the outcome will be the same. But if you honestly think about it, doesn’t it make way more sense to let these other countries get their hopes up so that their kids will want to play and the adults will want to watch… It sucks but sometimes you have to sacrifice for the greater good. That’s business. Now hopefully it’ll turn out to be good business. And just like in ‘88, no one will remember this team. But everyone will remember the next one though. Stay positive. God Bless 🇺🇸
@@extragoogleaccount6061in fairness baseball is a lot more of an even playing field these days as it’s become by far the most popular international sport of the major American sports. Football on the other hand is one that by design we are supposed to dominate since it’s really existed almost entirely here until very recently. Why they chose to send out this joke roster of like community college players to the international stage is beyond me.
I know this isnt NFL but i would love to see the game go international. in the OFF season there are some international games where team USA would have Patrick Mahomes, Justin Jefferson and Mark Andrews. Bear in mind no other team would win. but the NFL has hit its peak Domestically it needs to go international and make the global.
It's almost like the US doesn't expect other countries to have intelligent, strong, capable men. We got are asses handed to us. Congrats Austria, played a great game. Got close at the end there.
According to other comments... The team was only together for about 5 days before the competition... the players were selected from those who were willing to pay to play... with those two things, how could you do well? Btw, Canadian Football League has taught NFL a thing or two about the sport...
What needs to happen is that the entire team USA football coaching staff needs to be fired and replaced with competent coaches.
By the way they played I'd have thought it's full of former Husker coaches, namely Scott Frost's staff. Turnovers, running the same plays that don't work, playing from behind, bad special teams play, poor tackling, no penetration on defense, poor blocking on offense, etc.

It doesn’t need to be the best players or anything, just with enough time together and with coaches to attempt some exciting play.
I say keep beating the crap out of us until we do Japan and Austria, and congrats.
There are some decent American football teams in Europe. The German League is quite entertaining and last I looked, there was a Europeanwide football league too. Yes, these teams usually have a number of American players at key positions but the home grown talent is really good. I live in Japan and knew there were a few colleges that play the sport but I never saw it on TV. There was a football scandal in the national news where a football player intentionally late-hit a quarterback, sending him to the hospital. Apparently his coach instructed him to do so. The football program at that Japanese college was discontinued as a result. But apparently American football is still alive in Japan and producing some good players.
Any decent college football team would stomp any of these teams.
It’s U20 bro and we have 8th graders that would destroy them 100 to zip if we got all the best 8th graders
@@OSU2010 then get those 8th graders on the field, because just losing and then boasting how you are unbeatable sounds very much like bad coping.
Good on Japan. Hopefully we get an opportunity at a rematch in the future.
Who are these players and coaches?
Wait... we lost to Austria? That's insane. But on the other hand, I love the fact that talent is showing up around the world in our version of Football.
Everyone of those kids need to be barred from a scholarship (FBS, FCS, D2, NAIA, JUCO) and if they already have one it needs to be revoked!!!
None of them being looked at not good enough
@@OSU2010 Bro, most of these kids are on scholarship at all the levels I just mentioned and the younger ones have offers already...
Including FBS P5
Any of these guys actually going to play in college?
That shoulda been incomplete.
Coaching is the problem... they don't seem to know anything about who the players are and game flow.
time to get Tom Brady out of retirement
To be fair Japan has been playing American football for a while, and it’s pretty big there. Austria on the other hand I can’t say the same for
Bro this is not USAs best not even close😂 we sent some random kids that applied online none of these kids playing college ball they all scrubs. We could send 8th graders and win the whole thing.
@@OSU2010 I totally agree with you there. Even still though, people are acting shocked that even our scrubs would lose. Outside of Canada, Japan is probably the second biggest fans of American football.
@@OSU2010 well, then do send a team that would win, it's honestly embarrasing otherwise.
@@patricknealon6472even your NFL players ain't shit
I think all the negative press should give an incentive for the USA team to start taking the team more seriously. They could at minimum send either a prep school like IMG or a good juco like east Mississippi or Hutchinson.
$$$$ - who is on the USA team ????
We’re becoming Vought America all glitz and glamour and running our mouths about what washed up player deserves the most money while setting the next generation of players up for failure.
3:10 he had enough time to read our defense, translate it into German, and send his analysis to Germany
I’m not surprised at all. These countries must be pretty competent when it comes to the sport if flag football is going to be an Olympic sport.
Why send our actually good athletes to compete in a meaningless tournament to possibly get hurt when they could be spending time getting better in college to make more money in the NFL
There are a bunch of high school teams that would love the opportunity to represent America in this tournament, before they go off to college. Just need someone to pay for it. There are enough fans in Texas alone to raise money to send one of our powerhouse teams to this tournament. Just need the leaders to get their heads out of their ass.
@@t.k.1319 notice how I said our GOOD athletes, if other schools want to play in it then they could’ve, plus it would just be a waste of time
These dudes are nobodies. It’s not like we are sending our D1 stars or NFL players. We would win 200 - 0 if that happened. Remember what happened last time we sent our best in basketball?
