I'll admit I thought USA would win this game. Belgium dominated for 95% of the game, which is impressive even against a mediocre side. I think they can improve in creative areas and full back positions *COUGH COUGH DE BRUYNE*

Congrats Mr Mill...a well-deserved win. I'll be taking home nothing pride from this World Cup...Advanced from a group when very few (outside of the US) were expecting us to do so...kept things tense until the very end for Belgium. May you reach the semis :santa:

Was a good game.

Not much of a football fan, but this game kept me interested the whole way through.

Glad we won though :)

Thought I saw an American actually call it football...

Then I realised you were Belgian :lol:

problems with full backs?
at least vertonghen had a pretty nice game despite him missing a 100% chance later on

It is what it is.

And if I'm not mistaken, the word 'soccer' was coined by the English...

and the real horrible truth when they actually reflect on their progress.

beat a terrible Ghana team who were at sixes and sevens with each other
drew against the worst Portugal team in modern history with a star that's half injured
lost against Germany (first decent team they played)
lost against Belgium (second decent team they played)

didn't really achieve anything at all. played awful football and look to have regressed over the past few years. A nice sour thought to take home with you Americans ;)
