I'm glad I'm watching it in spanish, I can only imagine the sad commentary.

I watched one of the earlier matches, and it may have been the worst commentary I'd ever heard on a sporting event.

Is USA USA USA suckier this year than it was last two World Cups?

Yeah we are not good right now.

Better than Mexico though.

[Valmy]

Told you Mexico sucks Duque.

'Murica didn't even get the chance to beat them down in the Third Place game.

So you're sad because you do not get the opportunity to humiliate them in their "own turf"?     

The nice thing about playing Mexico is we always humiliate them on their "own turf"

Ask FIFA.

But I do appreciate the easy road to the World Cup every four years.

Over two hours of futbol to end up in penalty kicks, and Chile wins it.
