So Far, So Good for Team USA

It's halftime in Portland right now and the USA leads Belize 3-1. It's actually been pretty evenly matched so far. Credit to Belize for playing their hearts out against the US, but the US has been playing well, too. Chris Wondolowski (not Wondowlowski!) already has a hat-trick! Belize has been keeping the US in check so far and even managed to score. A credit to them and the US had better not underestimate them. Belize has been playing great defense. 

Against an opponent like this, you'd expect the US to have a 5-goal lead by now, but Belize held them scoreless for the first 10 minutes. The US really started to wake up late in the half. I expect Klinsmann to stress that the US play their passing game and be more aggressive. It will be the same for Belize.

I'll see you at the end of the match where I'll have my short little analysis.
