as with all top level soccer it was continual dives and players writhing in agony from slight taps or bumps, only to sprint at full speed minutes later

haha

This is exactly the reason why I can not get into this "sport". Nothing but liars and cheats. If you are caught faking injury it should be automatic expulsion from the game.

Solid yeah, but 10 it ain't hard to win with 10 USA player on the USA side of the pitch....
Still, terrific match of Onyewu and co.

Have to agree, USA's defence was basically 11 behind the ball (9 to be exact actually), so it's not surprising Spain found it difficult to score, any team would. But Spain were cocky and frankly, played quite badly. Ref was utter shite too.

Yo I saw this game, it was EPIC.

Everyone in my living room was shocked and excited at the same time. We are spanish, but damn how the hell usa managed to beat spain I'll never know.

Spain was waiting for the US to choke on the big stage like they always seem to do and as much as i hate to say it, they were a bit sloppy and overconfident at the same time so, spain got the result they deserved. besides this whole thread would be pointless if Spain did show even half the heart and effort + work rate that the US did

on an unrelated note, too bad Busacca wont be the ref for the championship game. Massimo usually calls a pretty even game

I'm an SK fan but they just lost to KIA.

I'm an SK fan but they just lost to KIA.

Really? I saw them playing extra innings while cheering for SK, I'm a fan of the Giants though, but missed the last inning because got tired of watching 2 days of extra innings.

I DOUBT they will beat brazil. Seriously.

 

[Raven Darkheart]

hmmmm
Just like how people doubted the US vs Spain?

as long as they dont play with nerves and play the way that they know how to, they will give brazil a run for their money. brazil's back four can be exposed on the counter. if the boys play well and lose then i have no complaints, if they choke? its gonna be a long night

 

[triassic911]

Raven, you proved me wrong. USA vs Brazil is going on right now and USA is winning 2-nil!!!!

 

[ZER∅]

USA USA USA


In all seriousness this has been a long time coming for the US national team. Unless i'm mistaken this is our first major cup victory; should of won one by now but hey, better late than never! We have had a quality team for some time now and been in contention in lots of major tournaments and beaten teams that it was generally accepted that we had no right even being on the same pitch with. This is big step for us and maybe, finally, we will get some respect from the rest of the world.

 

[raulpica]

Woah. Never thought I would see USA winning in Soccer.

Italy SUCKED this time. Oh well, not a surprise, with that formation.

 

[triassic911]

Ok so brazil scored 1 goal at :58 in the 2nd half.... Hopefully USA will still be victorious!

 

[manaphy4ever]

[ZER∅]

spoke too soon :x

 

[Satangel]

Oooooooooh, 2-2, will Brazil stay the recordholder of total winnings of the Confederation Cup?

 

[dice]

usa 2 - 3 brazil

 

[jaxxster]

Haha obviously USA wouldnt have won this, their inexperience has completly shown this 2nd half. Brazil have completly hammered them!

 

[triassic911]

Damn..... I can't believe it!!!! USA is losing.... Oh well, I mean it IS Brazil after all. For USA to get 2 goals on them is a feat on its own.
