To smell like Guardado is apparently the ideal.
Now, we know that El Tri is a big commercial success in the USA - but this article breaks it down into more specific categories, and it's clear that emulation is a big part of the whole marketing drive.
That said, some have already mentioned how Jurgen Klinsmann brings more glamor to team USA - does anyone think that will translate to more sponsorship deals and business partnerships?

On the morning of May 9th, 2011 U.S. Soccer released the roster for this year's 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup team in Germany.

Odd that this collection of young women transformed into a team that those same "experts" said they, "Never doubted them for a second.

In a short while, team USA plays what will be one of its most important matches - important because the trope of the USA being a dominant force in women's soccer rides on how they perform in this World Cup. The competition has seen Norway and Germany crash out, two traditional rivals of the US and in their place France and Japan have been installed as rising powers.

Predictions? Give them in the comments. This has been a low-scoring World Cup so far - 2-0 USA is my guess, and I think I'm being generous with the scoreline. To the USA, that is.
Lineups: USA - Solo; Le Peilbet, Buehler, Rampone, Krieger; Cheney, Boxx, Lloyd, O'Reilly; Rodriguez, Wambach
North Korea - Hong; Jong, Ri Un Hyang, Ho, Song; Ri Ye Gyong, Jo, Jon, Kim; Yun, Ra
I like Rapinoe's skill on the ball, but Cheney offers more of a finishing threat, so I'd guess Sundhage's move is to try to put more scoring punch into the lineup.
