USA did fine at the Summer Games. 40 Gold medals tied for 10th most in any summer Olympics by an USA team (40 golds were won in 1952 as well). The 2012 and 2016 teams each won 46. The record number of Gold medals in a single games is 83 from 1984. Overall, 126 medals were earned by USA. Numerically that is the most for any single Summer Games.

There are different types of matches you should watch, and classics are certainly one of those. There are different reasons too for watching classic games: 🔸 you develop analyzing abilities - game is based on different patterns and formations and is harder to put players and teams in already known tactical categories 🔸 you develop objectivity - you watch players and teams first hand, thus checking for yourself how justified is reputation they have 🔸 you gain new tactical ideas (sometimes new means only something not used for a while) for implementing in match And my favorite reason of them all - because you're just interested. England - Ireland, WC 1990, 1-1
