U.S. 4, El Salvador 0

So The US won. Which isn't surprising seeing as they played the better game. So the score was higher then 2 like I said it would be.

I thought they played well but I think too many times they tried to go through a man instead of just faking them or passing. Oh and where the hell was Donovan or Dempsey when Beasley or whoever took a shot and it bounced right off the goalies hands and the ball was in perfect open space for 30 some seconds. Where was the other person who picks up the "trash"? Ugh those where pretty much the only things that really bothered me.Other then that it was a great game.

Beasley made two wonderful goals. Donovan scored on a penalty, which had to be re-kicked because of "player encroachment." Twellman made a goal off of an assist from Ching, in the second half.

The Line-up was as follows:
--------------Howard-----------
Spector---Onyewu---Parkhurst---Bornstein
Bradley----Mastroeni----Feilhaber
Donovan---------------Beasley
-----------Dempsey-------------

Twellman came on for Donovan, Ching came on for Bradley, and Simek came on for Spector in the second half.I thought Twellman and Ching are perfect together and should always be played together. "A match made in soccer heaven;" you could say. Howard looked bored in this game. Hell if I was an outsider or for El Salvador this game would tell me a lot on who I should be cheering for.


My man of the match is: Beasley, I chose him because he played wonderfully throughout the game and his two goals where spectacular.

The next game is Saturday at 4.
