ABSOLUTELY! I want the US to go into each match thinking "we're going to score more goals than the other team" and not "we're going to defend and lay back until a chance comes to us"......you have to make your own chances.

The problem with going for the kill in this game is that Mexico doesn't like us.....their goalie tried to tackle Eddie Johnson a few years back, Marquez tried to spike the goalie, and you just don't want the game to get out of hand
