@StanUsmnt Paraguy was in the same pot with Quatar!

Remember when all of you guys told me to be deathly afraid of Paraguay and Australia? Poch has this team peaking at the right time. So I guess he’s a solid coach after all?

@cbwritescopy That's what you said 1994 as well!

The United States will be the best soccer team in the world in 8 years Every kid in the states is watching the World Cup and picking up a soccer ball after this tournament

@kylamb8 All depends on how tough the road is to go deep

I don't know what the chances are of the U.S. making a deep run in this World Cup, but I do know this is clearly a different USA team than we've seen. They're skilled, they're cohesive, they play with purpose. They won't be an easy out.

@Kahneman1875973 @JayHrndz2 Yes at home! Away they suck!

@JayHrndz2 Paraguay beat 🇧🇷 and 🇦🇷 in qualifying.

Funny how all of a sudden teams like Paraguay and Australia aren’t good after they lose to the US

@danielren123 @JayHrndz2 No , they were in drawing pot 1 together with the other hosts and the top nations, which is why they don't have any big teams in their group. They were supposed to win the group!

@JayHrndz2 The whole narrative before the World Cup was how USA was gonna finish last now it’s the other teams aren’t good

@FootballSpot__ @JayHrndz2 Paraguy is a home team, the had only one away win in the entire qualifying stage!

@JayHrndz2 Same Australia that got hyped for beating Turkey and same Paraguay that beat Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, and barely conceded goals in WCQ. They’re not bad teams, we made them look bad.

@heyitsmarcosv How would czech and New Zealand possible qualify lol

Uruguay and Ghana are not easy teams at all. Could easily lose those.

@liabinkin US was heavy farorites both games

“USA is only winning because they have an easy group.” I don’t know about you, but I think that argument is a bit unfair. Before the tournament, when the U.S. was set to play Paraguay, a lot of people were saying they would struggle because Paraguay are defensively solid and don't give teams much room to score. Then, heading into the Australia match, I kept hearing that Australia would make life difficult for the United States. To be fair, there were a few moments toward the end where the U.S. looked a little shaky, but they still kept a clean sheet, and scored two goals. In fact, out of all three host nations, many people argued before the World Cup started that the United States had the toughest group. And if we've learned anything from the first week of this tournament, it's that there really is no such thing as an "easy group." Even some of the teams considered favorites to win the World Cup have found themselves struggling against opponents that many expected them to beat comfortably. That just proves that every game requires you to be 100% focused and find a way to get the job done. I'm not saying the U.S. are the best team in the world. They still have a long way to go and plenty of areas to improve. But you have to give this team credit. They've won their first two matches and have played some entertaining football. They have done exactly what good teams are supposed to do. You can only beat who's in front of you, and so far, the United States have done just that.

@realwickedbrew @EverythingRebs They only won one game away in the qualifying, they are a home team and suck when they don't play home.

Paraguay had a great qualifying campaign, beating most of the South American heavyweights once. Australia lost 1 match in their 16 match World Cup qualifying campaign. Are they good? Sure. Are they elite? Absolutely not. Is the US good. Yes. Are they great? Maybe. Are they elite? 🤷‍♂️

I need the soccer fans to help me out here Is this USA team really good, or is our group easy compared to other groups? (Or maybe both?) Regardless, these first two games have been fun 🇺🇸

@BenMikell_FW @EverythingRebs They were favorite to win, it was a normal result

USA beating Australia 2-0 is a very good result. If this team makes a good run (At least to the last 4 in Knockout rounds), I’ll call it a successful World Cup. BTW, 6 goals so far is tied for the most we’ve ever scored in a World Cup. (Broke a single-match record with 4 in first game)

@vrsaljak They win the world cup by beating Paraguay and Australia?

america could actually win the world cup (if they keep paying off the refs like they did today)

@OverEHill France

Serious question for knowledgeable soccer fans. Is there any country you have seen play so far in the World Cup that you think no way the US team could hang with?

@Asensiazo Non of the players would make it in to tge starting 11 in a big team!

The USMNT will scalp a big team in this World Cup, mark my words

@YucciMane Only of they keep playing against teams like Australia and Paraguay

Argentina and maybe Germany are the only two teams we've seen with a cohesive style like this

@FriaR_15 @BallGurl908 Why? Just telling you they did what they had to do!

@mkoawnt @BallGurl908 Learn how to read

@teepee4m @BallGurl908 Who beats who ain't matter.

@BallGurl908 They are not powerhouses but no pushovers either. Paraguay actually beat both Argentina and Brazil recently

@FriaR_15 @BallGurl908 They were favorites in both games

@BallGurl908 Australia/Paraguay are not in the England type category but they aren’t in the Qatar type category either. Not easy games and USA has looked very dominant.

@SwiftYouTube_ Why?

I don’t watch soccer. But team USA looks very very good at this sport

@RealSkipBayless Lol

Once again, Team USA looking like a legit World Cup contender, even without Pulisic.

@fitzmagic13 The US won 2 games as favorites. That shows you how good the group is!

Is USA in the worst group of all time or are we a damn juggernaut?
