The US put up a hard fight and lost to the world's premiere soccer team 4-2. Actually, the US scored first and held on for most of the game. However, against the most skillful players in the world the US just could not hang on. An own goal by the US did not help things out. A 3-2 lost would have looked a whole lot better. Ronaldinho as usual was the best player on the field.
The US better start winning some games against these better teams. A moral victory does not show up in the win and loss column. Since winning the Gold Cup the US has lost 4 straight games.
At least the team is not taking the easy road. Maybe it is better than pounding on teams like Panama.
