  • Laselecta_90๐Ÿ‘ค125 hours ago

    El Salvador football quality is horrific and itโ€™s a shame whatโ€™s it has become. Congratulations to Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

  • Kurakurguhoiuala115 hours ago

    What a weird game.

  • WislaHD75 hours ago

    Days like today you really understand why USA and Mexico send B teams to this tournament

  • A159746X95 hours ago

    GG Canada.

    Equipo pitera de maletas y troncos. El Salvador might as well not even play the WCQ. Couldn’t even beat Puerto Rico FFS.

    • onthelongrun55 hours ago

      they got lucky Suriname vs Puerto Rico had a result, because they would’ve missed out on GD

  • tfcred45 hours ago

    Ok Salvador, your money is waiting for you in the lockerroom.

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ75 hours ago

    That was weird, boring, and fun for very short bursts.

  • athabascadepends165 hours ago

    Well, that was a disgrace to the sport of football. But atleast Canada won and didnt stoop to the level of the Salvadorans

  • tfcred195 hours ago

    It’s crazy how many times the Salvador players attack the player instead of the ball on those aerial balls and never got a card for it.

  • onthelongrun65 hours ago

    1 minute of extra time? Sounded like the Ref wanted this one over as well.

  • Master-Defenestrator55 hours ago

    If nothing else, you gotta give El-Salvador credit for commitment to the bit.

    • Laselecta_90๐Ÿ‘ค15 hours ago

      I agree

  • FullPrice4LatePizza105 hours ago

    Referees wisely add no extra time.

  • primetimey123๐Ÿ‘ค55 hours ago

    Trying to take out the CB legs again, for the 30th time, and then is “injured” lmfao these pussies.

  • jpcgy๐Ÿ‘ค75 hours ago

    He goes to up end the Canadian on purpose and he goes down injured. The entire El Salvador team is bitch made

  • pegcityjammin55 hours ago

    Are there like 12 people in the stands for this?

    • athabascadepends25 hours ago

      They all left after Canada scored

  • primetimey123๐Ÿ‘ค185 hours ago

    Carried off for a cramp, LMFAO

    • A_1337_Canadian75 hours ago

      Yeah it’s hard going from watching NHL playoffs to this lol

  • elevenstewart๐Ÿ‘ค175 hours ago

    If only their physio was there….

  • fightin_blue_hens105 hours ago

    Central American countries not play dirty challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

    • BigJobRob91335 hours ago

      Hey the Panama Jamaica game was pretty clean

      • athabascadepends45 hours ago

        Panama is actually a talented team with a good coach

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ25 hours ago

    What round would Canada/USA be hypothetically?

    • athabascadepends105 hours ago

      July 2nd in St Louis, assuming USA gets past Costa Rica and Canada beats Guatemala

    • Iustis55 hours ago

      Semis

  • A159746X25 hours ago

    I don’t mind Canada start doing hockey tackles/hits for the entire Salvadoran team.

    They need to be humbled ASAP.

    • Laselecta_90๐Ÿ‘ค25 hours ago

      They got humbled by losing the way they did in their own sport.

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ05 hours ago

    Wish Honduras/Curacao was on TV

    • AC_Slater77๐Ÿ‘ค15 hours ago

      FS2

    • BigJobRob91325 hours ago

      It is. Itโ€™s on FS2

      • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ25 hours ago

        Yeah I don’t have that one. Thanks tho

  • incarnatethegreat45 hours ago

    Curacao were surprisingly good!

    Just not good enough.

  • ForgingIron45 hours ago

    El Salvador still going for broke(n bones)

  • jpcgy๐Ÿ‘ค86 hours ago

    Iโ€™d love to go to bed but I wouldnโ€™t want to miss any of the El Salvador hissy fits

    • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ45 hours ago

      Or the final red card…

      • jpcgy๐Ÿ‘ค55 hours ago

        I have a feeling theyโ€™ll be related

  • BigJobRob91326 hours ago

    The jerseys those fans are wearing are pretty sick. Too bad itโ€™s for a team like El Salvador

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ26 hours ago

    El Salvador should pull their keeper at 80’. However they seem to just be resigned to losing scoreless.

    • onthelongrun35 hours ago

      They would’ve needed a 5 goal win to advance

      • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ15 hours ago

        Oh I didn’t know that. I missed the goal differential apparently.

        • onthelongrun25 hours ago

          it helped Canada threw down a 6-0 on the opening match against Honduras

  • nicehouseenjoyer96 hours ago

    Just a reminder for no reason that El Salvador was notorious for throwing Gold Cup games for gamblers for most of the competition’s history.

  • philphan2536 hours ago

  • mrwatkins8316 hours ago

    Bored. Boring. Lame.

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ96 hours ago

    Canadian keeper is bored AF smoking a J right now

  • athabascadepends16 hours ago

    Are the Salvadorean fans doing the P-ta chant to their own keeper?

    • Kurakurguhoiuala86 hours ago

      It’s the Canadians behind the goal saying ‘Oooohhh Canada!“.

