Oh man, my heart. My heart is just racing.
The United States Mens National Team beat Iran 1-0.
THE USMNT JUST QUALIFIED FOR THE NEXT ROUND OF THE FIFA WORLD CUP!
What did we learn? WE LEARNED THE US IS ADVANCING!!
Oh man, I can’t breath.
There’s going to be a comprehensive analysis of the group stage, so I’m going to save the detailed examination for then. Because, right now, all I can muster between the excited hyperventilating, are some quick thoughts.
The US scored a wonderful team goal off a 12-pass sequence that went the full length of the field, and where 8 out of 11 of the American players touched the ball.
