To recap #CopaAmerica from a purely USMNT POV:
A team that beat USMNT dirty got crushed in the quarter finals.
A team that barely if fairly beat USMNT goes to semi-finals after PKs over Brazil, who USMNT tied in a pre-tournament friendly.
In sum, gaps between top national soccer teams are small.
That fact, of course, won't stop pundits from issuing wild claims about trends, coaches, performance, and national character.
