I like how humble they are and realizing the talent of other countries. They will surprise themselves and the fans. Germany and USA will make it out the group.
I'm from the netherlands and man, the USA were brilliant in 2014! I enjoyed their matches.
You Diver
Thanks we appreciate your football too
I love the holland then
I'm from the U.S.A., and I'm very confident that SOME DAY SOON we'll win a world cup. Someday before 2050.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hey Jacob, betcha we win in the next decade.
Just look at all the young talent on its way.
Jacob Hamm Just dream you have to defeat other countries that are miles ahead from you like: Brazil, Argentina, Germany, England, France, Italy, Spain, Uruguay, Colombia, etc. You have to learn a lot
Football/soccer is very well on its way if not already the second most popular sport among youth, basketball being first. The US already has an exceptional wave of talent coming through, and it is only gonna get better. Soooo many middle class americans (especially white ones) play soccer plus the hispanic population and thats mainly where our talent is coming from. However, I think the demographic we have to get playing soccer is lower class black america. So many of the US' ll best athletes are african american lower to middle class, and they really only play football (american football) and basketball. But we are well on our way to becoming a powerhouse in the sport. Just you wait. I expect a very strong showing from the team in 2026, that should be the first year we compete with the powerhouses at the wc.
I believe that usa will win the world cup maybe 2038 or 2042 cause they got third place in 1930 world cup
US did pretty well in the WC 2014 and Tim Howard claimed the title of "God of Goalies"
Nah its Neuer who got golden glove but Howard also did gr8. Same with Ochoa. Lots of gr8 keepers
SwiftCross I thought that wasn't truly fair though. Neuer is the best goalie and he was on the best team, but he wasn't challenged very much, certainly not like Howard facing over 30 shots in one game. Not saying Howard earned it, but just saying.
Good point but he still made great saves
shnickel1 was that the match against belgium ?
Honda Dax Yes it was haha :).
I really hope soccer/football becomes popular in the US.
Me too, I was born and raised in the US and I absolutely love the sport!
It's definitely getting there
bmorebruh They did beat Germany
***** A new MLS team in Minnesota is coming soon, so hopefully it will start growing as soon as they play their first game.
Holy Child
I'll still wait for one in Milwaukee.
i am Brazilian but i luv to know that the americans are growing on the soccer and loving it each time more \☺/ ! congratulations US main team! good luck for ya here in my country!
Bosnia is with You USA.Hope you win all the matches in your group.It will not be easy but USA does miracles.You have to me most quality and underrated team you can make it to semi-final or final definetly.Go USA
"Do I think the US will win the world cup? No, Im Being Realistic here. Do I think the US has the ability to? Definitely."
I wonder what he means by that.
P.S. I really think that the USA team can do better than they did in the 2014 FIFA World Cup. They can go further than just 1/8 finals (or Round of 16). They are capable of much more.
Azer Efendizade we didn’t even qualify..... 😂
Danny Vergara for 2018
DSO exactly
What kind of logic is that
These videos are amazing, thanks for the hard work! Keep it up!
I miss the World Cup😔
This is the World Cup anything can happen I'm not saying we're going to win but let's get out there and make some noise.
Sry but stick to ur baseball mate
Glad Klinsman calls it football. :)
Klinsmann is from Germany, ofc he calls it football, why would he not?
ojhda My bad
Quite a few of us in the USA call it football now. Our players do as well.
Yes Donavan too?
I want to call it football but my buddies say, "that's a low scoring game". Yeah he's from Germany, but...wouldn't most of us Americans think he's talking about throwball?
Greetings from Mexico. As a fellow mexican, I can say we are cheering the U.S on! Viva USA! The USA vs german game is going to be awesome!
Mexico won the first Universitary or College American Football World Cup celebrated in Sweden, early this year 2014.
Mexico 62-0 Sweden
Mexico 53-0 Finland
Mexico 55-0 China
Final game: Mexico 14-6 Japan.
We are coming!
*christopher columbus was discovered by native americans
Good one, LOL!
if somehow we get past the group stage then we have to at least get to the quarterfinals because all the teams we are playing deserve that and more
The team as changed alot since then, and I don't want to be a "trash-talker" but I don't think U.S.A. will pass through the group but I think they will finally beat Ghan, I wish USA and all the other teams that are competing in the world cup good luck. :)
Cheers From Portugal.
No to Racism.
Yes to Friendshio and Union.
Lhunannon Ramos Respect to you! Also, I just want to have faith in the team, and the players need faith in themselves.
Yes lets hope for a great world cup filled with energy and emotion.
