Talk to me about facing strong opposition.
Yeah, look, he's talking about, Pochettino's talking about the details and that's the difference in his mind between Portugal and the United States.
The fact that in the details, they are better than you.
That in the details, Trincao finished to the far post, whereas Pulisic did not.
And so the difference, yes, it is indeed in the details, but the details are what separates the really good team from the not so good teams.
I'm not giving up on the United States.
And I don't think that's what this conversation is about.
I think this team can be a version of themselves that is not about we're going to play teams that are better than us straight up.
No, that they can be far more about, and it's a conversation that we had following the matchup against Belgium,
It's something that Ian is talking about, that you can fight.
And you can do that against better teams in preparation for the World Cup because that's how you're going to advance in the World Cup.
That's how you're going to be successful in the World Cup.
It won't be because you will outplay a superior team.
