First Post

Welcome to US Will Win the World Cup and my first ever blog post. Well, many of you may ask what this blog is all about.

The women’s soccer national team has proven that they are the best team in the world. Most recently winning the 2012 London Olympics and making it to the Final in the 2011 Women’s World Cup.  Well, now it’s the men’s turn.

I decided to write this blog because like all US fans and supporters out there, I want to see the USMNT win a world cup in my lifetime.  I remember that a few years ago, I heard that the likelihood of this happening was higher than ever before because the level of play had gone up. I believed it then but now not so much. Don’t get me wrong, I believe that it’s still possible and that it will happen sometime, but certain changes NEED to happen as soon as possible so that it could happen in our lifetime.

Yes, the US has accomplished some pretty cool feats recently with winning its first ever game in the Azteca and just recently getting its 2^nd point ever in world cup qualifying in the Azteca as well.  It won in Jamaica for the first time in World Cup Qualifying and just trashed Guatemala in San Diego.

If there is something that everyone can agree on, though, is that the US needs to be more consistent. I would love to see that team that beat Spain in the 2009 Confederations Cup. A team who gave their hearts out on the pitch. A team who scored two goals against one of the best goalkeepers in the world. A team who stopped the likes of Torres, Iniesta, and Ramos. A complete team: goal scorers, defenders, and a great goalkeeper.  

Like Landon Donovan said when they won the ESPY for the Best Upset in 2009, “We look forward to the day that other teams are winning awards for upsetting us.”

I’m going to use this blog to write about what I believe needs to change and my random thoughts on anything US Soccer. I hope to come up with posts at least once a week.  Make sure to follow the blog or like our Facebook page to be updated on when new posts come out. I hope to keep everyone interested and would love to hear everyone’s opinions on any of my posts.
