Great game by the Algerian GK....without him the score would have been 3-0 He had carried that team this entire tournament. I am so happy for Donavan. Now, I hope he has the next 4 years kickin' ass in the Premiere, Budesliga or Primera league. |

A great ending. This US squad has been living dangerously throughout qualifying and this tournament.
First 1 spot in a group since the first cup in 1930!

Awesome goal by Donavan. Should've been a 2-0 final...jeez, the ref almost cost the USA elimination with that offsides call on the what should've been the first goal. Who cares now...time for the next opponent

Who cares now...time for the next opponent I'll say one thing: every single close call (and some hard tackles near our own box by the main ref. went the USA's way after that. The ref stayed out of most things until the ref's assistant made that call, then everything went in our favor. |

Honestly live, I thought that was offside too, it was very close but on replay he does look leveled |

The refs have taken away two goals from us so far. |

The gaff's by the ref's isn't helping soccer's popularity in the US.

That is excellent Oracle! Thanks for gracing us with your presence tonight and post more often. Don't be a stranger my friend and I don't want to hear the stupid excuse that you don't have time to post because that doesn't fly. I miss reading your views on soccer. |
