Yeah, this tournament real stretch out!
It's seems to be lasting at least 1 week longer than necessary, wonder what's the reason for this?!
Does this allow them to make more money somehow?

I'm sure it does ... think about how much publicity football has gotten in the US since this tournament has started:

Beckham returns
Beckham book
Beckham/ Donovan row
Beckham/ fans confrontation
Beckham vs AC Milan
USMNT Defender debuts with touring AC Milan team
Jose vs Chelsea
Zlatan to Barca, Eto'o to Inter transfer

gives them much more time to spin and promote MLS in the US and in the International Football community.

might seem long to us, but almost ingenious from a marketing perspective

It don't look to me, like Honduras really playing to win this game.  The amount of schoolboy decisions I see them making when in possession is mind-boggling.

USA scores again near the end of the 2nd half after dominating most of the 2nd half and game ends Hon 0 - 2 USA!

USA in the final to face either Costa Rica or Mexico!

Well done to the USA, its hard to bet against you winning the 2009 edition of the Gold Cup now!

They're playing in Soldier Field though, home of the Bears...none of the bastards play there as the MLS all play in Bridgeview where the T&T game was.  Furthermore, I'm pretty sure Honduran fans (that includes Mexicans rooting against the USA) outnumbered the US fans there.  Maybe they had less travel strains but even that I can't be sure of...if a match is in LA a Honduran or Costa Rican-based player would definitely be closer than an East Coast based American.  I wish it were true because I really can't stand the US team or its "fans" but its not.  If you really want things to be more fair stop the organizers from purposely trying to make a USA vs Mexico final.

why is it these Mexican fans are in US Stadia getting on like wild beast leggo?

It seems no matter where they go, it's the same nastiness with missiles raining down on the field.
You would think that Concacaf/ USSF get the idea from the earlier games and put some National Guard in the stands to buss dey ass for hooliganism.

Thank God in TT we don't have backwater fans like that. Waggonist yeah, but at least all of us have some class and broughtupcy in us.

it wouldve been so ironic if this game had gone to penalties and Mexico lost the shoot-out after missing that penalty in regulation.

I was watching that penalty hoping for a miss, because I was saying how can the football Gods reward a fan base with such boorish behaviour with a victory.

Ah mean, everytime I see that CR striker with the perm, ah does get vex - but ah does get infuriated when you can't take a corner because these fans have no class.

Well if Mexico hold on for this win, I really don't know who I want to win the final b/c it will be good if Mex beat the US, just for beating the US sake ... but then if the US beat Mex, we could use some of that psychological scarring & Mexican implosion if we are to get 4th place in the Hex.

haaaa equaliser 1-1 in injury time 94 minute ... it fleckin good for them Mexicans because if they fans didn't force the ref to put in more added on time because they decided to delay the game with missiles and imbicile antics, the game wouldve been long over.

PKs back on  :devil:
