Re: How the USMNT is Guaranteed to Win the World Cup
Pretty good stuff. What is Algeria, 26 miles from Spain (or even Sardegna)? Probably a lot more than that, but it looks close on a map.

I would have gone with a more obvious statistical fact. Mexico has never beaten the US in the World Cup. Hence, being the last two teams on the list, we'd win the World Cup.

How about a Non-Euro or Non-South American team that went 3 and out in the previous World Cup has never won it the next time around. Advantage Mexico

depends how big the map is......a few years ago a team from the Ukraine showed up two days late to the Dallas Cup.....they had landed in New York and taken a bus to Dallas because "it didn't look that far on the map"......

Re: How the USMNT is Guaranteed to Win the World Cup
The key is to set your expectations really, really, really low, then any success feels like a huge win!
For the Confederations Cup I was hoping the team would score at least one goal from the run of play. For the World Cup I'm hoping that only one U.S. player gets a straight red after a tackle.
