U.S. Must Avoid Complacency Against Group Opponents:

Team USA started the World Cup with the most anticipated
game in recent history for the team. They tied England, 1-1 after a gift
goal from David James, the English goalkeeper. The U.S. enters their final
two group matches as the favorite in both games. The U.S. team cannot slip
up against lesser opponents. They've proven they can play with the best
teams in the world, now they must prove they belong in the argument by
defeating Slovenia and Algeria soundly.
Slovenia defeated Algeria 1-0 in their first contests. It gives the Slovenes
confidence against the Americans. Jozy Altidore, Landon Donovan and the U.S.
attack must jump on the Slovenia defense early. They will need to score
early in the game to set the tone. The health of goalkeeper Tim Howard still
might be in question, but he'll play and the U.S. defense will make an extra
effort to keep the attack away from him.
Donovan must control the midfield and continue to show how he's the best
U.S. player. Altidore needs to find the back of the net soon. A goal would
do wonders for his confidence going forward in the tournament. Clint Dempsey
will do some electrifying things when he touches the ball. He has to set up
others and get them involved in the offensive attack. The defense did a
great job against Wayne Rooney and England. They cannot let up, they'll have
to get eight players behind the ball because when there's no star power,
it's a more complete team attacking.
The U.S. gained great confidence at last year's Confederation Cup. They're
now a more complete team. It made them favorites against other teams in the
World Cup. Expect the U.S. team to play well and avoid a lazy approach to a
lesser team.
