Hey there. Welcome to Football with Grant Wall. Thanks so much for joining me. We've got

a special episode today in partnership with Metal Lark and Levitard and Friends with

reaction from Landon Donovan, Chris Wittingham and me to the US men's national teams for

one win at Honduras and World Cup qualifying game three. Landons in San Diego where he

coaches San Diego loyal Chris is in South Florida. I'm in San Pedro Sula where I'm writing

for my sub stack newsletter, which you should subscribe to free or paid at grantwall.substac.com.

Guys, it's great to see you. How are you? Like you tired, emotionally exhausted, but also

relieved. Yeah, I mean, the turnaround from the first half to the second half was I mean, I'm

I'm preparing to do a really almost like a post-mortem on the Berhalter era. I'm ready to do

the what the hell is wrong. We're not going to qualify for the World Cup again. And now I guess

things are I don't want to say fine because I think fine is a stretch. Things are okay. That was an

okay window in the end when you look back at the three games. It's five points, right? So if you

had said at the beginning of this window, the US is going to get five points, which we would have

presumed to be three points at home against Canada ties on the road against El Salvador and Honduras,

not how it came about. It looked like it was going to be two points at halftime. Landon,

what went through your head watching this game and the highs and the lows? Yeah, I think the same

thing I at halftime I was thinking, wow, this is this is two points from the first three games.

And we haven't played Mexico yet. And we haven't played Costa Rica yet. We haven't played Canada

away. We haven't played Panama away. Haven't gone to Jamaica yet. So this was getting close to being

very serious. And then talking to a lot of people yesterday after the match, there was this sense that

well, the substitutions made all the difference. And what I saw watching was yes, that was the case.

And obviously Pepe was great. Sebastian was great. Cristiano Don was great when he came in.
