USA Soccer Advances in the Most Dramatic Fashion

If you wanted to increase fan interest in US Soccer, you couldn’t have drawn up a more perfect group stage round. The nation is now captivated. Most soccer people assumed the US would advance out of their group, however every game for the US has been drama, controversy and more drama. Since they’ve scored one more group goal then England, they’re luckily paired with, Uruguay, Korea, and Ghana, instead of Argentina, Mexico and Germany. The US will play Ghana next, and I actually know a lot about Ghana since most of their players have Serie A connections. I’ll tell you, they have more talent than the US. However this US team has everything going their way at the moment and their path to the semifinals has couldn’t be better.
