Hey ESPN, that's for the heads up idiots. I was watching ESPN2 for about 15 minutes before I realized Poker wasn't going off the air despite the listings indicating otherwise. I was gonna DVR the beginning and go check out some old cars at LU. Good thing I changed my mind.

Go USA.

[LUconn]

1-0!!!

[sweetnahmah1]

HUUUUUUUGGEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ToTheLeft]

So close to 2-0... wow. US playing REALLY well.

[LUconn]

I can't beleive Davies screwed that one up. He had everyone beat. It's funny, I had a post written out about how crappy they were playing and were on defense too much and then I had edit it to 1-0

[LUconn]

Nice card there. That was a little blatant. I'm surprise he argued it.

[Kolzilla41]

The US has come out 180 degrees different than the last time they played Brazil.

[LUconn]

I just keep watching the clock. IF the US can hold on to this lead, I have no doubt FIFA will make sure there is more than enough stoppage time for their love child, Brazil.


GOOOOOAAAAAAAL!!!!

[LUconn]

that was the best goal I have seen all tournament!

[sweetnahmah1]

UNREAL!!! This is great, just great.

[ToTheLeft]

Amazing run. Amazing, amazing run. Took advantage of Brazil's weakness, and ran the counter attack perfectly.

[LUconn]

LOL, nice save Santos. Dude just tripped out of bounds.

[thepostman]

I don't watch much soccer...but this is unreal...I can't believe the US is playing well in a match that matters

[Kolzilla41]

If this can carry over until the WC, the US might be able to contend.

[sweetnahmah1]

could charlie davies blow any more fast break opportunites? come on slow yourself down man

[Kolzilla41]

Very very good first half. The US needs to stay out of the trap by staying back on D. One more goal for them should seal it.

[Kolzilla41]

That was way too easy. D was caught flat footed.

[LUconn]

Seriously, are they resting on their laurels? Awful D.

[LUconn]

What is going on?! Where's the attack? This entire half has been in the US's box.

[sweetnahmah1]

wow, that was a goal. luckily the ref couldn't see it

[Th3rd]

US just got some huge help from the refs, ball was in on the replay. lets see if the US can hold off Brazil for another 30

[ToTheLeft]

wow, that was a goal. luckily the ref couldn't see it

It was closer than that one angle suggests. The whole ball has to cross the whole line. It was really close, but it probably was just over.

[sweetnahmah1]

yeah, well if howard wasnt standing in the goal. he wouldve got it before it got that far. but o well. gotta score another to put that to rest

[Th3rd]

2 good shots by the US, hope to keep up the offense and add another to put this game away

[LUconn]

Howard cannot do this for another 20+ minutes! Get possession of the ball they keep just clearing it.
