It's always encouraging when you field a bad team and win on the road. It took some luck —
Cornell Glenn hitting the crossbar, Ricardo Clark turning into Steven Gerrard for a split second
— but the United States beating Trinidad and Tobago 1-0, is a result the Americans probably had
to get.
But let me reiterate, this team Bob Bradley selected was bad.
David Beckham was Castrol's ambassador in the last World Cup .Cristiano Ronaldo is the chosen
one for World Cup 2010 .However Portugal have their backs to the wall and are staring at a possible
elimination from the proceedings.Castrol will be seriously thinking of plan B.
Plan B might have been Messi - but just now that's not looking like such a great idea either.

experiences.

For those who witnessed this game I don't need to say any more. For those who didn't, oh you missed
a good one. We all know the history between these two teams. Epic games of monumental proportion.
And Saturdays game lived up to any and all expectations.
It was a classic battle of speed and agility vs control and power.
