dammit dammit dammit - Let's go guys

[Bukefal]

You all can be very proud of your team. They did a great job. No one would have expected the USA to surprise this much. I hope football will improve in the States and I hope it will become more popular than it is now.

[symple19]

3 minutes is generous - let's take advantage

[symple19]

A good result - not a win but something to build on going into Azteca - we'll need every bit of this effort to survive the Mexicans

[symple19]

thanks for the intelligent discussion folks

[iggypop123]

what a choke. they just lost all the good praise they earned

[velik_m]

USA ran out of steam in the end. Good showing by the USA in tournament. I don't think Spain and Brasil disappointed either.

Good showing in this tournament. We have a year to work on learning how to properly execute a throw-in now!

[DAF86]

Even though it hurts, this is definitely something to build on and learn off. US players now know that they can beat anybody and I'm sure the US will eventually be big in football some day, it's too big of a country and every person on FIFA wants them to do well, so I'm pretty sure this won't be the last time we hear about them.

That's true, imagine if football was very popular in the states and attractive for the youth with good youth training programs just as they have for basketball and american football, then the usa would have been definitely one of the dominating football countries in the world I think.

Talk about soccer blue balls.

[mookie2001]

it sounds like yall are trying to flatter the US into liking soccer

[DMX7]

Good effort. I enjoyed the game even though there was no Ronaldiho or whatever his name is.

[lefty]

USA have a good team.

Brazil don't have a team with a lot of great players but are doing OK
