Kept saying, no screaming at the TV, for Donovan to step up and deliver. Dempsey is a battler, and he kept trying, but I had a feeling that today it had to be LD to deliver the winning goal. And after all that drama, trauma, battles by both teams, the ball was delivered on a silver platter for LD.
Hats off to Demerit. The player of the game! Wonderful defending all game long. And, I really like Fielhaber and Bradley in the midfield. Those guys have bright futures. It is true that Algeria is not an offensive juggernaut, but I was pleased with the play of our D today, Defense wins championships. Today, it won Group C.
