th son lphicl ahe gd of l the mix after suffering a hamstring injury against ghana. through it all, they defied the odds and survived the toughest group in a tournament that has seen its fair share of tense moments. now, if the u.s. gets past belgium, wins that game on tuesday in salvador, they would move on to the quarterfinals. the last time the team got that was back in 2002. so, lester, a lot of hope still riding on this team, a lot of people expecting that they can do it. >> so much fun. natalie, thanks very much. kobe jones knows a thing or two about what the u.s. is going through at this point. he's played for the u.s. in three world cups, making more international appearances for the team than any other player. he joins us this morning. good morning. >> good morning. >> great to have you with us. we appreciate your expertise on this one. natalie said about this match, this is a tough team. ch we saw the u.s. struggle against il,inou gd number two germany last week. as you're looking at this match, what do you think the strengths but t odg.

8:18 am
that comes in, and looking at that, one of the things they have to pay attention to is when the guys come off the bench for belgium, they have always done a good job of either scoring a goal or assisting. so around that 65th, to 70th minute mark, when the changes happen, the u.s. has been to attentive. >> a lot of questions surrounding striker josie altador. if he's back with the team on tuesday, how could that usa? >> i would be surprised if he makes it back with the team having haya hamstring pull like that. if he does make it back, he does give a different aspect that the u.s. doesn't have when he's not there. he has the strength, power, the ability to play with his back to goal and hold up the ball and allow the rest of the team to get into play and that helps players like dempsey and bradley. >> we'll be looking forward to it. we know you'll be watching as well. thank you for being with us this morning. we're not done with the world cup. still to come, a soccer trivia
