Tht was better than any of our five games four years ago

and the USA are better than four of the teams we played in 2006.

Good energy levels - when was the last time we said that at a World Cup? Last 16 against Denmark in 2002? Control/possession will be markedly improved once Barry is in the side.

We created good chances, the tempo was fine -m but everything was frankly overshadowed by Greeno's rick and that has compopunded the frustration of failing to win.

But all in all, ok.
