Actually the US national soccer team has already won the World Cup twice:

I don't much know about the general popularity of soccer in USA, so I can't really contribute to the thread topic, but there are two things that shouldn't be ignored imo:
The women's US national soccer team is one of the world's best and most successful throughout the last two decades, the male national soccer team is better than their reputation (which they proved in last year's Confederation's Cup).
