No and from the live analyis blogs I have seen they do not agree either.... Originally Posted by mjw11 reading on twitter, most seem to think it was the right call but a call that is not always made....do you agree?
Notre Dame only had one Rudy but Nebraska gets a new crop of Rudys every season
I like your nickname for Klinsy....

goal usa....2-1...about a minute of stoppage time before half.
Bradley to Johnson to Gomez.....USA Goal in minute 44.... Beautiful pass by Bradley opened Brazil up and a wonderful run by Johnson...two young stars to build a team around.... Edu and Jones need to be pulled....neither have looked worth a hoot....Gooch has struggled too...
Normally if his arm is not extended (i.e. he is not trying to stop it on purpose) they don't normally call that.... Originally Posted by mjw11 saw a replay....so if it hits a guys elbow and its a complete accident that = handball pk? thats just dumb....shouldnt of called that

if this happened to brasilia's defender, I wouldn't have given the USA a PK opportunity either.
Great run by Johnson and Bradley...probably the best two Americans on the field in the first half....Churndaolo and Torres looked good too....as did Howard...
World Class pass by Bradley indeed....man he and Johnson with good first half's.... USA struggling though as a whole....
Goodson, Boyd and Dempsey may be coming in for Gooch, Torres/Donovan and Gomez?
My opinion Klinsy needs to move Bradley up higher and drop Edu back.....Edu is struggling in a forward role....Braldey can play either very well....
The ref from Costa Rica has been very inconsistent at best....almost over matched for a game of this magnitude...
Johnson has looked great in half 2....Jones really bad.... Dempsey, Gomez and Bradley looking good too.... Ref not so good....
That last goal look offisde...
Beckerman on for Jones...Thank God...
ESPN just cut the game off here in S. Calif....Angels vs whom ever baseball game....arghhhh

Brazil with a 4-1 win....USA much better in half two....but this was a wake-up call after the big win over Scotland... USa deserved a second goal and one could argue perhaps a third.... Like I said jury still out on Kilnsman.... Bradley, Johnson and Gomez were the best American players on the field...all worked really hard and it showed....Cherundolo was good too.... Donovan disappeared and was disappointing....Edu and Jones were awful and Torres never seemed to get into the flow....
