Glad the Swiss lost. That's what they get for turtling for 75 minutes and missing golden opportunities.
Only swiss defense and goalie was good , forward sucked ass =P , still i felt pity wen they missed the goal at free kick on last minute lol.

So the most entertaining match in the top 16 is Belgium vs USA?
Haha no way, man. Game has been pretty EH so far.
Belgium look a bit more threatening though.
Yeah. The game has been pretty sloppy all-around. I don't think they can afford to fall behind in the second half.
Congrats to all the Belgians, condolences to all Americans. Wonder how many will say "I never really cared for the WC anyway" =P You guys did well, though ^_^
Americans really should be so proud of how their team played, they gave it everything. Watched the game here in the UK on the BBC and Tim Howard had the most saves in a world cup game since records began in 1966 apparently. If the US can keep improving as they have in the last few years then the future looks good!
Tim Howard has done for more America than Obama has done in 6 years
I'd vote Tim Howard for President.
Well, at least the US stayed a while for the party....way better than those who never got to go at all.
Now we can all go back to not caring about soccer here in US?
I'll watch still, of course. I want to see if a Euro team will finally break the curse of not winning the WC in the Western Hemisphere.
@deeliman: Troll post?
It's not a troll post. Not liking the U.S soccer team does not make me less patriotic
Americans will now lose interest in the World Cup and be interested in football the next world cup again
Despite the loss I still feel pretty good about the future of US Soccer. We've got a number of good young players who will be ready for the next two World Cup cycles, a growing domestic league and TV Networks investing big dollars into European league and World Cup rights.

I hope you are joking because this is factually incorrect.
This World Cup has done records already in the US for games when the US isn't involved and games when they are in involved eclipsed this year's NBA Finals. Ratings still aren't in for last night's games but I can already see that breaking the record set by the last two group games. Football is slowly growing in the States and NBC's coverage of the Premier League last year has brought in steady viewers and will only continue to rise next season. The MLS is also expanding rapidly with new franchises opening up like NYC FC that is being backed by Manchester City's oil sheiks.
Americans will watch until the end just like any other country.

Still interested. Why do people say this crap?
Because when have americans in general cared about the sport? Beckham, Pele, Beckenbauer, Henry, etc tried and failed
