I'm still a little pissed off about that last winning goal that was taken away from the US just because the refs were being complete assholes...and I didn't even see the game! DX

Apparently the US played pathetically during the first half. Too much prancing around basking in their own glory. -.-

Uh...what? They pranced around basking in their own glory? Are we talking about the same team? The US team are the complete underdogs and they know it just as much as anyone.

I think they just sucked...defensively, and then had to fight tooth and nail to get even...and then the third goal, which I saw, was totally legitimate but the ref called a foul and disqualified the goal...which was total BS!

Being the so-called 'underdogs' doesn't mean they're not cocksure and overconfident (and they aren't the only team like that).

Uh yeah, I guess, but that also doesn't mean that they are cocksure and overconfident. Coz at least when I watched that match against England, they sure as hell didn't act that way...and in the interviews leading up to the match with Slovenia, which is the team at the top of their group now, all the US players were saying how serious they were about this match, because if they didn't tie or win it, they'd be kicked out of the group.

SO...uh...who the heck told you they were acting that way?

A friend of mine (American) who watched the match.

And America aren't that much of the underdogs. They're 17th in the FIFA rankings, out of 25. If anyone's the underdog in recent matches it's Switzerland (24th) who beat Spain (2nd) thus the WTFing about Spain.

I just can't see that, given how important the match was for them, but whatever. I really think they just have a poor defense and their offense had to make up for it.

Yeah, the US team actually beat Spain in the qualifying rounds too. Spain isn't as good as everyone says they are.

I'm also very disappointed in England. By rights we SHOULD have a good enough team to get some clean wins... and that Algeria match was abysmal. -_-

Oh yeah, I just heard about that! For some reason I thought the match was on Saturday and not today...so I completely missed it! I meant to watch the US v Slovenia game too, but it was on at 7am here and my alarm didn't go off. DX and then I proceeded to miss the England match..although now I'm kinda glad about that coz I heard it was terribly uneventful.

I also heard from French friend of mine that their team is so dogged by scandal and controversy that 70% of the French don't even support them. That's SAD.
