Klose had a potential chance to make his 6th goal here, and extend the German lead to 2-0.

Kahn Titan.

El VAR hubiera cambiado muchas cosas...

[@scninja07]

01:16 Still a handball after all these years!

[@FerM90]

1:40 That was penalty :o

[@karlstriepe8050]

VAR gives ups the handball, Reyna converts the penalty, and ... we probably lose in overtime.

[@dw3850]

I don't know, kinda had them on their heels.

[@andrewlopez8595]

Maybe but that handball should have been a Red card. Don’t forget Germany should have been down to 10 players.

Best 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Team. Aunque Nos duela a los mexicanos pero ese si era mano y penal

[@generaciondorada6566]

Lo bueno es que los Imperialistas perdieron, lo que tienen que ganar para llegar arriba esos, primero que respeten al fútbol y le dejen de decir soccer, con respeto sería football, pero bueno esta gente no respeta muchas cosas en el mundo

[@elvergudo2487]

Igual los gringos metieron mano contra México y no les marcaron nada. Fue karma

[@daphneaisemberg8143]

Just wait for the USA's golden generation to come of age. WC 2026 in the USA with that team.

[@brigade1219]

Karma got Michael Ballack on that Chelsea vs Barcelona game where they didn't give Chelsea the PK for the handball inside the area 😂

[@johnathanha9340]

They were really unlucky against Germany. South Korea was lucky against Spain. It really could be the winner of Spain v US in the final against Brazil.

[@nunyabiz2016]

That's outrageous. That was a handball, penalty all day
