With their victory over Ghana in the first round of the World Cup, the United States men’s soccer team is just one game shy of equaling the two wins Cubs pitcher Jeff Samardzija has so far this season.

The soccer club is on pace to win more games during the tournament than Samardzija will win this year.

In addition, the U.S. team is also expected to score more goals during the World Cup than the Cubs will score runs in the entire 2014 season.
