Northern Ireland has produced world renowned players such as George Best. Even Pele himself once said that George Best was the best football player he had ever seen. Name one US player who has had such kudos? Despite the FIFA rankings, Northern Ireland's team is still better than the US team. And even so, good teams lose to lesser sides all the time. If they didn't, teams who won leagues around the world would be undefeated, wouldn't they?
England's team is better than Northern Ireland's team. Just wasn't their day. I certainly don't fancy England's chances at this or any other world cup. But they're a long way ahead of the US and the bookies will rate them accordingly.
