If you play good defense, you can prevent the other side from scoring.

Football games generally don’t lead to blowouts unless one team is very weak against the other.

It would be no shame if the US kept it a tie today, it would still be assured of making it to the next round.

But winning their group would be doing the impossible. Then again, no one predicted they would defeat Ghana.

All eyes are on them tonight.

“If you play good defense, you can prevent the other side from scoring.”

True but if you allow the other team to continually attack and play on your side of the field eventually they will score while you give yourself ZERO chance of scoring.

If it is 2-0 maybe, but 1-0 you still have to attack. Going to prevent defense with almost the whole game left?
