: USA vs Netherlands
Good game. The U.S. didn’t win, but the Dutch are a very good team, and the U.S. looked very dangerous the entire game. The two goals they gave up weren’t bad goals. One was the result of a bit of bad luck, the other a simple defensive error. While the latter mistake is not good, it’s better to have that happen now instead of at the World Cup. The American players need to remember that against world class competition, two seconds lack of concentration will cost you a goal. It’s a good lesson. Overall, though, I was pleased with the U.S. play, though of course winning would have been better, but it might have made them overconfident. Final: 2-0 Netherlands.
