I laughed and laughed as well. although I must confess I laugh at any European "powerhouse" getting trounced by lowly USA! Although this time I am rooting for England against other Eurozone teams. I think England should do well if they copy the Chelsea never say die spirit!

actually the USA has more registered soccer players than almost any other nation and
do you speak on behalf of all Americans when you say that they couldn't care less?
clearly some Americans do care.

Today, however, according to FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association),
the United States has more official soccer players than ...[text shortened]... d is roughly five million and i would say about a fifth of
them play soccer, maybe even less.

Illegals don't count!! 😠

Seriously though, every time I see groups of serious older soccer players they are mostly hispanic.

Dont worry about it all the best players outside of the USA are latinos and Hispanics and southern European types, probably due to the same physical attributes that make them good dancers I expect😞

Actually quite good. Harsh result does not show how USA was taking it to the boy wonders! The woodwork was defending better than Brazil. Great GK! They(USA) did not look listless like our kilted brethren from across the pond. Now there is a wimpy bunch. That said, Brazil is not nearly as good as they claim although they have incredible skills. The soft PK awarded by the ref was a problem and tainted the result.

That kit is truly horrid! Horizontal stripe should be reserved for rugby! Or little girl footie!

I hate to disappoint you, pazzo, but Scotland are not a "powerhouse" in anything but Tossing the Caber. Certainly not in football.

We all know that already and I never said they were any good. Yet USA is to Brazil what Scotland is to USA. USA beat Scotland quite convincingly whereas Brazil was forced to defend and hang on and was helped by ref and woodwork.

I guess you did not watch the game. Even Brazil reserves are starters everywhere they play. Ref does not give the PK and match might have been quite different. I for one simply underline that USA came to play and were beaten by a superior team and USA did not seem at all daunted by them. Woodwork, good GK and bad ref usually means defeat for the lesser team. Scotland, by comparison, looked horrid against USA who lose to reserves of first tier countries. Now which team would you rather support?
