USA had the lead 2-1 with about 30 sec. left and a win would have guaranteed a quarterfinal appeareance after winning earlier 1-0 and this would would have been first qtfinal appearance for US in 50 years in Olympic games! but there was a damn penalty by US 20 yds from Goal with 30 secs left Netherlands shoots the kick and scores and ties the game.END.
So now there is a crucial game on Wednesday against Nigeria who beat Japan US can still solidify appearance to Qtfinal with tie or win vs. Nigeria but the US will be without Freddy Adu & another starter who drew 2 yellow cards today but Nigeria will also be without 2 of their starters
GO USA!!
