VaguelyTagged
Uh... unfair? :| yes ,yes,yes..USA reminded me of greece in euro 2004 :| That wasn't unfair, Spain is a good team but they became extremely arrogant and it's good to see a team that doesn't have much history (in football) defeat Spain.
I can't believe we just lost our 35 official matches going undefeated - 15 winning streak - like that... at least this is not the world cup so they can reconsiderate not jumping into the field again feeling so god damn arrogant like today. lesson learnt.
Some of the comments in the FIFA game summary are laughable. Luck luck luck... That's all it was, right guys? It wasn't the failure of Spain to finish their chances? It wasn't the US taking the opportunity to finish their chances, no matter how unorthodox the situation?
Bottom line is US won, even with the obligatory unwarranted red card... :evil:

Mate that red card wasn't unwarranted.. he axed our guy in there. clean game except for that one though. And even when a couple of Spain's attacks didn't finish in a goal just by god damn bad luck, I don't think someone can deny you put some superb defense, you had a couple of chances to score and you did it. in soccer you win by goals and you scored them. end of story.
Even the great teams can lose on any given day. Spain's still one of the best teams out there. It was nice to see them win Euro 2008 - they deserved it. Used to be big chokers, but hopefully with the Euro win that can carry them in the WC 2010.

...which the US team made sure to do.
As for that red card, I can't agree it was warranted. Axed nothing, he got all sorts of ball. The US team is notorious for receiving unwarranted red cards. I was foolish to think we'd get out of the game without one.
Yeah, spain played like crap, and USA did very good. I'm just giggling a little inside over what a humiliation this should be for Spain :P. Let's see how they do against brazil unless... no, let's just see how they do against brazil.

calm down mate is not like the world is against you.. at any rate and if you're gonna diss on the referee, there was 2 fouls against Spain in the US box that could have been easily marked as penalty kicks but the referee decided not to or he just didn't see the fouls.
that red card was as well deserved as your victory.

The US deserved this win, I completely agree there even though Spain didn't play badly today... But US lost 2 out 4 games in this tournament, they got through on a goal difference, while Spain hadn't let a single goal in until now... people have the right to act surprised, and I'm pretty sure some of them are pissed off because of the money they lost here :P
I am so happy! This pretty much hands Brazil the cup! South Africa pose a threat, but nothing my B-boys can't handle and the US out-played Spain today but it really was a fluke win.
Wow, I'm shocked, USA beat Spain, at soccer? :lol: Well I'm glad their streak is over. You should of seen Italy vs Brazil the other day, it was great. Let's see if you Americans can win again. ;)

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. ;)

I understand. I just wish people could give the US the benefit of the doubt instead of getting all sore about it. Speaks to their feelings towards the US and soccer. Hope this earned us some respect points finally ;)
