WTF! how can they make a film about one game of 'Soccer'
This film records the most unlikely upset in World Cup history, the 1-0 United States defeat of England in the Brazilian mining city of Belo Horizonte ("Beautiful Horizon"), 300 miles north of Rio di Janeiro, on June 29, 1950.

The Scots get beaten often enough - we're not taking the blame for that one as well.

Ahead of the likes of some of the largest European powers
- version30
no
- Donzo0
But below super powers like Mexico.
Stats, shmats.
- GeorgiePorgie0
isolated? thats a strong word. Id say no, in that we get satellite Sky Sports which generally includes pay-per-view packages of the beloved British Premiere League and the European Champions League, etc. Plus there are 'Yanks' playing in your leagues.

But still, soccer isnt really popular in the US, is it
Say is it more popular than ice hockey?
- GeorgiePorgie0
nope your right it really isn't. even to say its our fourth/fifth sport is pushing it. Golf comes somewhere near it.
- version30
golf is more popular than futball in the states

we're only 11th cos we have fucking Haiti and El Slavador in our group.
Pretty embarassing actually. If we were in UEFA we'd be like 100th :/

its' still a bigger sport for women than for men over there though right?
Is your pro league any good and does it gather a lot of public interest?
I know Nike are pumping a load of money into football and I did hear that Fox was intending on broadcasting more football next year.