José Ramos Love Portugal's style. Their world cup is coming soon :)
pabspm :)
I knew we were Ghana win.
USA always produce good goalkeepers like Kasey Keller and Hop Solo.
Hope solo , mostly =D
Tim howard
Mario Ng well the u.s. with over 4 million registered soccer players they had better produce a few good ones.
Brad Friedel
victor valdes...wait what?
It's funny watching this now...
AMAZING fans !!!!
Great fans !!!
Good luck from Iran.
Good coach and a refreshing young team, I like how Jurgen searched for young talent instead of keeping "old" nonfit
players.
Despite of the tough group you guys are in, I hope you guys wil get far .
Can't WAIT!!!!!
Great Video much respect.
We wish you the best of luck United States of Amerika!
Greets Belgium
You played hard and well. Good job
Little did u know u took us out lol
BelgiumRedDevils Good game! You guys deserved to advance, you played like champions.
Greetings from the USA.
that was a great game ik im really late but i just got into football n i love my national team n i love the game againdt you all
Thank you we tru
Ok at 1:40.....no. Columbus did not discover the US. There were inhabitants all across the americas WAAAY before he got there. And besides, he sailed around the caribbean. Oh the historical inaccuracies.
Actually some vikings found the north american continent but they just leave
Go Team USA :)
Good luck, From Persia
Solid team and they have Klinsi. US boys can do some damage, no doubt !
Yes, they can do some damage to themselves!
Excited to see Altidore play!!
USMT will come stronger next world cup and in Copa America. Klinsmann has transformed the mentality, tactics, also instilled discipline and unity within the team. Things can only get better as long as the MLS and youth development system are taken seriously.
Great work
Goodluck USA!
Hope you are able to beat Portugal and Germany!
Greetings and best of luck from the Netherlands.
***** Best feeling ever, amazing party afterwards :)
The USA did good in the World Cup, yay!
Klinsmann is a legend ,this should be interesting.
Klinsmann is a good coach, but he will park the bus vs Germany and probably Portugal, Its hard to see them getting out of the group but if they don't lose to Portugal and get a win vs Ghana then they can make it out with 4 points and manage to go through on GD
Yes but it's hard to see him not playing defensively against Germany. The US beat Germany 4:3 because Germany were using their C team.
Asa Becker
We most likely don't stand a chance, but on any given day any team can be victorious. Still, the US pales in comparison to Germany and Portugal when it comes to football (never calling it soccer, I don't care what my fellow Americans think).
hope they can repeat 2002.
I see it more like Us losses to Germany like 3 to 1, then ties with Portugal 1 to 1, and beats Ghana 1 to 0...US leaving with 3points
Roger Arvizu *4 points
Jurgen Klinsman is a awesome guy, He was always a good striker for Germany national team, A nightmare for every defence.
I respect the USA
I used to live there
But.. I feel sad for them because if Ronaldo has a good day....
He'll tear the team apart
they make it!!!!! ronaldo? what a joke
christian hadaya messi is a joke
Abhishek Anand right
Good game USA, you played well. Greetings from Croatia
Good to see soccer growing in my country, and that the US is going to Brazil. I'm fairly new to soccer myself. LETS GO, USA USA USA!!!
USA! USA! USA! can't wait for the World Cup to start. hoping we can make it out of the group.
God bless u FIFA TV for open our eyes with this great videos but corruptions must eliminated.
Tough group but no excuses. If this team hopes of being among the best in the world, they will eventually have to play the best in the world.
Like ur comment, it's soo true
Oorah
Amen
People seriously need to get over this soccer/football argument. It doesn't have any effect on the game and does nothing to change anything. It's just people being picky for no reason. Here's a fact: we didn't invent the word, we just use it. Stop acting like we are murderers because we use a word that was invented to describe a sport. It makes no difference at all. Stop being so sensitive.
Anyways, rant over, GO USA!!! Our group is going to be so difficult, but it will make it that much more rewarding when we make it out.
I really hope we do good this year!!!
USA I LOVE YOU MY COUNTRY IS THE BEST IN MY EYES!!
A great team and totally underestimated. May the better team win :-)
I can see us being eliminated easily in the group stage, but I know that we will put up a good fight. Bob Bradley had our team on the right path, and I don't think he should have been sacked. Although I don't agree with Klinsmann's match tactics, I respect what he has done so far. He has given the team a new image and has forced the team to develop its own footballing "identity." I like that he has completely overhauled the team and given us some young, fresh faces that can be huge talents in the future. I definitely see a better squad incoming for 2018.
