Agree also.

One thing I forgot to say was that I would have liked to go into the game, go to the Swedish linesman, ask him "Please give me your flag", then tell him "Bend over" and stick it up his ass....Did you see the two offsides he called? Especially the one on Cobi was INEXCUSABLE!!!

Shane & George,

"One will never be a prophet in their own land", the harshest critics will be your own.

You must not forget that they played just about the best team that we have seen, these Germans, played flawlessly, and further they did not allow the US forwards one millimeter of space.

No excuse, the Germans won, a far better team, but the US is perfectly capable to beat the Iranians and the Yugos. They need to re-adjust the starting team as already expressed, but this team can go on to the next phase.

In the second half they improved and created a couple of good opportunities. The other two teams in their group are not near as good as the Germans.
