It’s so funny the contrast between you guys who are proud of your fun loving soccer guys doing a good job and, most importantly, having fun, and the majority of our USA idiots who think we should be winning the World Cup or something and are getting extremely pissy

lol, you're right but I think the issue people are rightly having with the US is it feels like there's more than just a skill gap at play, given how stupidly good they are at the high press you'd expect a manager to exploit that and just spam shots and crosses and let the law of averages carry through until you get better finishers.

The Aussies on the other hand absolutely punched above their weight and if not for an absolute brainfart could well have looked a different story after 90 minutes in the round of 16 despite on paper having no right to be there. For all of Lionel Messi's Argentina's possession and chances, it was hardly a rout.
