Confederations Cup: U.S. Surprise Top-ranked Spain
24-Jun, 2009
Missiles, shmissiles. What North Korean missiles? After getting beat by Italy (3-1) and clobbered by Brazil (3-0), the U.S. squad shocked us all today by beating #1 ranked Spain in a Confederations Cup semifinal match. Goals by Jozy Altidore (25th min) and Clint Dempsey (73rd min) led the U.S. squad to a 2-0 victory. The boys in red, white, and blue will play defending champion Brazil or host South Africa on Sunday in its first men’s final at a FIFA competition. Wow.

The Yanks are coming, the Yanks are coming! Let’s just hope the US team realizes finally that they have to play like this ALL THE TIME to be considered world class. Either way, well done.