It would be very difficult for the USA to get past the group stage but I think they can pull it off.This is the strongest usa squad ever but getting into the quater finals will be incredibly hard getting into the final four would be a very long long shot but anything can happen in the World Cup anything can happen in sports(miracle on ice) this isn't the first time the USA are underdogs and we embrace being the being underdogs.
Yay Klinsmann!
Good to see USA making progress
USA is going to have tough with this group.
I hope we can play spoiler. We are in a TOUGH group with Germany and Portugal! On top of that, Ghana is in our group, who always give us trouble. In the U.S. now, they televise the EPL and La Liga in HD every week, which is awesome. Waking up early on weekends watching real Football, LOL, awesome. I hope Italy does well also.
im glad to see football grow in US, if it keeps growing like this in a few WC tournaments they might be able to win
I can see the future of soccer in the U.S will become the most popular sport Why? Because it's a beautiful game.
Klinsmann is a Legend ♥
after seeing portugal today and the US beating Ghana, im feeling pretty hopeful as a USA fan
I'm american and my favorite sport is soccer. (Football for the rest of the world.) Played soccer/football since I was 4.
+DavePazz What's the name for football in Italy
*****
what does it mean .-.
*****
that... makes no sense :( Why not call it kick ball :v
*****
In Canada and Australia they say soccer a lot
+EpicGift Calcio
the 2002 USA team came so close to Quarter finals and even went toe to toe with Germany who ended up being the Champions that was the best USA National team but this group is belt for 2018 its a young USA side that Klinsmann wants to grow together USA Golden generation in the making
Good Luck we can do this!
Why not more about the team players?? It would be so much more helpful and ten fold more interesting.
Morning of Ghana game, I'm american and can't wait for this matchup! There are plenty of people who care about soccer (football) in this country when the World cup comes around. Hopefully if the US succeeds in this World Cup, the sport's popularity will skyrocket. Plus since the amount of international people coming to the US is always rising, this will help evolve the sport as well. But I do want soccer to become popular here! GO USA!!!
What a group!!! Pretty much two finals before the final!!!!
You better represent Concacaf the best way possible muthatruckaz!!! You became the big guys of our region and my wonderful CR is kicking some balls (literaly) n' ass already so you better catch up!
Much love you beautiful international job generators :)
tim howard what a legend
Yanks and football in the same sentence?! You must be joking.
Americans love football, it is our favorite sport! But we think Soccer is for sissies. We will root for the team representing us though.
It is the 3rd most popular sport in terms of attendance and popularity and 2nd Among youths!
cant wait for the usa vs portugal game
Wow Positive Coach lmao
I don't care if America is not football[soccer] nation,but this players are all world class. They are competitive enough to be in a world cup. This players can beat any team. Of course they represent their country, but most importantly they represent football[soccer]. Respect them and support them when you see them playing. I am football[soccer] fan, and i only care about the quality of the players not the history of the country they are coming from.
Thank you finally someone on here with respect
U.S.A you can do it! Jurgen Klinsmann is gonna be a good coach too
I'm betting that USMNT will win a world cup before Mexico at the rate they're playing. I wish Mexico can step up and go pass the round of 16 and finish in third or second place.
bmorebruh
Yes, it is greater than Mexico though. So U.S. might the first North American country to win a world cup.
usa is shit now lose 0-2 to Colombia
+Cristian Huachi Now they are in semi finals
Whoa... They are going up against some BIG guns ... best of luck guys
Landon Donovan is the best American layer and he will score a lot of GOOOOOAAALLLLSSSS!!!!!!!!
He is not going to the world cup, unfortunately.
you mean Clint Dempsey
He will score a lot of goals behind that microphone lol
Archie Richard Donovan the best American player and the one who scored the most goals in the MLS league was excluded because the German Coach of the U.S team is rooting for Germany. :D
lol
Shamann Nahkhchuvan Football , above all other sports, friend, is about TEAM management. I'll give you guys examples : Luis Aragones cut out Raul Gonzales of the Spanish Team; Scolari, in 2002, cut out Romario from the BRAZILIAN TEAM ; Klinsmann put Kahn on the bench and in his place he put Lehmann. It's hard to deal with EGOS. Klinsmann is a coacho who is a master of building good Teams. Perhaps Donovan - i agree with you : the guy is a terrific player - didn't fit this kind of profile. Greetings from Brazil and i am rooting for the US National.
