Former France boss Domenech tips USA for World Cup quarters

Raymond Domenech suggests the USA could make it to the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup.

The former France manager is a fan of the US side and believes they are good enough to get to the final eight in Brazil next summer.

"I've always found them to be well organized at the World Cup," Domenech said in a panel discussion with the Associated Press.

"Their matches are generally tight. I would have liked them to beat the Italians in 2006, that would have helped me out."

The USA finished on top of the CONCACAF qualifying table and will enter the World Cup as the 13th-ranked side in the world.
