Los Angeles' hosting of the 1984 Summer Olympics was a great opportunity for the U.S. team to take advantage of home court advantage and capture the attention of a curious American audience. Unfortunately, the adventure ended prematurely in the group stage. With an all-NASL and Major Indoor Soccer League squad made up entirely of national players, the USA beat Costa Rica, drew with Egypt and narrowly lost to Italy. The USA and Egypt finished their group with the same point total and goal difference, but it was Egypt who came through with an extra goal. St. Louis Streamers midfielder Rich Davis scored two goals at home against Costa Rica to become the tournament's top scorer for the United States.
