I agree, there's a reason they haven't lost yet and that Espana has. My friend told me he read an article basically saying the big footballing nations weren't taking their groups seriously, I think the Group stage has proven that theory so far.

It is obvious that Italy did not take their group seriously, much to their peril.

A friend of mine put it up on Facebook last night, so I've been spreading it around as much as I can anywhere that the World Cup is being talked about.

I love that video!

Screw all of you who trash soccer. Watching the last minute of this video, clearly its bringing a lot of Americans together to support our nation. Dont know what is more patriotic than that.

Also good run by our guys, just cant play comeback kids all the time. It was gonna eventually catch up.

It could have been better but Team USA had a good run. We won our group! We could have advanced deep into the tournament if we just could have eliminated the dumb defensive errors. We have some youth and we know what we need to improve before Brazil '14.

Nice to see them and France lose. Next out is England hopefully.

I don't even care about the soccer matches, but seeing overconfident, arrogant, elitist Europeans lose is entertaining....like watching the Canadians cry when we beat them in hockey.
