IMHO, Landon Donovan had the talent to be a world class player, and I don’t say that lightly. I legitimately think he could have been at that level. But this right here? This is WHY he didn’t achieve that level. He didn’t push himself beyond what was safe and comfortable.

One of the very, VERY few conspiracy theories I believe: US television conspires to ignore soccer because they can't sell 20 minutes worth of ads in every 60 minutes of broadcast. Nothing else explains their insistence on ignoring a sport that MILLIONS watch (MLS, Liga MX, etc).

@RedditCFB First goal was just a poor clearance, and totally her fault. The second was just a fluky play that went off her head and in. The third was a cross that, if she hadn’t touched, would have been a gap in by the US player. Really unfortunate, and I felt bad for her.
