So, The U.S. Isn't Completely Terrible At Soccer After All?
 

I know next to nothing about soccer. But this seemed pretty cool for U.S. fans.

So we don't totally suck after all?

U.S. sends shockwaves across Europe with win against Spain - U.S. Soccer - ESPN Soccernet

If Bra. win over S.A. it will be a nice re-match

There is a German soccer saying:

a match is 90-minutes and the ball is round

meaning anything can happen or in NFL analogy, on any given Sunday ...

one game does not make a champion.

^^^ True
but its two games already ;)

Anything can happen, but what's happened so far is pretty damn good!

Maybe this will get us some better coverage of the next worldcup.

Schwabe is right, this definately isnt the heralding of the next World Soccer powerhouse, but it's a big day for US soccer fans.

Spain is widely considered the best team on the planet at the moment, and for the US to go out there and actually outplay them on the day is a big deal.

It's not like the US squeeked a goal then set up camp to defend the whole game, they actually controled the play, took their chances and then defended like crazy when they had to.

The problem with the US is consistency. They have a lot of talent, not the best coaching from youth, and generally have the best fitness. What they have a hard time doing is stringing successes together. Of course, this is why England always chokes, too.
