Team USA is the only team without a clear #1 goalkeeper entering this World Cup. Because neither current 2 goalies is good. Coach Poch has to rotate them.
No, I am not talking the 3rd goal allowed. The error obviously came from inexperience. A good goalkeeper, a modern goalkeeper will definitely get involved in fighting the first 2 goals we allowed (from crossing). Our goalkeepers have no coverage, i.e. no range. They’re just average traditional shot-stoppers.
When an underdog wants to beat a favorite, a good goalie is a must. We’re just one good goalie away from being a very good team.
