The funny thing about the Sweden vs Trinadad game was shaka Hislop the keeper wasn't even going to play but the 1st choice keeper injured himself just before kickoff. Lovely result for England as now if we beat TnT this thursday we qualify
As for the USA team being an up and coming team and to watch out for them in the future? this is what they said when USA held the world cup in 94. It wont even happen unless Soccer becomes a higher priority sport over there. Sure people play it, but it really is not "the only sport that matters" like so many other countries in the world. When i played soccer their for USF most of the local players had fundemental problems with a core understanding of the game. The coaches were simply not good enough. Strange really as the USA has the most people playing the game in the world :P
