That was a sick FK. Pulling for Venezuela since a Uruguay/Venezuela game will have more wide open play.
I missed the match, but I can't believe just how many games have gone to extra time and even PK's this tourney. Amazing.
I get the feeling Bradley is watching this game thinking we should implement the Paraguayan strategy for the next WC.
They're great at it, like Princeton's basketball team is with their style. Hell, we outplayed them pretty much all game in that friendly, but that kinda got a cheap goal and clamped down. Wow, combined population of the two CA finalists is about 10 million.
Having ties to Uruguay, I'm interested to see what shakes out over the next 8 years for them. Their team is above average now, and has some young talent (Cavani, Suarez) plus the U-17 team has a defense that shut everyone down in the U-17 WC. Very interesting.
