World Cup fever has hit. A tight match against England in the US's first game led to a 1-1 draw. They did not attack and goto the ball as much as they should have in the first game. The first half against Slovenia this same team showed up. They were down two goals in the first half, and deservedly so. The second half a new team appeared on the field full of aggression and passion. Eventually bringing the game to a tie with 2 goals. Then the official took a goal from the US. An obvious bad call by the ref negated a 3rd goal for the US, in which if anything should have been a goal plus a penalty shot for the obvious holding (bear hugs) taking place during the free kick for the US. So the US ends up with a 0-0-2 record, with 3 goals scored so far in the tournament. If they can beat Algeria with a couple of goals, I believe they can move to the second round. I do not think that England can win against Slovenia. England finished with a 0-0 draw with Algeria and they played very poorly. I believe Slovenia will win against England and the US will win against Algeria moving them both to the Round of 16. GO USA!!
