THE PREDICTION

This should be a superb contest as the United States take on Australia for a place in the final. The USA have improved as the tournament has progressed after their shock loss in their opening match against France. They were too good for Spain in their quarter-final clash while Australia powered their way through as they overcame Argentina in a one-sided affair. The Australians were superb in that contest and will take plenty of confidence into this last four clash but the USA should prove to be too good for them here.
