US Soccer Shocks the World


Although I am not a huge soccer fan, I was fortunate enough to see the US Men's soccer team pull of one of the biggest upsets in Soccer history.

The U.S. soccer team pulled off a major upset Thursday, beating top-ranked Spain 2-0 on goals by Jozy Altidore and Clint Dempsey.

The victory sends the Americans to the Confederations Cup final, and snaps Spain's 15-game winning streak. Spain hadn't been beaten since a loss to Romania in November 2006. (Info provided by the AP)

The US will play the winner of South Africa, and Brazil on Sunda in the Final of the Confederation Cup.
