USA have made it to the World Cup 9 times, more than any other non-European or Latin American nation (which only leaves Canada, parts of the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, and Oceania :/) They got 3rd in 1930, lost in the first round in 1934, 1950, 1990, 1998, and 2006, and made top 16 in 1994 (hosts) and most recently 2010, and got to the top 8 in 2002, notably making it further than teams like Argentina, France, Portugal(who USA beat), rivals Mexico, and Italy. Under Jurgen Klinsmann they've had mostly good form and a good Qualifying Campaign plus a victory in the 2013 Gold Cup, but despite this they aren't favored to make it out of a group that contains Germany, Portugal, and Ghana, some of the teams USA has encountered in recent World Cups and revenge will be on the minds of the USA but also their rivals (Portugal against USA and Germany, Ghana against Germany, etc.)

They beat ENGLAND in 1950..... That was US's biggest triumph. They reached the semifinals in 1950.. Then the US didnt qualify for a WC until 1990 after that. In 1998, the US lost all of its matches which is considered a failure. Then in 2002, they reached the quarterfinals beating the likes of Portugal, Mexico. In 2006, they received one point for drawing against the eventual chamions Italy.
Womens: many triumphs.. Most notabily in 1999, they won the Womens World Cup on home soil. When that hot girl took off her shirt.

Well let's start with the most recent one first.
2006. Went home in the group phase. Lost to Czech 3x0, tied Italy 1x1 and lost to Angola 1x2
2002. Beat portugal 3x2, Tied Korea 1x1, and lost to Poland 1x3 but still advanced to the next round where they kicked the crap out of the mexicans 2x0. USA lost the very next round to the germans 1x0 even tho the americans played way better.
1998. Another poor showing. They lost to teams like Iran i think and didn't get past the group phase
1994 Tied the swiss, beat the colombians and lost to the romanians I think but still managed to advance to the next round where they lost to brasil 1x0 on july 4th of all days.
Hope it helps

In 1994 the U.S. lost to Brazil on a controversial call. I was there, and it was totally bogus. Score would have been tied. But anyway. Brazil deserved to win.

If I'm not mistaken, it's not even qualified through the top 16.
