The United States and Mexico had a dream start to a World Cup on their home soil. Canada’s first game wasn’t too bad, either. The Americans put an exclamation point on Friday’s action with a 4-1 win over Paraguay in Inglewood, California. The U.S. built a 3-0 lead by halftime and matched the biggest World Cup victory by an American squad.
