USA Team Will Get $20 Million if Win World Cup 2010

USA footbal (they call it soccer)’s team will get $895,000 each (roughly, IDR 8 billion) , the biggest bonus in world cup history,  if they win this 2010 World Cup.
Sporting Intelligence reports,

The USA’s World Cup squad will share a bonus pot of more than $20m (£13.8m) if they defy the odds to win the tournament in South Africa this summer. The potential payout is the most lucrative confirmed bonus scheme in the history of the tournament and could net the 23 players involved $895,000 (£617,332) each should they triumph.

The cash on offer dwarfs the incentives being offered to players from other leading nations. The World Cup favourites Spain will reportedly earn “only” £500,000 each if Fernando Torres, Cesc Fabregas and team-mates win, while the Brazilian team would net around £250,000 per man for landing their nation a sixth World Cup victory.

Certainly, USA team need a sort of miracle to get that whopping bonus. Miracle does happen in Euro Football Championship where unseeded team won. Greece won Euro 2004. While Denmark won the cup in 1992. But I never happen in Football World Cup. So, if USA win this time around, it will certainly breaks many records apart from the huge bonus itself.
