-Johannesburg
In a shocking development the U.S.A. Soccer Team is stunning the world and Brazil, with a 2-0 lead at half time against the 5-time world champions. They aren't looking much like the team that beat the U.S.A. 3-0 earlier in the cup.
They are still out shooting, out possessing, and out skilling the Americans, but they are lacking where it counts, the score. Efficiency is something the U.S. is not lacking no more than 2 shots on goal and no less than 2 shots in the goal.
It started off with the U.S. scoring in the 10' with a little touch off of Spector’s fantastic cross, following their pattern of scoring first. Then, some 10 minutes later the U.S.A. looks a little like their opponents, with a fantastic counter off a Brazil corner, with Donovan and Davies with some beautiful passes finished off by great composure from Donovan to knock it in the net from the top of the 18.
Look for Tim Howard to continue to be a big presence with terrific positioning and saves, but watch out for the likes of Melo, Robinho, and last but not least Kaka. The U.S. must continue to play smart and create opportunities off counter attacks, because Dunga is not going to go easy. See you back in 45 minutes!
