Seems like USA did not recover from the paralyzingly lightening strike about 30 seconds from close of game against Portugal, They got beaten fair and square by Belgium. Tim Howard's saves were out of the world but that pointed to sleeping midfield and non-functional offense. The saving grace was that USA did wake up in the last 10 to 15 min even found energy to create some golden chances and scored also. May the best of all the group topper teams win in the quarter finals and then beyond.
