USA vs. Germany
The US team just lost their semifinal match against Germany. The score was 1 – 0. But, they played well. VERY well. They put up a good fight against the German team. The German team was FAST! In the opening few minutes of the game, they seemed to be everywhere. It was amazing. One factor may have been that the they were playing on five days’ rest, while the US team was only playing on three days’ rest.

The bottom line: The US National Team showed that they are very capable and are, in fact, one of the best soccer teams in the world. Congratulations to them for putting on the best USA World Cup outing in modern soccer history. Possibly ever. They did not let naysayers’ comments dissuade them in their pursiut of the Cup. They went to the games. They played well. That’s all that anyone could ask of their team.

Peace.
