Very unusual. I wonder what the bookmakers' odds were for the USA to reach the final after losing its first two games. Did anyone become a millionaire tonight? :D

I just noticed that there will be a third place match as well. Hopefully Brazil will lose against South Africa then (although 3rd place matches often tend to be the worst of any tournament).

espana goes down without a gol!

USA 2, SPAIN 0

DOWN WITH THE MONARCHY

ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaa

bollocks

Heh, I knew you were going to say that.... proper English response to American football success.

I've never seen any English person being supportive of American (or Australian) national football teams. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I reckon it has something to do with "taking over our game" and/or the term "soccer"?

jesys christ, chrome was that pic really important to post?

They just hold a grudge for so long, you know? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England_v_United_States_(1950)

soccer is kinda a cool word though

It think its the number one reason 'soccer' struggles to find an audience in America. Futbol would work fine.

the stereotypes are true, you know.

amerikkkans really do have larger penises.

representin'.

i'm very sorry, we're out of bollocks tonight, but would you care for a bowl of cocksnot, on the house?

suck my balls Spain. seriously i can't believe this happened. they were pretty unlucky. it's pretty funny watching Onyewu just boot out any ball that comes near him, whether its necessary or not. didn't Spain have about 18 corners?

spain had like 20+ shots on goal, and USA had like 5

ha!

my local MLS team, the Dynamo, two time MLS cup champions, are on a streak of 12 matches undefeated.

ending the season in style

Spains football team deserves a public spanking. I mean that literally all players should have their shorts pulled down and be whipped by a belt. Preferably weilded by a midget.

why? they are just fucking jinxes is all. spain, as a team, has been and will always be a jinx. they are fucking doomed, cursed by the gods-- they are the futbol version of greek hell.

GOL de BRASIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fucking BEAUTIFUL!!!

holy fuck those were some crazy last minutes. all those changes at the last minuts. wtf did they think this is, basketball?



south africa did great though. nice match.

That's so true. I think they're second only to Holland in being the most underachieving team in world football. I'm as amazed as anyone that they actually won the last Euros.

So a Brazil - USA final it is then. Magical realism or what?!?!?

Even better. It's Machado de Assis vs. Faulkner.
