Ball control: Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz show off their enviable football skills on the set of their new movie Knight and Day
With footie skills like these the American team should of called on the talents of Hollywood actors Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz for last weekend's game.
In a YouTube video that is burning up the internet Cruise and Diaz show off an impressive array of moves and some very firm ball control.
The two actors, who shot the video during a break from filming their upcoming action thriller Knight and Day, are shown kicking the ball around between each other before showcasing some moves that would make Cruise's good pal, David Beckham proud.
Cruise is seen balancing the ball on one foot before flicking it onto his back, flipping it forward and bouncing it on his knees before kicking it to Diaz.
Not to be outdone, the actress displays her World Cup worthy moves - catching the ball on her chest, balancing it on one foot, flicking it over her head and balancing it on her back before kicking it back to Cruise.

Action shot: Diaz is caught mid back kick to Cruise, but when it comes to the actors' footie skills is it all a case of too good to be true?
But it turns out that Landon Donovan need not worry too soon about being replaced on the squad - Diaz revealed that the soccer skills were all courtesy of the wonders of modern technology, namely CGI.

'It was choreographed,' Diaz said. 'We had to act like there was a ball in between us - that we were playing around with and then we had to sell that and then they put the ball in afterwards.'
The end result is pretty impressive - so impressive in fact that even Cruise's close friend, David Beckham was fooled!
Cruise revealed: 'I showed it to Beckham. All of his mates - they were all over there and I just kind of threw it on, and I was like, "Yeah I play a little football." I put it on, they were like, "WHAT!" They're looking at it, " What! What! Come on!" I went through it quickly and I was like, "What do you think?"'
If you want to enjoy Cruise and Diaz's more obvious acting skills you can check out Knight and Day when it's released in the UK on July 2nd.
