Who's into soccer here?

What a great day for the red, white, and blue. They beat Egypt 3-0 and needing Brazil to beat Italy 3-0, they did it. Now Team USA plays the #1 team in the world - Spain. I would be psyched if USA beats Spain.

This is in the FIFA Confederations Cup. It's basically a "get to know your opponent before the World Cup in 2010".

Haha, awesome description and an awesome situation. I am pretty psyched about it. If they won I would freak out. xD

I was watching this on espn360. Good game, but I wouldn't get too excited. The US isn't at the same level as the top teams in the world, which isn't to say that they can't surprise someone.

Re: Who's into soccer here?

Yeah...true. They were the large favorites just because they were playing against Egypt. Egypt isn't really that good of a team; they did however get some lucky goals - but not against USA.

Soccer... Woo...

I'd like to see the US do well, but I don't think that this is the year that it is going to happen. I'll probably end up rooting for England or the Netherlands again.

You're talking about the FIFA World Cup. I'm talking about the FIFA Confederations Cup.

England, Brazil or Italia.

Football. Futbol. Soccer.

I could've said 'football' and thrown everybody off.

our team kinda blows.

we just beat spain 2-0

Re: Who's into soccer here?

I don't think I could get into soccer, since our team kinda blows.

However, I do think it's quite badass that soccer is the only sport that really has everyone from around the world for an epic tournament. World Cup would be so epic to visit, just because of the massive amount of energy in the stadium.

Yeah, I really wanted to go to 2010, but South Africa is a bit much. I should be heading to 2014 no matter where it is, unless I'm seriously strapped for cash. I know someone who went to '06 and he had a blast. I can't wait to go.

HELL YES. Hard to believe we pulled it off with all of the pressure that their strikers put on us like... the entire game.
