US Coach Gave Team a 'Talking To,' Howard Says
“I played with three of their top players and I played against a lot of them in the English Premier League so they’re a tough team,” said Howard, a New Jersey native who played for Manchester United from 2003 to 2007.

“We’re a tough matchup for everybody and we feel like the way we’re playing right now, we’re going to give them a good game,” he said.

World Cup 2014: a colourful carnival of football that could be the best ever
It has been the tournament when Thomas Müller, Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben have confirmed their reputations, James Rodríguez has fully announced himself on the highest stage and Lionel Messi has set about trying to end the argument once and for all about whether he warrants his place alongside Maradona and Pelé as football’s elite.
