The US finally has a team that can make history in the World Cup.

What a difference 32 years make – and a positive one, too!

When the US first hosted the football (soccer) World Cup in 1994, the team dropped off the competition after a hard-fought defeat against champions Brazil in the round of 16, in a vibrant match in the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California.

But this time around, the US squad is playing a much more complete game, with a solid defense and a efficient attack that has scored 6 times in two games.

The USMNY made his debut in the Cup with a dominant victory 4×1 against Paraguay, a solid squad that won Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay in the qualifiers – no small feat.

And today, they proved it was not a mirage: the US team has what it takes to go far in the competition.

Sky Sports reported:

“Having beaten Paraguay 4-1 in their opening game in Los Angeles, Mauricio Pochettino’s side produced another commanding display in Seattle to continue their strong start to the tournament and put them on the brink of reaching the round of 32.

Folarin Balogun, scorer of two goals against Paraguay, forced the opener when Australia defender Cameron Burgess turned the striker’s cut-back into his own net in the 11th minute.”

“Defender Alex Freeman added the second when VAR overturned an offside call against him after he had nodded Serginio Dest’s deflected shot over the line following a USA corner.

Head coach Tony Popovic tried to get Australia back into the game by making a triple change at half-time but they were unable to meaningfully trouble goalkeeper Matt Freese as USA put themselves in a strong position to advance to the knockouts.”
