Sochaux's coach asks his team to "get a result" for Charlie going into their road trip to table-leading Lyon: http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/news?slug=goal-anyresultagainstlyonwillbef&prov=goal&type=lgns Sochaux did Charlie proud-- Lyon 0:2 Sochaux. http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/report?id=271444&league=FRA.1&cc=5901 Jacques Faty (Charlie's English-speaking friend on the squad) netted the game winner. Many prop to Scotty for pulling up these links.
Absolutely awesome result for Sochaux, both as a tribute to Charlie and as tribute to the hardwork and dedication of their players.

Ha ha ! *** Get well soon Charlie, I was very surprised and sorry to learn about that. Also very sorry that a young woman lost her life...
I hope Sochaux realizes how much this win means to us in the States. HUGE! Couldn't be happier that USA and Sochaux responded so positively for Charlie.
Seeing this late, but I'll point out... That second goal was not unlike the sequence on the Donovan-Davies counterattack goal in the Brazil Confed's Cup. A nice tribute.
