Message: [QUOTE="LoboDays, post: 4013882, member: 11080"] There’s no shortage of talent on the U.S. team. So why were they so dominated today? No one likes to hear it when I bring up UCONN’s last 10 games of the season against BE teams who couldn’t beat their Second team before going up against tough competition in the Tourney. But, the same thing happened with the U.S. Soccer Team. Their last 6 games were against teams who couldn’t score a goal if the U.S. played without a goalkeeper. Sweden had more shots on goal in the first half that the other 6 games combined. The U.S team was used to playing at that pace and being successful. They couldn’t find the next gear needed to compete. They need to find tougher competition in preparation for the important events. They should be able to handle NZ and Australia but they need to up their game in the knock out round or they won’t be around for the closing ceremonies. [/QUOTE]
