1-0 on a nice goal actually but we have to score a second (at least), they're just putting too much pressure on.

LOL I'm listening to a British stream and it is a bit of "how bad are Spain fucking up to be losing this" haha, I'm not bitter, they are Spain.

I feel like throwing up. I almost wish Spain would just go ahead and score.

Yeah, I think whenever the US plays on an international level, we're playing against 12 guys.

We're going to miss Bradley BUT that does free up a start for Feilhaber who once again played great.

I tell you, I wasn't sold on Davies to begin with, but he has given us a lift. Jozy played pretty well, Dempsey did well, Coach Bradley has done a wise thing in subbing a midfielder for a forward and allowing Clint to move to forward it has worked well. I think the absolute star of the game besides Jozy and Clint and Tim Howard was OGUCHI ONYEWU, man he showed his true potential yesterday blocking shots, heading the ball clear, using his size but not committing fouls.

I was disappointed that Freddy Adu didn't get any run, if there is a guy who can hang on to the ball and pass cleanly and consistently it's Freddy, he's also mighty fast too. But I can't be too disappointed on account of the fact we FINALLY played up to our potential, sure we got a little lucky but the big deals are #1 Everyone on the team has that mental block that says "We're the US we can't compete" removed #2 We won this game AWAY from the US which is HUGE.

This win is something to build upon, we have to keep our momentum pushing forward, we cannot allow Brazil to slam us the way they did before. We need to play smart, we need to play fast, and we need to try and score...seems to me most teams attack Brazil the way opponents used to attack a Prime Mike Tyson, they try and play it safe or just go through the motions because something tells the players "If we don't score, then we won't piss them off, and they in turn won't run the score up on us".....huge win, but we have to build on it
