For the past 10 years I have been hoping that football in USA would improve because it would improve the sport as a whole, they have the tech and the cash and all the facilities... I'm terrifically impressed with how well they did in these last two games. Nobody would have expected them to beat Spain!! And they came very close to taking Brazil down. I'm very pleased to see the powerhouses of football scratching their heads, things can only get better!

They dominated us in the second half
The time of possession was obscenely lopsided.
The US looked rushed on every touch.

Originally posted by Mctaytolast 16 out to a lucky spain in 2002, when was the last time scotland made it to a world cup? 😛 have a feeling we'll make an appearance next year as well 😉
At least we live in the real world unlike RN and his countrymen 🙄
We have potential to give the best in the world a good game plus the potential to lose to the worst 🙁
Since Jack Charlton & Bingham I notice your lot don't achieve much 😉
the us aren't that bad, 1/4 in 2002, no? better than scotland and ireland imo. well, actually i wouldn't mind seeing the us vs ireland at the next world cup, should be close.
btw how does it feel to be looking at finishing second in your qualifying group and not even making it into the playoffs? 😛
