I`m just kidding. Brazil always find problems playing against USA. Last time was a aberration. IF we beat South Africa tomorrow, we will meet you again this sunday.
And we gonna defeat you again. Brazil X USA in soccer it`s just like USA X Brazil in basketball...very predictable.

PS: USA do not beat Italy, lose 3-1. USA beat Egypt...

Oh cool.  I only saw the beginning of the US vs Italy game and thought I heard that US won 3-1.  Thanks for the correction.  It's so much fun to watch really good teams compete.  Good luck against South Africa...and as you said, Go Celtics.

Two great results in a row for the U.S.

Hopefully the team can build on this success no matter what happens in the Final.

beautiful first goal!  Pure strength!

Watched the whole game in an outside covered bar with nice loud sound in 100 degree heat down in Austin Texas...The nearby long-haired smokers added to the soccer vibe....great experience...

Question:  how much does losing red-carded Bradley hurt us for next game:  1-10 10 hurts the worst?

[ederson]

US central defenders were close to perfect.

Spain looked tired , bored , confident in a bad way. Well deserved defeat.

Unbelievable mistake byt Ramos at the second goal. Funny thing is that at the same time i was talking to a friend about how lucky is Spain to have two world class defenders like Puyol and Ramos

This game ended a 35 games undefeated rum for Spain. The last was almost 3 years ago by Romania.

-- okay, back to basketball...