      • athabascadepends36 hours ago

        Just heard it there yeah you’re right. Much better lol

    • According-Award8440๐Ÿ‘ค36 hours ago

      no, they are leaving the stadium, it’s half empty now.

    • BigJobRob91316 hours ago

      At this point I would not put it past them

    • [deleted]๐Ÿ‘ค56 hours ago

      • athabascadepends26 hours ago

        Ahh ok maybe I misheard

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ16 hours ago

    Finally a goal kick to shake things up…

  • bobo_fett26 hours ago

    Do we have any other ideas besides going wide to Shaff

    • Master-Defenestrator56 hours ago

      I think it’s just really tempting bc he always in acres of space.

  • [deleted]๐Ÿ‘ค56 hours ago

    • Philly514๐Ÿ‘ค26 hours ago

      They are down 2 men, not much else to do but play for pride.

    • BigJobRob91356 hours ago

      I mean when you only have 9 players on the field, parking the bus is kind of the best you can do

  • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ36 hours ago

    This is boring because of the discrepancy in players. Whole game has been played towards the El Salvadoran goal.

    • bestyrs66 hours ago

      And theyโ€™re sitting with a 5-3 just hoping to not give up a goal. Terrible to watch.

    • puns_are_how_eyeroll๐Ÿ‘ค136 hours ago

      Maybe they shouldn’t take 2 reds?

  • jpcgy๐Ÿ‘ค86 hours ago

    Thatโ€™s the first good piece of football from El Salvador and it came from their goalie 67 minutes in lmao

  • Kurakurguhoiuala46 hours ago

    Niko, you sexy little bastard.

  • ForgingIron166 hours ago

    Credit where it’s due, the Salvadoran keeper is not bad

    • Laselecta_90๐Ÿ‘ค25 hours ago

      He is good many Salvadoran keepers are but lack quality on rest of team

    • incarnatethegreat46 hours ago

      Agreed.

    • StoopSign๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ126 hours ago

      That PK block before the red card was really good.

    • AlexanderShady20๐Ÿ‘ค56 hours ago

      Heโ€™s really putting it all into this game

    • RoostasTowel๐Ÿ‘ค36 hours ago

      I need to see a replay of that

  • CosmicCooled๐Ÿ‘ค66 hours ago

    Mightโ€™ve already been mentioned, but Iโ€™m glad that didnโ€™t hit any of the players, that could have been bad.

    • fightin_blue_hens-16 hours ago

      It can’t really. It’s on the sideline between the fans and the touchline

      • Otherwise-Owl-654796 hours ago

        wym it fell directly onto the pitch, lol. a player literally carried it off of the field

      • CosmicCooled๐Ÿ‘ค46 hours ago

        Oh. It looked like it fell onto the field because one of the players seemed to pick it up and move it off the field.

        • philphan2546 hours ago

          That piece was definitely on the field

  • eescobar86366 hours ago

    Yo was that the sky cam

  • Cmoloughlin246 hours ago

    This gold cup is football heritage

  • fightin_blue_hens36 hours ago

    Clubs are going to have to tell Mexico’s FA that they will not allow players to play in concacaf games until concacaf gets a hold on the blatant dirty fouls that these smaller Nations resort to cuz they know they won’t be punished in most games

  • Master-Defenestrator96 hours ago

    Up 2-0 and 2 men, and shafflberg is sprinting the length of the field. That guy has the biggest heart.

  • Iam_nighthawk56 hours ago

    THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME INJECT THIS INTO MY VEINS

  • DarthHeff๐Ÿ‘ค126 hours ago

    This game is concacaf personified on steroids man

  • Otherwise-Owl-654796 hours ago

    how many points is murking the aerial cam?

  • nicehouseenjoyer76 hours ago

    Was that the sky cam or a seat thrown on the field?

  • BigJobRob913146 hours ago

    My god this match has everything

  • According-Award8440๐Ÿ‘ค86 hours ago

    the last time we lost this many players during one match was when they banned the entire team for match fixing in 2013,

    I hope it didn’t happen again -.- Cause this time they’re going to CECOT.

  • cheesypeenis96 hours ago

    Concacaf, where shit falls from the roof

  • AppleMFingJuice๐Ÿ‘ค76 hours ago

    • Ryuzakku36 hours ago

      Well isn’t it if you go down to 6 men you forfeit?

  • Master-Defenestrator176 hours ago

    CONCACAF is the Jerry Springer show of international sport.

  • FullPrice4LatePizza-66 hours ago

    You’re up two goals and two men. Why are you getting cards for upending the keeper? Be smart.

    • Master-Defenestrator76 hours ago

      Shouldnt have been given, pure game management from the ref.

    • AC_Slater77๐Ÿ‘ค216 hours ago

      The Keeper jumped over his back.

      • FullPrice4LatePizza36 hours ago

        Ah. I guess I should watch the replay instead of typing on my phone.

