Big win over top ranked Spain (15 straight wins, 35 game unbeaten streak) last week-- finals today against Brasil..... beautiful goooooooooaaal against Brazil ten mins into the first half.  USA 1 - Brasil 0

FIFA Confederations Cup is a World Cup tune-up..... roughly the equivalent of getting into the finals of the NIT Preseason in NCAA basketball....

Sweet first goal...Brazil hasn't been behind in any tournament match and hadn't given up a goal in 315 minutes of play.

My son is a goalie and he predicted that the USA goalie would win this match for the USA team.

Amazing tournament for USA! Our goalie is the best this ex player has seen in years.

Play solid defense 2nd half and "do you believe in miracles?"

Team USA enters the elite?

I'm not sure what happened, but USA did not even come out to play in the second half.  Leading 2-0, they end up losing 3-2, and really, the score should have been 4-2 when the ref missed one goal where the ball clearly entered the net.

Too bad.  Fun to watch. 

That takes care of my soccer watching for the year!

I watched the second half at the Fox & Hound on 71st and Garnett.  Nice little group of soccer fans who were all yelling "SUB, COACH, BRING IN A SUB!!!" at the bigscreen.

The first half was as good as I've seen us play; the second half showed a lack of conditioning, we were more than a step slow and didn't look like the same team.

TODAY AT 2PM.

CONCACAF Gold Cup Final against Mexico at Giants Stadium..... pregame on ESPN2 but game is on Fox Soccer channel so I guess I'll be at the Fox & Hound to watch (I'm too cheap to pay extra on my cable bill)....
