Why do you thank me? Your team is fighting hard and in a disadvantaged position. The Italians have the better team, but they´re not showing it today. I have sympathy for underdogs. Plus, it makes the competition more exciting and helps to promote soccer in the States.
How can anyone say soccer isn't exciting?
I'm going nuts here.
After the last world cup, one would expect a German to have modicum of respect for the US team :-)
I'm looking forward to Ecuador deflating our German hosts.
Then I'm looking forward to England ending it.
