They have such a strong physical capacity that could match our athleticism.
We have a better athleticism than Belgium.
That has been the strength of our team.
So I think your analysis is astute in that we can overpower and we can run with Belgium.
Technically, I think they have some players that are from man to man, probably a little bit superior to the U.S.,
But I think in terms of our spirit, our identity, our togetherness, but more importantly, I think our athletic ability just to run teams down, I give us the edge.
And that's why I think Belgium is a better matchup for us than Senegal.
And absolutely, I go into this matchup thinking, if anything, I think the U.S.
is potentially a little bit favored here.
I don't think you do because if you're considering the time in which the game, the red card came in that game, the U.S.
played down a man for 30 plus minutes.
I think it was 36 minutes by the end.
That's a pretty substantial punishment for a player that gets a red card and then all of a sudden your team is down an entire man for the rest of that game.
It's interesting, though, because you do have to have some version of a punishment for the different degrees of red card.
And once you start to then, if you're grading a red card and you're saying, well, that's even worse of a red card, that's where they have the multiple match suspensions and they'll re-review something.
Maybe you're onto something in that you could say, look, that was a red card that was just enough of a red card.
Maybe it's an orange card in a way where they've missed...
enough time in that game, and then now that player doesn't have to miss the next game.
They've been really good, in fact, FIFA, in re-reviewing the processes around yellow cards.
Thank goodness for this tournament.
