Every time this account dares to post anything they get mercilessly dunked on … Not sure I remember seeing anything else like it. Endlessly fascinating.

Happy birthday to Tony Meola 🎂 Here he is in Trinidad, moments after the #USMNT qualified for the 1990 World Cup. He was only 20 years old. Once Tony came into the side, the US didn't concede a single goal in qualifying ... four straight clean sheets.

35 years ago today the #USMNT lost a friendly against the USSR in Palo Alto 1-2. 61,000 watched, which set a new record. Here's John Harkes not quite letting the Cold War end, and Peter Vermes selling a penalty like his rent's due (which Harkes converted). How about these kits?

BIG #USMNT ANNIVERSARY: 35 years ago, the team recorded 'Victory' in historic A&M Studios. Say what you will about it: These guys were headed to the World Cup, having fun, trying their hardest to popularize soccer (no easy task then), and they shot their shot. Let's all enjoy.

Brutal story, but probably could've been even worse. It's been a while since I've truly "liked" watching the #USMNT theguardian.com/football/2025/…
