Opinion, commentary and humour on fantasy English Premier League football, the English Premier League, Major League Soccer and international football. From people who should know... better.
While not quite the famous USA 1 - Columbia 0 from 1994, this was a good win by the USA women and showcased some spectacular goals. Special mention for Heather O'Reilly's screamer to open the match. Well worth a few minutes of your time.
i checked their was no player named escobar on the columbian team, so i do not think we will see any murders after this game.
a funny thing happened just now. i was wanting to watch the USWNT play this game live with my 8 year old son, who has been in brasil 3 years now and has a brasilian mommie. he was not interested in watching a womens match. i pleaded with him to let me watch. he was still saying that watching the american womens team has to be boring. i kept telling him about how good the team is. when he say the oreilly golosso he started paying alot of attention. then a few minutes later, theannouncers went over the all of the world cups and olypic medals for the US and then called them the brazil of the womens game. now my son was hooked. he is lucky because he gets to root for both marta and abby at the same time. i still think that the brasil mens team should be called the USA of mens soccer.
Very cool story. I got to watch the match with my daughter. It took me a while to convince her to root for white, not yellow, because "We always root for San Diego" but eventually she came around.