It's crazy how much we have improved since we got our own pro league 20 years ago. I remember when I was young watching Soccer games on tv, and they would go to commercial in the middle of the game. Then just come back and hope nobody scored. And when the MLS first started they used to do the hockey style penalty kick shootouts. It was such a joke.
I'm going to have nightmares about this game until at least next world cup. I still have nightmares of that German handball on the goal line in 2002. Why didn't Bradley just pass it to the sidelines? The agony of defeat in these games is more than the joy of winning.
america was no discovered by columbus lol
America as a continent, yes.
benjaigle no it wasn't, if you don't include the asians aka native americans that dominated the continents, the australian aboriginees and even africans discovered it tens of thousands of years ago. indo-europeans discovered it thousands of years ago, and vikings discovered it before columbus also.
Obviously there were humans in America before Columbus. He was the one who discovered it and cleared out the confusion of most of the Europeans at the time, who thought that the Earth was a square. He brought America as a continent to Europe and was, therefore, called "The New World".
then by who ?
Van a ser la sorpresa del mundial.
i'm brazilian i hope that usa be champions world cup GOGOGO U.S.A I LOVE THIS COUTRY
The USA soccer popularity owes a lot to their Women team enormous success. Stars like Hope Solo or Amy Wambach are more popular than Brian McBride or Landon Donovan.
Will definitely be cheering on team USA!
No disrespect to the US but I'd be very surprised if they manage to qualify over Portugal and Germany. Just Ghana by itself is a team that they have struggled against, Portugal and Germany should win with no trouble.
I am Ghanaian by birth but I have to be objective and say that Ghana will not be lucky a third time against the U.S this time around . The Americans are so determined to beat Ghana that they have revitalized their team with foreigners with American eligibility. In their preparations towards the world cup, they have played a lot of friendlies and beaten countries like Germany, Brazil and the Netherlands, countries capable of winning it all.
On the contrary, Ghana has played very few friendlies and lost 0-1 to the Netherlands whom the U. S beat by 4-2. Also, unlike their American counterparts who have had the most camping sessions in the soccer history.(Of course they have the money to make this possible) Ghana's preparations has been anything but satisfactory. A few days of camping in Accra and a few in the Netherlands and in Florida, US can hardly be called real preparation for a tournament of the level of the World Cup.
It is undeniable the coach Jurgen Klinsman, himself one time world class player and a world cup veteran, has raised the standard of play by the US team and even hired the services of former German coach Vogt to assist him to plan different strategies to qualify from the first round. This preparation alone should make Ghana sit up and realize that this will be their toughest game yet against the Americans. In short the Americans are more prepared for the tournament the their Ghanaian counterparts and are more likely to qualify for the quarter-finals that Ghana and most probably the rest of the group G rivals.
Good luck from Sweden ;) Hope you take out Portugal hehe
Usa have a great future in Soccer,because have two half finals in 10 or more participations,is WC Classic too...
haha the attack looks formidable with altidtore and donavan! Donavan got cut! ooh should have made this later!!!
Have a nice flight home Ronaldo
Dalton Morgan Usa too
I hate when I read the comments section and I see people arguing being racist and such, this is football why can't we unite and love the sport as one?greetings from Mexico
0:55 Actually the USA appeared *not "once" but three times in the World Cup before 1990* .
Very Good Time Was That World Cup
This is sport, anything can happen
Goal against England scored by Haitian guy in '66. Highest attended and rated World Cup was in USA 1994, most tickets bought for World Cup every year are by Americans, and the popularity if soccer is rising. And also a lot of the biggest teams in the world are owned by Americans. We are coming for you down there in Brazil world!!!
Donavan & Altidor, my favorites since Fullam
And all you that doubted were wrong! We are going to the knockout stage!
Good luck USA :)
Love from The Netherlands..
Today the United States of America are already qualified for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, making a worthy tie. GO USA
the USA has to beat Ghana and the draw to Germany in a tough game. We have what it takes to draw and even beat Portugal. Hopefully everything goes like planned and we shock the world, and advance in this vey tough group we have.
One of the major shocks of this world cup would be the USA winning at least one of their group matches.
I hope they do well but I don't think they will go beyond the group is too tough
Soccer is getting popular in USA, you shouldn't underestimate any team, nobody can know what could happen
'"strong organized defense" dude, we've never ever had that, its arguably the world's best counter attack overcoming a bad defense
I don't know about "world's best", but yeah. We gave up 35 goals in 20 World Cup games between 1990 and 2010, or 1.75 goals per game. If there's a tactical distinctive we're known for, it's a fast and effective counterattack.
we actually have an amazing counter attack, we scramble well in defense and we have a really good counter attack
