Here today... Ghana tomorrow.

An unfortunate end to an improbable run. The United States soccer team lost this evening to the Black Stars of Ghana.

It was a truly heartbreaking loss. The game was tied at 1-1- at the end of regulation. Ghana scored their second goal during overtime. The US was clearly exhausted... 120 minutes had taken it's toll on the Yanks, and that was how the cookie crumbled.
Although we didn't advance. I think that the Stars and Stripes have cemented their presence in the world of Soccer.
It is widely known that the U.S has never fully embraced to sport of professional soccer, but this World Cup run had America on the edge of their seats. Now hopefully we will stay there.
