I've heard a few people say the US did really well, and well done to them

I don't get it, they set the tone of the game by fouling at any opportunity, then first tackle by Totti and a yellow came out. That must have been the most infuriating thing to see

Eventually Pope got booked after a few bad challenges, and then Rossi did the worst red card offence of the tournament, a disgrace. That said, the US had decided to go the Leeds Utd route to get a result, so next tackle they did and it was 10 against 10

Then it was 9 against 10, then the ref knows in his mind that he's sent 3 players off and if he acts again, then the game could turn into chaos

The game ended 0-0, it didn't actually mean anyone played well, it just meant that football didn't do the talking, and the headlines after the game were nothing to do with football

So to me it wasn't well done anyone

I bet the US Ghana game is a complete blood bath, and I hope the yanks disgrace themselves further
