Well, the last 45 minutes of the Confederations Cup sort of sucked.

Good job USA, hopefully we can build on this and not lay a giant turd when we visit Mexico in August.

Well USA, doubt you'll get close to winning an international cup like that again anytime soon

Wow, that was shockingly close...probably the first time I cheered for the U.S. in any sporting event (and last)

Hopefully the boys can turn these doubts around and continue to prove that they are worthy of winning an international cup.

I am proud of them.

Who's 'us'?

 

[BEAL]

US played great 1st half. Now can they play a complete game is the real question.

this came down to depth. Brazil made subs that really made a difference. US made subs that didn't really help.

US also had a few players out due to injuries and red card. Having Bradley in there might have helped with some of our midfield problems in the 2nd half.

Anyway, should be a good build for WC Qualifying.

Landon FINALLY convinced me that he is good. His goal was fantastic.
