Opinion The 10 Worst Losses in USA Sports History

#10 – U.S. Women in the 2011 World Cup Final

Why it was bad: The U.S. was a heavy favorite against Japan and twice had a lead late in the match before giving up an equalizer each time. Then, in penalty kicks, the U.S. could only convert one of four attempts and lost.

Why it was really bad: America, and the world, lost out on the chance to see how this kid would celebrate a World Cup title:

#9 – U.S. Men in the 1994 World Cup


Why it was bad: Despite being poorly-regarded in the soccer world, the U.S. made it through group play with a respectable 1-1-1 mark on its home soil. Then in the first round of knockout play, they faced mighty Brazil. Only a goal by Bebeto 72 minutes into the match defeated the U.S. National Team.

Brazil went on to win the World Cup.

Why it was really bad: With the whole world watching, the U.S. team willingly dressed like this. Perhaps no action in history has been more detrimental to the country's image internationally than those horrific kits.

It was almost like the U.S. dressed in the ugliest outfits they could find in order to disrespect the world's game.

Video No One Died In This Filming of Girls' Hurdles. Shockingly.

Perhaps the hurdles were set a few feet too high.