  • sirdeionsandals96 hours ago

    Fine the El Salvador FA this is disgusting

  • According-Award8440๐Ÿ‘ค146 hours ago

    as an el salvador fan, I can say that this team sucks, and I bet that the league (that i don’t watch) does not have VAR, so they are dumb enough to think this shit will slide. Their entire team is basically from the local league. Maybe we can send 1 or 2 to the CPL, cause MLS definitely wont sign salvadoreans for some reason.

    • A159746X46 hours ago

      I watch their league games sometimes (on Fanatiz if you’re interested), and I can confirm that the league does not have VAR at all.

      Their most recent final was so bad, it’s hilarious. The infamous referee Ivan Barton had a shitshow of a game where he was disputing with the linesman over a goal that was eventually ruled offside.

    • AppleMFingJuice๐Ÿ‘ค16 hours ago

      Probably because the way they play is a liability?

    • [deleted]๐Ÿ‘ค16 hours ago

    • ZEKE307๐Ÿ‘ค36 hours ago

      gotta put trust into the youth team that qualified to the world cup. Would those guys even wanna play for such a shit FA

  • deeb17116 hours ago

    Bayern is never going to let Phonzie play against these guys

    • TSteelerMAN๐Ÿ‘ค15 hours ago

      I’m pretty sure Puli said he’s never playing in some Concacaf dogshit like this again. Can you blame them?

    • fightin_blue_hens16 hours ago

      The only way anything will change is if clubs start telling Mexico they won’t let them play in concacaf games because of this.

    • athabascadepends96 hours ago

      At this point I dont think anybody should play them. If there was any justice in the world, El Salvador would have their FA sanctioned for this disgrace

    • InfiniteTime106 hours ago

      They are never letting bro play anything but club games

  • philphan2596 hours ago

    Why did the keeper jump with a flying knee

  • incarnatethegreat136 hours ago

    What in the WORLD is wrong with this ref?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

    • jloome๐Ÿ‘ค36 hours ago

      It’s Joe Dickerson. He’s fucking atrocious. Any local Sunday league ref would be more accurate.

    • BigJobRob91326 hours ago

      Heโ€™s an MLS ref

    • InfiniteTime136 hours ago

      Everything

      • incarnatethegreat16 hours ago

        He certainly ticks all the boxes.

  • Ryuzakku186 hours ago

    Promise with the yellow for… standing his ground?

    • Shellshock1122166 hours ago

      game is even in Texas smh

  • BayAreaBro๐Ÿ‘ค36 hours ago

    El Salvador didn’t learn shit lol

  • A159746X166 hours ago

    I hope Canada scores 8.

    Baffles my mind that Salvadoran fans are willing to pay premium prices for this dogshit team. For reference, the El Salvador vs. Honduras game was 3-4x the price that I paid for in 2023. Same stadium and same section.

    Haha. Keeper jumps into Promise and we get the yellow.

  • RoostasTowel๐Ÿ‘ค36 hours ago

    get a shot back on them

    Not a yellow. Attacker was occupying the space the goalie jumped into

    โ€œHow many cards will El Salvador get?โ€

    โ€œYes.โ€

  • Relative-Sherbet-532126 hours ago

    embarrassing display from el salvadorย 

    • fightin_blue_hens66 hours ago

      And embarrassing by the ref to fall for it

  • ForgingIron76 hours ago

    And now back to handing out more cards than a poker dealer

  • fightin_blue_hens36 hours ago

    Is there a theoretical limit to how many red cards a team can get before they have to forfeit

    • elevenstewart๐Ÿ‘ค46 hours ago

      I just looked that up.

      Theoretically 11. But you forfeit at less than 7 players. So usually at 5 it’s a forfeit

    • Relative-Sherbet-53236 hours ago

      match gets abandoned after a team has fewer than 7 players on the field, so 5 reds for a team would end a gameย 

    • stonkerz36 hours ago

      need min, 7 players on the pitch, so 5 reds would be a forfeit.

    • Shellshock112236 hours ago

      you have to field 7 players

    • AC_Slater77๐Ÿ‘ค56 hours ago

      5

  • ZEKE307๐Ÿ‘ค66 hours ago

    This is so deserved pls just destroy this team

  • deeb1776 hours ago

    If their football team is like this imagine what that super prison must be like

  • Shellshock112276 hours ago

    2-0 is the most dangerous lead

    not because of any comeback but because their tournament is over so they might just get even more reckless

  • Waffles5-56 hours ago

    Could the team just call ICE on themselves and get free flights home?

  • puns_are_how_eyeroll๐Ÿ‘ค56 hours ago

    Fuck right off with that shit.

  • AC_Slater77๐Ÿ‘ค56 hours ago

    Now get Jonathan David out of there before one of these cheap shot artists do something stupid.

  • Master-Defenestrator86 hours ago

    This could get very messy very quickly, I would sub off Buchanan now, maybe also J. David

    Edit: Marsch, we’re on the same page.

  • Kurakurguhoiuala56 hours ago

    Props to the ~6 Canadians to the left of the Salvadoran net, cause I’m pretty sure they were also there loud as shit against Curacao.
