Is the U.S.A Soccer Team Poised for a Run

Under new coach Jurgen Klinsmann, US soccer started slow, but now seems to be gaining traction. Led by Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey, the US team has been gaining more and more talented players. Some notable players on the US team include forward Jozy Altidore, goalkeeper Tim Howard, and midfielder Jermaine Jones. After a good performance at the 2010 World Cup, where the US advanced to the knockout rounds, they've put themselves in good position to potentially go further.

After some tough losses under former coach Bob Bradley including blowing a 2-0 lead vs. Mexico and losing to 67th ranked Panama, it's critical for the US to bounce back.
