Soccer in the United States has increased in popularity and I feel they have a better team then generations past. But how far can they get?

With England World Cup Team|England, Algeria World Cup Team|Algeria and Slovenia World Cup Team|Slovenia in its World Cup Group C|group C, the United States World Cup Team|United States have a relatively easy first round, and should be able to progress to the knock-out phase, probably behind group head England. Slovenia might be a challenge, but Algeria should be manageable. If tam USA doesn't make it past the group stage, I would be really disappointed.

However, if they progress to the first knockout phase, they will either face number one or number two of group D, which will most probably be either Germany World Cup Team|Germany or Australia World Cup Team). I don't think Team USA stands a chance against Germany, and Australia will be a real challenge. Australia is ranked first in continental ranking, and on the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking, they are currently ranked 20, after being number 14 in 2009.

Effectively, my prognosis is the United States World Cup Team|United States to reach the last 16, but be eliminated in that round. Sorry folks!

I'm really scared for team USA in this World Cup. I like the draw we got in the first round, but there are no lay downs in World Cup. The team has a bunch of injuries and not a lot of experience.

If Dempsey isn't 100%, Donovan will have to play out of his mind for us to do well. I think that is possible and maybe even likely after a disappointing 2006 Cup. I hope the US doesn't focus too much on England and forget to get up for the games with Slovenia and Algeria.

Either team can beat them if they don't play well. I really hope to see them go far but I'm concerned with the injuries. I fear they may make squeak by the first round, then get bounced soon after.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
