I don't think anyone would say that the US Soccer/Futbol Team is great. However I would say that they have and continue to work on getting better. Especially since soccer is not even a big sport in America. What do you think? And any thoughts on the Olympics or more importantly FIFA World Cup.

Well we dispatched Poland 3-0 recently, good signs. We should win the CONCAFAC division easily because Mexico is getting worse by the day. Then its World Cup time

The USA has some excellent goalkeepers.

Shame about the rest of your squad tongue

I'm looking forward to the England-USA friendly next month.

We looked poor against Cuba hopefully we can pull it together against a better T&T team

true. that was a pretty sloppy performance...albeit on a crappy field in the pouring rain. But T&T is missing one of their stars Dwight Yorke, so hopefully it won't be as tough as it should be.

Donovan is one of the few American outfield players I rate; nice to see an assist from him. I'd expect him to score later on in the game, too.

3-0 Final score. The US played well enough, T&T never threatened, and for the last 20 minutes it was just a passing drill for the US. They always do that, just dick around with the ball, never truly putting down an opponent. Nonetheless... we're 3 wins in to round 2 of world cup qualification.
