if you lika de futbol i hope you're watching.
yesterday SA and Iraq tied.
Spain whooped on New Zealand
today Brazil and Egypt had a 7 goal thriller wit Brazil winning 4-3 on a Kaka PK (PS Real Madrid made BIG MOVES this transfer period as discussed in the other thread. wow)
right now i'm getting my live blog on as landon donovan just put US up 1-0 against italy on a ok, even though we only have 10 on the field. go US!!!!
i thnik jozy altidore and the coach's kid, michael bradly, will be the difference makers |

| Brazil got lucky today, they didn't play a good game and were able to squeeze out a victory. Hopefully the US will pull this victory. Onyewu needs to do a better job a clearing the ball if we want to have a shot at winning. |

| And.....The US sucks. I'm amazed we're ranked 14th by FIFA. We shouldn't even be in the top 50. |

certain US players need to step it up. Donovan cant do it all.
Altidore, Edu, Bradley...the list goes on. I like to add how useless beasley is to this team. |

I disagree. even if we had been even i doubt we'd have won. There's not enough fluidity in the US offense. We're getting close. I saw glimpses of dazzling ball movement, but the comment about onyewu needing to do a better job clearing is too true, even though he is a solid anchor to our D.
wednesday is another day I guess |

I agree... Italy doesn't play amazing soccer either; their name and history gives people a false sense of respect, but in the past few times the US has played them, we've either won, or given them a run for their money...
We have some key young players and I look forward to them maturing and seeing where the team goes...
As for the 14th spot on Fifa, a lot of you guys are forgetting that even teams like England, Argentina, Spain, etc., they all get knocked out in the first couple rounds of the World Cup too ;) Statistically, England ain't too much better than the US.. |

I see England kind of a joke. With so many good players, I don't know why they can't win anything. |

I think Beasley used to be pretty good. Up until he injured his knee while on loan to Manchester City I think? |

| he just knows how to run up and down the sidelines. Besides he has no physical presence either. Hes made of paper. |
