USA moves on!

You only get 3 subs a game, so the coach won't pull anybody out until they're absolutely done for the game.

well, there's that but more importantly is subbing in defensive or Offensive specialists to provide better scoring chances or help hold a lead. Nothing quite like playing for 85 minutes and then have a race with a new guy who hasn't run all day.



I think almost every player is conditioned to play all game long, unless injured but fresh subs are arguably the coaches best strategic game-time weapon.
