In a not so suprising turn of events the US Mens National team lost again on european soil, this time to european giants...........Sweeden? Okay, we all know Sweeden is a quality team but if the US team did'nt have the finishing skills of say...........a baby who can't even walk yet let alone kick the ball, they might have had this one in the bag. For the team to be truly succesful on the international level, they need a player who is dangerous all the time and can create their own chances. Some people say we have that in Landon Donovan but he cant do it on his own, and often struggles when he doesnt have a big forward who can hold up the ball and let him make runs off of the ball. In the end, anytime the US isnt playing in the US it is a good learning experience and will ultimately make the team better in the long haul in the qualification for, and participation in the World Cup in 2010......................And on another note, Becks went the full 90 for England yesterday and is probably in flight to LA as we speak so he can play in the "not so super classico" tonight. A full 90 at international pace and a transatlantic flight is good for a bum ankle right?
