The 2014 World Cup match between the United States and Belgium is in extra time at Salvador, Brazil.

The U.S. loses to Belgium in extra time, 2-1, ending its run at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Belgium advances to the quarterfinals to play Argentina on Saturday at 9 a.m. PDT.

The Americans strung together more chances in the final 15 minutes than they did in the previous 105. Time and again, they gain entry into the box, and it's Belgium that is clock-watching now. They missed attempts off Clint Dempsey's foot and Jermaine Jones' head in the final minutes of extra time.

With one minute left, DeAndre Yedlin makes one final run down the right side but cannot reel in a long pass. Coach Juergen Klinsmann is pleaded for more than a minute of stoppage time, but for naught.

Belgium hangs on for dear life, winning 2-1 over a never-say-die U.S.

3:28 p.m.

The U.S., with no choice to press forward, is exposed to the counter. Sure enough, Belgium's Romelu Lukaku, eating up ground with his long stride, dribbles well into the box, leaving him one-on-one with Tim Howard. As usual, Howard wins the duel with another kick-save.

The Americans gain a free kick from straightaway outside the box. They run a beautiful set piece that produces a tremendous chance by Clint Dempsey, who slips unattended past the wall. Thibaut Courtois pulls off the best save, non-Howard division, of the day.

3:23 p.m.

Midfielder Julian Green scores for the U.S. in the 107th minute to make the score 2-1 Belgium.

Green, a late sub for the U.S., makes a run into the box, controls a lovely pass from Michael Bradley and pops it in for a spectacular goal just two minutes into the second overtime frame.

The Americans have new life, and they display it with another rush up the field. Jermaine Jones gets off a shot that is wide but puts a world of worry into Belgium.

The orange curtain vs. the white wall... costa rica's playing it safe so far,
let's see if they're willing to make it a better game [to watch] in the second half.

Fuck Holland. Fuck Robben. What a diving bitch. Just like against Mexico. The final will be Germany v Argentina. I hope Arg to win but we shall see. I think it will be tough for Brazil to win with Thaigo Silva missing the game and Neymar possibly injured. Neymar should be out on a. Red anyway for charging the free kick.

As for the US, the really need to learn to posses the ball and have some touch.

End rant.

I knew Germany would win but i didnt think it would be by THAT much. Probably the weakest defense i've ever seen, especially in a semifinal game!

Now anyone who says "soccer" is boring because there's not enough scoring must not have watched that game lol
