America tries to play a Belgian sport

So, I don't usually advocate trash talking but I feel as an American-Belgian that someone needs to mention the fact that Belgium played the United States soccer team a few weeks ago and the Belgians did well comparatively.

Belgium is better?
- The End Result -

It does not happen often enough that the US and Belgium go head to head at this sport so we had to seize the moment and attend this event. The game was played in Brussels, a 45 min drive from our house, on a rainy evening. We enjoyed the game none the less. Great company of 8 other friends, and lots of cheering. We sat in the Belgian section, so we had to mask our American accents with English, Scottish or Australian sounding vowels. Great fellowship! We are so glad that after a loosing streak we could win against "De Amerikanen"

That being said, please do not ask me to attend any game that involves the Belgian national team having to play Americans in American football, baseball, or horse shoes.
