Editor's note: The following is a statement from MLS Commissioner Don Garber regarding the US national team's loss to Belgium and dramatic run at the 2014 World Cup.
"The World Cup has captured the hearts and minds of our country like never before, and the last few weeks reinforced that the United States is a soccer nation. As we've seen in the past, each successive World Cup adds more momentum to the sport's growth. Many of the U.S. players and several others who excited and inspired our country now return to their clubs here in MLS, and we welcome soccer fans to join us in supporting the incredible athletes who made us proud."
