Nice free kick by Dempsey but right at Buffon. We've had some moments but they've fizzled out harmlessly.

Altidore is the definition of the word disappointment lately.

And I reversed-jinxed him. Yes!

Big result! 1-nil USA.

First ever win versus the Italians. Bradley was great, Altidore was great, Spector finally had a good game; Shea, Edu, Williams with surprising performances. And of course Howard was a rock as usual.

I guess that's what it takes to beat a team like Italy.

Bradley had a fantastic match. He has really stepped up his game since the move to Italy.

I was getting very frustrated with Klinsmann for not playing Bradley. He's far better than most realize and certainly better than what you think looking at the club teams he has played for.
