Juergen Klinsmann quits as coach of Germany's soccer team.

Klinsmann stepping down as Germany's coachAssociated Press
FRANKFURT, Germany -- Juergen Klinsmann, who coached Germany to a third-place finish at the World Cup last week, is stepping down, the co-president of the German soccer federation said early Wednesday.
"I regret his decision, but we have to accept it," Gerhard Mayer-Vorfelder said.
The mass-circulation Bild newspaper and the Sueddeutsche Zeitung first reported in their Wednesday editions that Klinsmann wouldn't extend his contract that ended with the World Cup.
Klinsmann called German soccer federation (DFB) co-president Theo Zwanziger and national team manager Oliver Bierhoff to tell them that he would not be staying in the job, the papers reported.
DFB spokesman Harald Stenger confirmed that Klinsmann had called Zwanziger and Bierhoff but would not disclose the details of the conversation.
The newspapers said Klinsmann's assistant Joachim Loew was the likely successor.
Klinsmann's rejuvenated team went beyond expectations by finishing third, after losing to eventual champion Italy 2-0 in the semifinals.
Klinsmann, 41, had no previous coaching experience when he took over an ailing German squad two years ago.
After Germany beat Portugal 3-1 to take third place, Klinsmann said he would think about his future over the next few days and consult with his California-based family.
chances that he'll coach the US team r def. increasing and looking more like a possibiltiy.

USA is stupid if they fire there coach, its not even like anyone expected them to advance past groups, regardless of there ranking because the system is flawed
