As to why Americans are all of a sudden interested. It's the worlds best teams playing. That's the same reason a lot of people don't watch baseball until the world series. I'm expecting it to be awesome. |

And I get why some people might not have enjoyed watching Argentina with their tactical passing possession game but to me it was great drama. Messi and Tevez are wizards and it was only Vincent Enyeama the freakishly acrobatic Nigerian goalkeeper that saved Nigeria from going three or four goals down. Best of all was Maradona stalking his technical area. The Madman was on camera more often than some of the players. |

Usa did get lucky that green let that ball slip, and even though they had one good shot on goal by altidore, that doesn't make them 50/50. England had more shots on goal and held possession more often than the US. Ill agree the second half was more even, but the US wasn't even with England. |

The US had possetion 59/41 at the end of the first half. Then in the second half they forgot how to complete passes and their game went to hell. |

and how can you own a half when from minute 6 you are trailing behind, and are only lucky to score in the last 5 minutes of the half to draw? Last edited by club america; 06-12-2010 at 11:48 PM. |

I think you're right that Argentina could have trouble against more streetwise defences though. Against Holland and Germany for example I think they could find themselves missing a combative centre forward. Tevez and Messi are small and quick and skillfull but they'd be more effective if they had some Batistuta type muscle up front to play off of, and Higuain and Milito don't really seem to offer that. Of course it's all academic since New Zealand is going to sweep them all aside on the way to glory. |
