Brad Guzan keen to face the best head on

Hopefully with two decent results in the first two games we can go into the third with it all to play for. I definitely think we can make it through. We know it’s going to take three really good games from all of our players but there is no reason why it can’t happen.

Who’s to say we can’t? Time will tell. I know it will be difficult, but the way the U.S. players’ development is going, it’s getting better and better, and that’s a confident sign for us as a federation. In World Cups you need to have skill and ability, but you have to have a little bit of luck as well. I ask these questions: Are the players in the U.S. getting better? Yes. That’s important. Is the national team getting better? Yes. That’s important. Are we giving ourselves more of a chance to be successful on the international stage? Yes is the answer.
