I don't know what match you're seeing, but Honduras look like they're trying to kill somebody right now. Even Pogba's kick (which should have warranted a red) was in response to what should have been a red for Honduras.
It's no surprise. Honduras always play like assholes like this. They have a lot of talent, but they feel the need to act fools on the pitch: Overly aggressive fouls and egregious flopping whenever anyone fights back.
"Suárez, the Honduran manager, went further in his defence of his players - he’s quoted in the Honduran press as having it that “in no way can you call us violent, what we have is attitude”. Possibly the kind of attitude that gets the odd card, but we, and French shins, shall find out."
Argentinian tactics:
- Give Messi the ball in space
- Messi maneuvers through 3 defenders like they aren't there
- Defense collapses on Messi; Messi finds teammate with room on the edge of the eighteen
- Teammate mishandles first touch; attack falls apart; Messi frustrated

Well this is probably the ideal first half for USA. Germany's going to qualify either way, so you love to see them put Portugal in such a huge hole in terms of differential. Plus, Pepe won't be on the pitch for the US-Portugal match now which will be a big boost.

I was just coming here to post that. Hopefully America's self confidence boost by this match... But they first have to win against Ghana, which will be VERY exciting. I am so nervous!
