    Their crosses are so much better but it is easy when you are all by yourself.

    So much has been made about not giving up anything in group play but every goal has been a defensive lapse, especially the last two.

    Left CB drifted in too far to the middle and didn’t turn his head looking for a later runner.

    I think the biggest surprise is finding out we have a set piece coach.

    And what an opportunity wasted for the US in a gift of a group. Gags one away against Wales. Plays good defense against England but can’t score. Now playing Netherlands instead of Senegal.

    Nah, we are what are record was.
    We didn't do those things in group play because we aren't that good.
