US team 'Devastated' by Lack of Home Support
"For most national soccer teams, playing a tournament on home turf is a huge advantage. For the United States, it can be the opposite.
In the Gold Cup final last year, the US lost in a Houston stadium overwhelmingly packed with rival Mexico fans. The semi-final in St Louis, Missouri, was a sea of light blue for their opponents Guatemala.
There were similar scenes at the US-hosted Copa America a year earlier.
It is a huge concern for the US players under extraordinary pressure to deliver as co-hosts at this summer's World Cup"
Gee....don't tell me....Americans don't give a flying fck about soccer?
Who would have thought?
