I don't follow soccer so my question is what kind of team and chance does Team USA have in the World Cup??

Finishing top 8 would be a great result

Should win or get 2nd in their group. The hope is to at least win one knockout stage game and make the round of 16. Kind of a situation where anything less than that is disappointing and anything more than that is a really pleasant surprise.

Thanks for the info.

Yep. A place in the quarters would be a very solid showing. But that’s basically best case unless this team catches lightning in a bottle somehow.

What is the soccer equivalent of the 9 beers 9 hot dogs 9 innings challenge?

If Canada can't push a goal across the line against Bosnia, they should probably scrap the soccer program.

Beer.  Just lots of beer.

Canada is terrible and it sucks that Alphonso Davies wasn't fully healthy by todays game. Hopefully he's back by their next game.

There it is. Let's see if they can squeak out a win. They probably just need 4 points out of this and the Qatar game.
