| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Allocation Disorder recording live from The Hammer. |
| 0:29.2 | That's right. We're in Hamilton, Ontario. I'm Sam Staiskel, joined by Paul Tenorio and Josh Cloak, my athletic friends and colleagues. |
| 0:38.5 | And we are just back from the donut box, Tim Horton's Field, where the U.S. men's national team lost a World Cup qualifier to zero to Canada. |
| 0:45.5 | Canada remains atop the group with the results, moves one step closer to qualifying for a world's cup for the first time and in generation. |
| 0:48.2 | The U.S., though the result was poor, doesn't hurt them too badly in the Concaf octagonal |
| 0:54.1 | standings. |
| 0:54.8 | Thanks to the fact that Mexico drew at home against Costa Rica, the U.S. is still in second, |
| 0:59.4 | level on points now with Mexico, but ahead of them on goal difference. |
| 1:05.2 | Guys, interesting game. Canada came out of the gates hot, scored in the seventh minute off kind of a nothing play. |
| 1:13.3 | Weird play, but an excellent, excellent move by Kyle Laren and Jonathan David to put them on the board. |

| 1:43.4 | In some ways, that's true. But for all that possession |
| 1:46.2 | and all of those times that they picked up the ball in dangerous spots in transition, |
| 1:51.0 | they didn't really have any clear looks apart from one late in the first half on a set piece. Paul, |
| 1:56.0 | I'll start with you. Overarching takeaways from this one. Well, first of all, I'm happy to be here in Hamptown with a native or a resident of Hamptown, |
| 2:05.9 | the Cloaker. |
| 2:08.5 | No, I thought for me it was really, and this is what I wrote in my story, it felt like two |
| 2:15.9 | very different types of teams. You have a U.S. team that very |
| 2:21.3 | clearly is not feeling or playing confidently. They don't ever look like they're, it's not |
| 2:28.8 | been since the Mexico game that I really felt like this was a team that was having fun and that |
