usavsitaly1-1

That was one helluva game. The boys and I were screaming at the television, and we all simultaneously jumped when we thought the US brought the score up to 2-1.

Before the match, The Boy told me he didn't think he would watch because it was a "no contest" game. I'm proud of the Americans. And three red cards! It was a madhouse on that field.

We were very happy about the Ghanian win, as the boys are obviously all routing wildly for any African team they can. It was an exciting evening - first with Ghana's victory, then with the US tie (which felt somewhat like a victory, given the circumstances...). Those Italians were crybabies. Even the Italian fans have to admit that was a little over the top.
