Miracle on Grass! U.S. advances in World Cup on Landon Donovan’s last-minute goal
June 23, 2010 by William K. Wolfrum
As injury time was running out, Landon Donovan buried a goal to send the U.S. past Algeria, 1-0. With the win, the U.S. advances to the World Cup knockout round. Two thoughts:
1) I am forever sorry aboutwriting this post about Donovan.
2) As my Brazilian wife said: “Can’t you Americans do anything without making it a movie?”
I suppose not. A brilliant performance by the U.S., which goes into the knockout round confident and motivated. Just a great World Cup match.
Update: For those that would like to see Donovan’s goal. Over and over again:
