The amazing part of US football is that the team will be a melting pot of US born players whose parents are probably from another country. That’s just beautiful

I remember that goal in the qualifier against TNT - I was a kid still living there at the time. Was heartbreaking to the local team but it was a magnificent regardless. Things have come a long way since, having lived in the US and watching soccer grow over the years.

I will say the player that made me love football was Dennis Bergkamp but I am still an American and I will be forever grateful for players like this who made us fall in love with football. We may not win the WC anytime soon, but if you visit the USA go to a MLS game, they are really fun.

I was 15 when I watched him catapult us into this run of 7 Copas in a row, and that game is part of why I am a hard traveling American Outlaw today... the look in his eyes at the final whistle matched the numbness in my heart as we realized the run was over. Talk about coming full circle... the disappointment was, and still, overwhelming. Many an angry utterance was heard, and both of these National Team veterans were right there with us, shocked, angry, and frustrated that the legacy was taking a step backwards. #SunilOut time to rebuild from the top down. #UniteAndRally

I think did have the potential which is why there was 6 consecutive world cups. Nowadays the competition is suffering from youth leagues. There is no drive to win because everybody gets a participation trophy and more and more kids are quitting sports at younger ages. With American football you have a near religious pocket of community support. Soccer doesn't have that, not in America. I see only a decline for US soccer unless overseas nationals playing in the MLS or elsewhere declare their intent. With all the recent political immigration changes I find even that to be less likely to happen in the future.

americans usually have a great morale. if they only had 1 innate creative captain and a good striker, with the rest of the team as average workhorses, such a mix could already do damage at a world cup. just 1 or 2 real talents. those players could then serve as rolemodels and hopefully redefine youth academies to better technical and tactical guidance on talented youngsters. usa has a great potential, but not yet the culture.

Developing the academy structure is in process now, as US Soccer is affiliating with different club organizations (outside of Braedenton), as MLS clubs are working on their own academies now (like Real Salt Lake and DC United) it will be interesting to see how this all works out in regards to the national team. I agree that we need to get more creative as a squad, and also it's clear we need to develop technical ability (especially with speed and in tight spaces), I think tactically the US has a much better understanding of what they need to do, it's simply a matter of not have the ability to do so on the highest stages. This world cup I saw that same fight from the US that I love about them, but it's at a point now, where we will get no further on desire and physicality alone. Now is the time that the real work begins, 2018 should be the a great showing for the US.

Scoring in like the 70th or 80th minute. I just found that interesting. Or maybe that's just what some football fans do before the match starts. And as a Canadian i'll never know how we qualified for Mexico 86 and not the United States. I'm looking forward to the U.S. , Mexico and Canada cohosting the WC in 2026.

Wonderful bloody goal. I enjoy watching the U.S., men's teams. Initially, I thought the U.S., would be brash, cocky, red and white and blue type shit heads. However, they've really proven me wrong. They play football the way it should it be played. They don't dive around, they tackle hard but fair, they're pretty humble, they do the simple things well enough to beat anyone - with a bit of luck. Obviously, they were crap this time around, but I hope they keep their fantastic attitude and get back in the mix. They're how I want kids to play the game. As for the women's side. I can't deny their skill, but their sportsmanship, and attitude pales in comparison. Hope Solo, want's respect for the women's game after she brawls with her family and sends out Beaver pic's... I'll never forget the game they played against Canada all those years ago, talk about nasty. Nope, I'm not a Canadian, lol.
