Not sure if any of you are world cup fans but USA just made the knock out stage or final 16.
The got the 1-0 against Iran. They essentially owned Iran in the first half and with the lead went a bit defensive which open the door for a few attacks from Iran.
Probably the most impressive thing in the group stage was USA performance against England. England is one of the favorites and top 5 in the world. In that game the USA had about equal possession and seven corner vs Englands 3. It was also clear that the USA had the faster team. I have watch many world cups and have never seen a USA team that can possess they way this team does. The one thing it does lack is dynamic scorers. That being said I think they can hang with anyone on the field. They have the Netherlands Saturday at 10. If you haven't tuned in yet I would highly recommend tuning into this one.
