    Because the U.S. National team is very good, thats why. Also, some teams just don't match up well with others, they may be very good or even better but still loose. This is true in any sport.

    If Brazil is the worlds' greatest soccer team, why did they lose in the FIFA World Cup '06 ??? Brazil is way too overrated, every national team has its ups and downs. Brazil is having a down moment.

    Brazil nowadays is the best National soccer team in the world regarding it's history. I believe the best National teams regarding performance are Italy,Spain and Argentina.

    True. Although football is not the most popular sport in the US, the institutions they have produce some fine players and teams that play very professionally. Although a #8 rating doesn't mean they're the 8th best in the world, the US football team is a tough match-up for any team.

    It is a good team but it is still no match for the traditional powers of soccer.

    Lies. The U.S. Italy game in the World Cup was a very competive game that the refs cheated us out of. If anyone hasn't noticed, most FIFA refs despise Americans. Anyways look for two North American teams, U.S. and Mexico, to advance out of group play at the very least next WC.

    Even if the US won the game, they still wouldn't of gone through.

    IIRC, most of the US national team right now is comprised of a lot of U19 players, at least U21. they're doing pretty well!

    From what I remember of the Italy vs United States match, it was a good game to watch. De Rossi cut McBrides cheek/nose with his elbow on purpose and got a red card for it and Italy gave the US a free own goal. The two American players that got red cards slid into Italian players with both feet and didn't make contract with the ball, for this the ref can give a red if he wises, although I think he should of just gave yellows.

    I think Italy played better than the US since they scored by themselves, not from an own goal and they had better attempts on goal throughout the match than the Americans. I don't like the Italian team though, they have a lot of skill but they are also one of the dirtiest teams in the world, along with Argentina, both are a bunch of divers

    Brazil vs United States would be a good match to watch, Brazil aren't as good as they used to be and it would be interesting to see how well the United States did against them. Another good one would be United States vs Australia, on paper the United States are rated better than Australia but I think Australia would give them a good match.

    Note that it wasn't Dida in goal, although I've read news that it was.

    That's odd, they are the correct videos though?, or was the news wrong?.

    Don't compare the giants of soccer with the others.
    The FIFA refs don't despise anyone.
