When goal differential is a tie breaker, that's not a smart play.

How do you propose to sub out all of your best players with only three

Left Shark Coug

6/11/19 4:21pm

You can't sub them all out. You can switch the positions they play and tell

Read more from this thread on other reasons USA didn’t do this.

You are entitled to whatever opinion you want. I think it is embarrassing

The only people that care are sensitive Americans.

Ahh, the old I know what everyone else in the world is thinking argument

Most of the people in the US don't care about women's soccer either, so I am not

in international soccer, women's and men's, each team gets a max of 3 subs per

If it was a youth team: Yes. But for a world cup: No.

Exactly my interpretation

Nothing compared to Australia's men's team in World Cup qualifying in 2001.

The main reason Australia switched was because...

This is the world cup. goal differential matters.
