What a ride I'm still writing my check tomorrow for the video (available from Dallas cup)...thanks to all the players and staff of the U-17's for the great ride---we're with you, guys! Damn, I really thought this was their night...
Re: What a ride Hard to win when you spot the other team two goals. Anyone there comment on the officiating? I had the hangover from hell today and couldn't make it.
Re: What a ride What's the story with this video? Does it cover the entire tournament or focus upon the U-17s? I found no information relating to the video on the Dallas Cup website.
Today is Easter and I saw the savior of American soccer. Call me one of the converted. Although the baby Nats lost, Freddy Adu is unbelievable. His speed, quickness, vision and touch is heavenly. Tigres seem to focus their defense around him. As for the game, there were some breakdowns defensively. It is tough to be too upset when you consider, they were playing against a team that has older players. I think we found a replacement for Cobi Jones. No. 15 is extremely fast and has some real talent, but needs to develop some finishing skills. The stadium was completely full. And to top it all off, everyone seems to know who Adu is. I heard a couple of little kids tell Freddy that he is the greatest.
After watching the match tonight, Spector should be ashamed. His absence totally confused the defense and Ellinger didn't help at all with some of the tactics. #6 (Chris Something-or-other) was a liability in the back and seemed lost (taken off at halftime already down 2-0). Fun game to watch though - this is a special team!
