I reckon they'll up their efforts greatly against USA and will walk the game.
They were considered everyone's dark horses for a reason.

To clarify, whether they will or not is a different thing entirely.
Belgium were considered dark horses simply because they look good on paper. Take Kompany for example, the best CB in the world who is at fault for a ton of goals. And they have a useless oaf up front and not the legend from B6.
The hype reminds me of a certain team from 2006 who also looked good on paper. Plus nobody had actually seen them play (figure of speech but you get what I mean). They walked the qualifiers, so did we in 2009. They were being built up totally on paper. They have struggled while the US have played decent stuff against better teams.
This game can go either way ftr, but the US can definitely beat them.
