that was a brilliant match, I was fortunate to be able to catch it on my DVR last night.
Spain had its share of opportunities which they simply couldn't finish.
Credit the USA team for reaching their potential in one match. This indeed is a great win in the history of USA soccer.
Spain had a 35 game unbeaten streak, going 32-0-3 in those matches. Yesterday they gave up the first 2 goals of the tournament.
Hopefully, with this being played in Africa the team will gain a mental edge, or at least some mental confidence for next years World Cup. Having success and getting familiar with the off the pitch surroundings, not mention building up a modest USA Fan Base in Africa, could go a long way towards getting this team ready for next year.
However, after enjoying this win, they must get refocused and be prepared for Sunday!!!
