  2. What a great photo! Congratulations USA!

    All wearing ‘googles’ to minimize the champagne – if America needed a jolt to consider soccer it got it last night.

    That new stadium at Figueroa and MLK is going to be a major bonus to USC.

  3. I had never seen anything quite like that 50 yard goal. Wonder why they don’t try that more often– perhaps because the goalie usually doesn’t wander that far off the net area.

    Japan’s performance makes one wonder how England would have fared against the Yanks. It certainly would have been a closer battle.

    • Amazing goal. Not tried more often? First, as you say, the keeper has to be off the line. Second, the shooter has to have her/his head up downfield to see the keeper off the line. Third, the reaction time to get the shot off quickly and have both the power and direction to pull it off. Fantastic goal and a fun game to watch.

  4. Great job by the girls but what a shame FIFA rigged the draw to sell more tickets & try to keep the hosts in it as long as possible. It made for an noncompetitive final.
