23. we still have to win 3 games to finally put the Swedish World Cup curse to bed (men and women)

Japan next (the US nemesis in the 2011 World Cup final, a massive upset or the US would have been going foe 4 straight, not 3)

then Spain or the Netherlands

and likely France or England in the Final

if we play England in the final, I cannot say who I will be for

totally conflicted

wifey will be for Sweden, she already said so

BUT we have 2 super tough games just to get there

the current WC power rankings by some US commentator:



meaning we may have to beat the top 3 teams (according to him) left

I disagree with Japan as number one

I would go with England or Sweden

here are the official FIFA rankings pre WC
