    We're (USA) a bit slow to the ball, particularly in the midfield, but blocking shots fairly well; not sure it will keep.

    what a result this would be, USA were terrible at the beginning of the tournmament as well, kinda like Turkey at Euro 2008, only less dramatic.

    What an amazing first half. 2-nil USA. Donovan needs to be given another shot in Europe. Someone should look at Charlie Davies as well

    Yes it really is USA 2-0 Brasil, and it is now halftime. Howard has been the best for me so far; the defending for the USA needs to maintain if they are to achieve any sort of result.
    I won't rate every player through halftime, just the GK, and defenders, midfield, attack as a whole:
    USA:
    GK: 9
    Defenders: 8.5
    Midfield:5.5
    Attack: 7

    Brasil
    GK: 5
    Defenders: 6
    Midfield: 7
    Attack: 6

    Any one of the back 4 for the USA would be suitable at Celtic IMHO.

    Ok, but if it doesn't go in the USA's favor I will have to advise you to turn it to another channel.
