This match goes to the Americans. Spurs choked every time there was a minor amount of pressure on them this past season, so I expect Vert, Chadli and Moussa to do more of the same here.

Can both teams agree to have Yedlin and Januzaj matched up all game? I'd love to see those two pre-teens go at it for 90 minutes.

Got a feeling this one might go to penalties

Knowing how both these teams played in their 3 matches, I think someone or some team's heart gets broken in the closing minutes, would not be shocked if this did go to extra time which might favor the Belgium young legs more. Belgium has always found a way to win these games in the late stages, but the US also have that in them too(Unless its in the Amazon. :nonono: ).

US is very vulnerable to open matches, Belgium hasn't shown the ability to click to start matches so I like that aspect on the US's side. I am always scared if they give up a goal in the 1st 10 or so minutes but after the 10 minutes are over, they do calm themselves down somewhat. Belgium is a bit more decisive rather than going in the opening minute and look to put an onslaught.

Yah it's just not the same. Guys like him and Vieri used to be our tallismen, now it's dumb ass Balotelli deciding if we win or lose.

I think USA will get this one. Belgium has a huge potential but they are just not good at building their offense. Rely too much in their physical strenght and individual performances. USA is a better team.

2-1 final score. Not sure who wins though.

Bradley must have a huge game. He is due.

Belgium have been bad this whole tournament, the only time I enjoyed seeing them was when they were lumping long balls to Fellaini and Origi against Algeria.

Rooting for USA, but hopefully Belgium will turn up
