If you watched yesterday's soccer game between Slovenia and USA, you probably watched one of the best games of the tournament so far. Slovenia tied with USA 2:2 and played better than the American team throughout most parts of the game and probably surprising a lot of American viewers, who watched the game at home and didn't even know, where Slovenia is. Right after the game, "slovenia map" was one of the most searched phrases on Google USA, along with "where is Slovenia" and "location Slovenia". I remember that before the match, some American netizens teased us with Where is Slovenia, but after the game, the joke became a serious matter. One thing is for sure: Much more Americans now know where Slovenia is and I hope they will remember it well. This World Cup is really the best promotion we ever had for our small country. Hats down to our guys.
