And Brazil advances - this running commentary is pretty entertaining: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/commentary ... EDERATIONS -

Particularly entertaining are the few comments about Alves, who came in in the 81st minute, and scored the goal in the 87th. Good substitution.

Nice ending to regular time in this South Africa - Spain match...

That was one hell of a match. Going to be hard to top this afternoon but if USA wins I really don't care how it happens.

Getting close to start time...

Just tuned in, ESPN. GO USA!!!

Watching the introductions now. Which do you imagine would be more stressful, the team standing on the field in this championship, or standing on the field in the olympics? I would have to guess today is the most stress that this team has ever felt. The announcers made a good point though, in reality all the pressure is on Brazil.

This one but I would love them to have the stress of being in a World Cup Final.

GOOOOALL!!!!!!!!

Yes, quite a nice redirection...

GOOOOOAALL!!!!!! TWO TO ZIP!!!!
GO USA!!!

We could have had a third...

Half time, what a complete game by the U.S. Our offense obviously got the 2 scores, but defense has impressed me. Howard has two saves that impressed the hell out of me, but outside the box our D has been rattling Brazil very nicely. 45 minutes to history, if they keep it up on the defensive end without scoring another point, the game is ours to celebrate. Another goal or two would be most welcome though .

No 3-2 Brazil..ratfarts, although if there was instant replay it would be 4-2. 90th minute now. GO USA!

Poop.

The better team prevailed today...the contrast in how much pressure they put forward relative to us was amazing.

Once we got our second goal we sat back and let them come at us and that is not the way to beat Brazil, simple as that.

So what's the link for the EPL fantasy league with ESPN?
Oh yeah... I think USA and Mexico play this week. There sure is a lot of advertising for it.

Join the DBR League.
We can make a crazietalk league as well if you want.

Can someone please explain to me why this game is not on ESPN or FSC? I'm going to have to watch it on Telemundo and even worse in low-def. Pitiful. And I'm leaving work early so I can catch kickoff.
