FT: #USMNT 2, Paraguay 1

chaotic finish at the end - Omar Alderete picks up a red card after the fight, Junior Alonso and Cristian Roldan pick up yellows

this friendly is friendly no more — a fight has broken out between Paraguay and the #USMNT, and it’s only dissipating now

#USMNT 2, Paraguay 1

Folarin Balogun gives the U.S. the lead - hasn't been the most active outing for him tonight (he's only had about 14 touches so far) but he's now on a streak of scoring in three straight starts for the team

Sergino Dest's had a nice outing in attack so far and just came up with one of the #USMNT's shots of the night - and their first shot since the 19th minute

HT: #USMNT 1-1 Paraguay

US' best attacking moments have almost all been on the right side, with Gio Reyna and Sergino Dest performing well but there's an unevenness and the quick start has given way for a gritty game - no shots for either team since the 24th minute

...and just like that, it's 1-1 before the 10th minute thanks to Alex Arce - the sizable Paraguayan contingent in the building were definitely happy about that

#USMNT

barely a few minutes on the clock and Gio Reyna has the opening goal of the game - making the most of his opportunities back with the #USMNT so far

Mauricio Pochettino on having Gio Reyna and Sebastian Berhalter in camp at the same time: “it’s not important,” they’re “mature” enough to handle things and they seem like “good teammates”

#USMNT

of note: Atlanta is the first #NWSL expansion team with a long-term plan to play on artificial turf

also: the league will now be in 8 of the top 10 U.S. media markets (only missing Dallas and Philadelphia now)

turns out I do not know how to read!
