This was (not likely anymore), the mantra of the US men's national soccer team. I'm sure it referenced their outsized chance to win the World Cup in June this year held in the States, Mexico & Canada. However today, our lads played the Belgium national team in a friendly in Atlanta & got demolished, 5-1. Of course, Belgium is a better team than us and was favored. But 5-1? I expected a much better showing & some momentum heading into the WC. After this fiasco, expect an instant replay in 3 days vs Portugal, a team higher rated than Belgium. Our group stage opponents must be dancing in the streets after today.

It was 5-2 but thats not much better. We mishit a bunch of balls on the box in the first half. I don’t think thus is the final squad we see in the cup thus summer.
