Yes, USA's group is indeed vile and disgustingly evil BUT don't sleep on Costa Rica. While CONCACAF teams rarely have the kind of beautiful and symmetrical offense that typifies Eurotrash teams and all those damned South Americans, one thing about CONCACAF is all the teams play hard, smash-mouth defense. Nothing shuts down a high-paced offense like some brawny CONCACAF defense, and Costa Rica knows their shit in that regard (their defense stats rank similar to Brazil/Argentina or Spain/Germany)...
