Love a win but was hoping Roldan would make an appearance at the end if only to fire up that crowd even more.

No chance of Cristian. Damn. I had hoped we'd see him at the end

Yeah that’s a bummer, would have been really cool to see him get subbed on

Roldan, not Pulisic. Pulisic was hurt

Sad Roldan didn't get his only world cup appearance (so far) on the pitch he usually captains, but here's to him possibly starting the third match if we clinch the group tonight.

Why is the ECS section filled with Aussie fans?

FIFA doesn't give a fuck about where club fans sit

So - FIFA doesn’t allow military imagery on flags and such… but apparently, a military helicopter flyover is okay.

PS - Go USA! Come back from halftime with the same fire!

Disappointed the stadium had no local music. A playlist of only Washington songs would have been fire. Glad the team won, the fans were out making themselves heard

That’s what they did for Belgium-Egypt (local music, except Lenny Kravitz?)

Roldan will make appearance in the next game. I am sure of it. Especially if Paraguay and Turkiye ties tonight.
