Anyone else watching?
I just weatched Brazil win 4-3 in an exciting game with Egypt.
I woke up with about 5 minutes into the 2nd half and just in time to see Egypt score 2 goals in about 30 seconds. I thought the 2nd goal was a replay lol
Now is the US vs Italy matchup
Who's ready for it?
Taping it at home, but don't think I can hold off watching for the score.

US doesn't win a game if Egypt plays like they did Brazil.
It'd be nice if Rossi plays later and scores a couple on the US.

You might be right.
What time does Mexico play?

1-0 at half.
US leads former World Champs Italy.
They are playing a man down though.
I have a feeling the US is going to get it's first win vs Italy today

And what do you know...Rossi scores.
Love that he celebrated.

What time does Mexico play?
Mexico beat Brazil, went to penalties with Argentina and put up a great fight against Germany in '05.
US won't do the same.

You would probably like it more if he burned an American flag.

2-1
DeRossi scores...although watching him knock someone out would've been cooler.

because the first one was a dive...

No he clipped him coming in. IDK if I would have called it but he brought Donovan down. It really was reckless.

Altidore should've been called for obstruction...that was a dive.

Why is it not surprising that you root for a US born player to beat his country.

It took a red card and two subs for them to outplay the US. I wouldn't be all that happy with the match if I was an Italian supporter.

Egypt should've never tied it up but Brazil was half a**ing it from the very beginning of the 2nd half. Kaka wasn't even trying and was just jogging because they thought it was over after the 1st half. Brazil always shows up in tournaments.

They were MIA at WC 06. The start of Gaucho's decline.

That's nothing for Brazil. They've usually treated that tournament as little more than a U-23 exhibition.

You're thinking about Copa America 2003 because that team was getting ready for the Olympics.
Brazil always cares about the Copa America...especially when the final is against Argentina.

Smart. Why play for the US when you have the skills to play for a powerhouse like Italy.

I'm glad a bunch of Patriots back in Boston and Philadelphia weren't turncoats and want to play for Britian back in the day.
Let me help you get ready for the USA-Brazil match.
Ossaaammmmmmaaaa Ossaaammmmmmaaaa Ossaaammmmmmaaaa Ossaaammmmmmaaaa
Even if we don't win, I'll be wearing the colors.

The US soccer team is a joke if they lose to Italy! they are gonna get beat up again against Brazil. Now if they lose to Egypt, that will be pathetic.

Good point.
Who does Italy think they are the World Champs or something? Brazil easily beat Egypt as well. It's not like they needed a questionable penalty to win.

:notworthy
In my eyes the US lost 2-1 against Italy.
That 3rd goaL was US fighting for an offensive possession.
It really was an exciting game to watch.
Brazil vs US might be closer than what some would predict.
Thursday’s match against FIFA No. 5 Brazil will be the 6th time the USMNT has faced a team ranked in the top five since the start of 2007.
Quick fact for you lol

Egypt should have been caslled for a handball in the US game today. It prevented the US from winning 4-0 but still the US beat Egpty today.
Where will yall line up to eat your crow?
