      To be fair, we can’t just put the blame on Troussier and ignore the goddamn fact that our players can’t handle the ball AT ALL. Can’t pass, can’t do first touch, can’t run, sometimes can’t even kick the ball powerful enough to make the Indonesian keeper feel he’s under any risk. Doesn’t help that Indonesia have their heritage, professional European players. Our best player struggled to make the bench for Pau. If not for Filip we could easily do a Brazil-esque disaster. No manager in this world can do wonders with these man. Our youth development is a horrible joke and wouldn’t be surprised if in U23 Asian Cup we get grouped.

    I think the reason for Australia going total scorched earth in that qualifying is because they were starting to push to leave oceania and they used the 2002 qualification process as a platform to demonstrate just how far above everyone else in the continent the socceroos were.

    There's a reason why the national cup of France (and England). Amateurs vs pros, watching stories about amateur players getting ready to play against the pros. This season, US Revel, a 6th division French team, played against PSG on Sunday at 8.45pm, which is unusual for amateurs and the whole world could watch them. I know they would lose the game and they lost 9-0. But they'll have memories to cherish forever.

    I actually think that even though next goal wins did bad at the box office its getting more views on streaming and itll be a cult hit in a few years, even though rogen did say the film made him a cartoon character, but expected when making a comedy.

    Being Australian, it’s always cool knowing that we hold the record for the most goals in an international game. But when you really look into it it doesn’t hit as hard because of all the trauma that these American Samoan players went through. The way they came back a few years later was just beautiful and I’d hopefully like to see them one day progress once they get back on track

    It shows great perseverance that they even played the second half against Australia, especially for players that young. Making it to the finish line is a greater victory for them than winning the match was for australia. Also the keeper should be proud for every save he made and people shouldn't ridicule him.

    The club football in American Samoa isn't going well too when facing continental competitions. True, FFAS teams are usually the punching bags of the OFC Champions League qualifying phase, but Vaiala Tongan was halfway of that team from the early 2000s. A double 14-0 and a 13-0 was worse than even Ilaoa & To'omata and Pago Youth ever were previously, and the fact that some teams forfeit matches during what is close to a 20 match season means there's almost no motivation to improve the game and the aspects that surround it.
    Depending on how the plans work for Marshall Islands and Palau, they can even surpass American Samoa over a long term.

    I feel like San Marino has decent chances winning a match against American Samoa. I mean, San Marino mostly gets humiliated against much bigger countries, but against a fellow microstate like Liechtenstein they actually won twice (2004 & 2024). Even their worst defeat against Germany (13-0) is nowhere as humiliating compared to Australia vs American Samoa (31-0).