Bro, it is an under 20 competition. You want to send our NFL players to compete against international high schoolers? Get a grip.
@@pentapox9665 D1 stars then. It would be a wrap. LSU could role in there and wax any team with just their freshman and sophomores. If you disagree, you don’t know football.
@@j.brendenstookey3437 Once again, it is a u20 event, which means that pretty much only freshmen would be eligible. Now tell me, why would a top recruit want to play in this game? It is a minor event, they don't get paid, and if they get injured it might wreck their chances of going pro. It's not like it's the Olympics. There is no prestige here/
Based on that film most of those players wouldn’t make the JV team for most high schools.
This reminds me of my college years of😑🤷🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
Work to do.
Well Mike Kelly is a division 3 college coach and he ain't that good here at home any way last year Blufton U went 2 wins and 8 losses last year. Also the roster doesn't have but 2 good mid tier high school to college recruits
1 is a 3 star the other a 4 star and that's about it when it comes to talent.
dude we stink at our own game..bummer
As an Austrian: I have never seen a world championship with an almost empty stadion. 🙂
Now if we had real football players like nfl players we wouldve beaten those teams like 70-13 each lmao
There are a bunch of high school teams in TX that would love the opportunity to represent the US. Send the entire team and their coaches. Ask fans in TX to donate to fund it.
High schools in Texas that would destroy everybody in this tournament easily:
Desoto
Duncanville
South Oak Cliff
Austin Westlake
Galena Park Northshore
Lufkin
Longview
The Woodlands
There are schools in CA, GA, LA & FL that would do the same. I’m only talking about public schools in Texas.
Happy Canada Day. U20 World Champions 🇨🇦
I know it's obviously not your best squad, but the American flag and uniforms in an international tournament still means something. Especially when it's a sport like football. America should never ever get embarrassed in football, basketball or baseball. Lose, maybe. Embarrassed? Never. No excuses. And this coming from a non American.
I would say the reason USA keeps losing. Is because none of the players are nfl level players. Not even college stars. Its literally high school level players 😂
But this is the Under 20 year old people. U20. So they are good but not that good because many major colleges/ universities will not let their players go play somewhere else and risk injuries.
This is a bunch of nonsense. 27 yrs ago I played division 3 football. I also coaches for 15 yrs at the division 3 ranks. I don't wanna hear that we sent d3 players out there and they weren't good enough. There is a massive wealth of talent in the d2 , d3, and NAIA level of football. The play calling was awful in this tournament. These players were poorly prepared coming into this.
ah yes, my favorite score in football -- 25
Like I said before, these guys are just a sacrifice. They’re the team that came before the dream team and for those who are complaining, I bet 99.9% can’t name 1 member off that ‘88 team nor would you care to. Though I’d also bet 99.9% of you can remember exactly what happened in ’92 born or unborn. Whether this was a conscience decision or not, if great players are inspired by this then the outcome will be the same. But if you honestly think about it, doesn’t it make way more sense to let these other countries get their hopes up so that their kids will want to play and the adults will want to watch… It sucks but sometimes you have to sacrifice for the greater good. That’s business. Now hopefully it’ll turn out to be good business. And just like in ‘88, no one will remember this team. But everyone will remember the next one though. Stay positive. God Bless 🇺🇸
Let Japan play the ravens
Just send a team full of NFL practice squad players. Problem solved
This is disgraceful! How dare we get beat at our own sport by other countries.
Wait, we lost an "American Football" game against Japan???
Wait til you hear about baseball….
@@extragoogleaccount6061in fairness baseball is a lot more of an even playing field these days as it’s become by far the most popular international sport of the major American sports.
Football on the other hand is one that by design we are supposed to dominate since it’s really existed almost entirely here until very recently. Why they chose to send out this joke roster of like community college players to the international stage is beyond me.
I know this isnt NFL but i would love to see the game go international. in the OFF season there are some international games where team USA would have Patrick Mahomes, Justin Jefferson and Mark Andrews. Bear in mind no other team would win.
but the NFL has hit its peak Domestically it needs to go international and make the global.
Never happening though, the teams would never allow their star players to go play international and risk unjuries.
Why are we not putting our best players to represent we know who’s our best u20 players and they would’ve obliterated everybody
It's almost like the US doesn't expect other countries to have intelligent, strong, capable men. We got are asses handed to us. Congrats Austria, played a great game. Got close at the end there.
いまだにアメリカンフットボールのルールが分からないんだが。調べる気もないけど。
I looked up the team and the dline has a Notre Dame commit. And coach is from the Canadian football league. I just expected so kind of effort…
According to other comments... The team was only together for about 5 days before the competition... the players were selected from those who were willing to pay to play... with those two things, how could you do well?
Btw, Canadian Football League has taught NFL a thing or two about the sport...
Where are the fans?
Who tf is coaching USA 😂 bro put me at HC OC DC I’d coach them myself
Ah yes. The beautiful language known as “Austrian”
This was absolutely notoriously disgusting play.
Whether we (USA) win or lose, I just think it's cool that American football is gaining popularity around the world.
