I have been impressed with USA's back line. They are playing better than I thought they would.

Yeah, you can't leave the door open at all when you are playing Gareth Bale. USA got lax and sloppy and Wales capitalized with the penalty.

He had done nothing all day until Zimmerman made a foolish tackle. Would like to have seen Reyna in the 2nd half. We needed to possess the ball more and he would have certainly helped there. A result is better than a loss but now we face England. The worry is if we drop that game, England will have qualified, do they rest some players v. Wales.

Poor play in the second half. We played not to lose and tied.

This will likely put us in a position where goal differential will matter luckily we play Iran last. Unless the Brits already have six points and lay down for their brothers.

England won't lay down for the US. Unless the US find something they haven't had recently, and the English all get sick, it might be a long day. We shall see! It's the glory of world cup!

Holy crap!!!!!! Saudia Arabia beats Argentina 2-1!!!!! I am glad I got up and watched this one. History was made. Biggest upset ever. The Saudi Arabians played a high line defense and kept Argentina offsides and the goalie play was out of this world. That was just brilliant! Well done.

I didn't think Argentina would blow them out like others did.... But man... I was NOT expecting that. Love it when Argentina looses!

OK World Cup experts - I have a couple of questions - First, we watched the first half of the USA game before going to pick-up our granddaughter and We totally dominated and then we saw the final score - I know it was on a PK, but what the hell happened? Secondly, we know this is better than a loss, but how much does this really hurt the USA chance of moving on? We do always try to watch the World Cup matches and I do know a little about soccer (our daughter played travel soccer, high school and ODP) but I just couldn't understand the US strategy after scoring the first goal - it was like they went into a "4 corners" to play keep away instead of continuing to attack? I mean Wales didn't even sniff a scoring chance in the 1st half - it's puzzling to an average soccer fan???

USA played not to lose in the second half and didn't press as much.

A tie in this case likely brings goal differential into play versus Iran. If the US were to somehow tie England Friday that would be huge.
