    As an American I’m certainly happy with the win. I really think this game should’ve been more like 4-0 not even including the bad call that cost us another obvious goal. The US has to get those shots to the back of the net and we missed a LOT of opportunities on this one. The teams we face going forward will be MUCH more difficult than Algeria and the US has to play better to keep advancing.
    I’ll take the win, though, and winning the group isn’t half bad either! :)

    Great goal? Are we watching the same goal? Looks like a tap in into an empty net to me.

      There’s more to a goal than just the finish. There’s the terrific distribution by Howard to start the break, the nice through pass down the side, the dangerous cross on the ground, and the excellent positioning by Donovan to be there to put away the rebound. Not to mention the circumstances under which this goal was scored.

    Way to not pick the US to go through. Group C winners with waht should be 2 wins. We can play World Cup soccer.
