Bradley tactically outlcassed Del Bosque in a number of ways. By giving Ramos extra space the US baited Ramos into pushing forward, exposing that side of the field to counter-attack. Furthermore, by having Altidore and Davies switch positions created mismatches in Spain’s zone D, which is dangerous considering Altidore’s athleticism and Davies’ guile. This resulted in the first goal, when Pique should have been marking Altidore but instead due to the cumbersome zone Capdevilla was, who was easily turned out by the striker.
The USA have come up with a confident victory that they rightfully earned with effort, teamwork, strategy, and a little bit of luck. An upset, yes, but a fluke, no.
This Sunday, USA Brazil 2-1 a.e.t.
USA will capitalize on Brazil’s overconfidence and immaturity.

I am happy USA won but u guys have to admit that spain were playing like sh*t because this was just a small tournament and the prize money and stuff is crap and also because spain were just warming up for the world cup and not wanting to tire themselves. Spain have not been playing seriously at all in the cofenderations cup but they still won all until usa, i don’t even think italy were playing their best at all.

to gerald: excuse me but there are lot of sports that the US don’t “dominate” in ok? (tennis, cricket, rugby just to name a few) and if you actually knew anything about FOOTBALL (not soccer) then you’d know that just because you had an upset win over the “best team” doesn’t automatically make YOU the best team
