It is a World Cup being held predominantly in the US, after all. Like the ad breaks, the dramatic walk outs, the kick off countdowns, the half time shows...are we really surprised? This is football for people who do not understand football in the same context as the rest of the world. You need to sculpt it to their exceptional viewpoint for them to sit up and take notice. Bring on Morocco/Portugal/Spain.
