So, I take it the US lost ...

Does that mean we advance, like the last time we lost ? ?

100% guts effort by US Team in 2nd half of overtime...

and two super close chances that would have tied it..

but...

Belgium better.......significantly better actually, if you look at the stats.....

If not for Howard being one of the best in the world, it would have been 3-0 in regulation

Go Germany!

I'm good at math. I just don't care for soccer.

Mildly interested because the U.S. was playing today ...

So, is Brazil still the favorite (?)

If you don't like soccer maybe you should focus on why they only wore the red white and blue once rather than the strategy of advancing through group play as opposed to elimination rounds.

Why did the only wear the red white and blue once?

I thought the US was not as bad as the announcer were making them sound in the first half. They were dominated in the second half and Howard was just unreal. The extra time was just crazy. Thought it was over and then they decided to just go nuts and had a few very nice chances to tie.

All in all I thought the US did great to make it to the knockout round Didn't expect that. Just wish we could advance even though I knew we were not the better team today.

I don't know who to root for now. I like messi but was rooting for Switzerland today.

I knew the USA wouldn't win the whole thing but don't have a fall back. I've just been rooting for the underdog.

Belgium could be an underdog but I find them ho him.

I'll go with Germany now.

Great beef from Argentina...

Wondolowski choked near the end of the game...he was right in front of the open goal, three yards out with the ball at his feet, keeper to one side...just had to tap it in...but he tried to drive it through the roof...USA could've lucked out in regulation time.

Belgium was the better team and its players are more skilled. USA looked like the weakest team in the knockout round.
