i'm going to be honest and say that i didn't expect a battle. the US have a strong midfielder and goalie..now a free kick for the US

donovan had a shot at it. jaysus. but failed.
edit #2: fml i may cheer for the US here just b/c i like underdogs

there are 9 year olds who would've made the save, but shit happens. i was impressed with the effort from the US side. donovan showed a lot of control.

1-1 tie, gz to the US

I don't watch it but I follow who wins what.

I can't watch soccer,you only see like 6 shots on goal the whole game.

At least in hockey, you see 60-80 shots on a goal a game.
