Jurgen Klinsmann's Thoughts on Loss to Argentina

Jurgen Klinsmann's squad will need his players such as Clint Dempsey to step up as well as Jermaine Jones, Alejandro Bedoya and Bobby Wood who can return to this game after serving a one-match suspension in the semis.

"There is of course a little bit of disappointment about the game against Argentina because it was a huge opportunity to get to the final, but Argentina that night were simply too strong for us. But we had a talk already with the players and the staff to regroup now and to give it a go in Phoenix," the Klinsman via his official Facebook page.

"At the end of the day we were too nice [against Argentina], it took us a while to get into the game physically. When you play these top teams you have got to be physically on the edge. We had too much respect, but there are a lot of good things you can take from a game like that, and we have talked about that with the players as well," he continued.

"Hopefully we can take that straight into the Colombia game, get third place and turn it around."

They will be up against a team which has recently improved its FIFA ranking up one slot at the number three spot, also fresh from its own string of victories at the Copa America only to lose to Chile 2-0 in a rainy Semifinals at Chicago's Soldier Field.

The Los Cafeteros will bank on the performances of team captain James Rodriguez Carlos Bacca, and Juan Cuadrado. Jose Pekerman's team is clearly the favorites coming into this match.

Top Scorer for Each Country

During the tournament, USA scored a total of 7 goals and had Clint Dempsey it's top scorer. Colombia on the other hand scored 6 goals and had James Rodriguez it's top scorer.
