Last time around no one expected anything, and we beat portugal and mexico and then lost a dodgy game to the germans in the quarterfinals. And our team has improved alot since then. It'll be tough though, the Italians and the Czechs are imposing opposition, and I'm sure Ghana won't be pushovers. And whoever finishes 2nd in this group (our most likely result I fear) will no doubt have to play Brazil in the 2nd round. Still I'm well excited, we've got some quality young players who haven't played over here much, so could really cause some trouble (but could also fail spectacularly - fingers crossed).
hey i didn't know you were a yank! haha. i'm both yank and swede by citizenship, but fully swedish when it comes to football. ;) still, i hope the USA does well in order to promote the sport here. sadly though, the group looks absolutely killer...
