IMO, it's obvious what our YNT needs are the following.We played defense the whole game. We had 3 total shots and zero on goal. We didn't even have a legitimate chance to score. With the two players up top that we had that is a serious concern. Maybe Pugh and Sanchez should have been in the midfield. They were the only ones that could hold possession against Japan. How do we get outshot 29-3?
