Woo! Go USA!

USA LOST!!!!

The US is out of the cup but on the bright side, an African team stays in. Go Ghana!

I am really pleased with how the US played today. We are out but not defeated. That is how I see it. Slow coming out in the first half but they really played well for the second half. Well done boys. Well done!

(Previously stated)

Got the game on and will update. How exciting. May the best team win. It is SO great. They showed this US fan in the pregame or ESPN coverage and he had shaved GO USA in his chest hair. That seems a bit much but heh.

Remember, the US is a comeback team so -- It's not over, til it's over!

Score Final
US 1 Ghana 2

For running commentary and updates
-Oh man, first goal by Ghana and really early. Not good folks. Concede that it was a beauty.
-Ghana is doing well at keeping the ball and pressing on goal. In their favor.
-Ghana dominated the first half, good offense and passing play with precision.
-US needs to step up here and get their game going. They are a second half team and have been through the competition so far. They are usually sluggish at first and then get going. I hope that is the case today. Will see.
-Better start to the second half already. That ALMOST went in on that first play. Alright now!
-Penalty kick for US-O-M-G!! Donovan comes through! What a beauty!
-US doing much better in the second half. More shots on goal etc. Alright now.
-Oh that goal hurt. That really hurt. Nice one.
-Overtime - two fifteen minute rounds. Woo! Lots of football!
-A well played game on both sides and the US kept in on for the whole time. Good show by our boys. Well played!
