I think the US could go a decent distance here, but still not sure they survive an encounter with a top side, they look a bit porous at times and better sides than Australia and Paraguay will take advantage of that.
Momentum can do a lot though.

Aus really not committing many men forward. It’s like they don’t want to lose by too much. Resting players for the first half too.
Think a lot depends on the defence. Apparently conceded in 9 in a row prior to this game and even here look slightly vulnerable.
I could see them shocking a second tier side eg Netherlands but not one of the proper big boys.
Draw is nice for them though, won't play any of the big boys until at least QF. Even then there's only one potential group winner though it's likely to be Spain.
Egypt or Belgium in the last 16 May which will be a test, but think the quarters where they’ll meet a proper test.
Ref has lost control a bit. Loads of players milking minor contact
Maybe. I don't rate Belgium at all really, had their chance and ****ed it.
Reckon the QF will definitely be Spain though if they win their group which they should. Don't see any of 3 second placed teams in that section beating them.
There's going to be some rubbish R32 games tbf looking at it.
Wasted their generation on Martinez, and now Portugal are doing the same.
Awful manager. Got a Portuguese colleague who is fuming they're sticking with him.
Why, because it hardly ever happens? TBH with the amount of ground they have to cover at this level plus the high temperatures I'm not that surprised.Ref getting cramp
Pathetic.
