Just happened a short while ago in South Africa where Team USA pulled another major upset. US beat European Champion Spain 2-0 and made it to the final. They will likely face powerhouse Brazil, who is scheduled to play the host South Africa tomorrow, in the showdown.
The Confederation Cup may be a filler event and the Europeans might have played half-assed simply to fulfill their tournament obligation. Still the victory is encouraging, proving that US professional soccer is up to par with their European or even probably South American counterparts.
I hope in the World Cup US can proceed to the 2nd round at least and show to the world that US soccer is not to be taken lightly.
