NRR: World Cup Fever!


Saturday’s USA –England ended with a 1-1 tie which was a favorable result. I am greedy though so even though we got fortunate to score the goal we did, I keep thinking about Altidore’s shot that was blocked off the inside of the post. Also, after Slovenia’s win the next day, Friday’s match-up with them is huge. The other groups have showed us some great games and a few squads look strong. Our group and our team failed to show us any spectacular but that is alright at this point of the tournament. The USA showed up, fought hard, got some great goalkeeping and got out with a point. We still have work to do to prove ourselves as a soccer nation. A win Friday can go a long way towards doing that. I can’t wait!

US got very lucky, we should have gave that gol away.
