2014 World Cup: Football or Soccer ask Americans?

Football in the United States. Not always been a big deal, right?
 
But things are changing. The 2-1 victory over Ghana attracted the biggest US television audience for a football match - 16m people.
 
The draw with Portugal smashed that record with an average of 24.7m viewers.
 
"Soccer is finally beginning to gain genuine ground on America's three heartland sports of American football, basketball and baseball," writes Ben Smith.
