Transcript
00:01As traditional powers, Italy were considered favorites against the United States.
00:06But tradition went out the door when the Americans bundled home the opener.
00:13But they caught the Italians slacking in the second half to solidify their advantage.
00:18The Italians were completely at sea as the Americans cruised to a 3-0 victory.
00:30So the USA march on through to the last eight.
00:35The other knuckle-wrong matchup between Korea Republic and Morocco was another chance for the North Africans to shine.
00:41Morocco were attacking in waves and they would make their own luck as a result.
00:45Only in the eighth minute, as Mama delivers the cross, chance, and Sabiri, it's in, own goal.
00:54Yasir Sabiri didn't get credited with the opener, but the second was certainly his.
00:57It took a review to give a lifeline to the Koreans and the penalty was duly converted.
01:05But it was only a consolation item as Morocco advanced to the quarters.
01:09Terence Clark, CBS Sports.
