So this morning I woke up again at 3am to watch a football (soccer) match. It was a special match for me to see because my home team the USA were playing the #1 ranked team in the world Spain. It was a semi-final of the Confederations Cup tournament in South Africa. It's basically a warm-up to next years world cup in South Africa. Anyway, all the writers, pundits and so called soccer know-it-alls, gave the USA absolutely no chance to beat the Spanish. The Spanish were on a world record 35 game unbeaten streak. The last time they lost was in 2006. So basically the Americans had absolutely no chance.
So I woke up at 3am like I usually do for games. I have never seen so much heart and effort being displayed in my life. The American players were absolutely brilliant. I felt so proud of them. I've always been proud of them, even when they lose. Well to make this story short USA won 2-0!!!! They played so great. So now they will play in the final on Sunday afternoon in America (3am Japan). I really hope this makes Soccer a much more covered sport in America. Sure American sports are good and all. But when you succeed in Soccer, the WORLD watches. It's the best sport on Earth! If you are interested, please watch this highlight of the match.
