Watched on DVR a bit ago. An entertaining match that the US controlled from the beginning.
Only two complaints - but, at least the match was on TV, so I'm not complaining about these very loudly.
Universal Sports in SD instead of an HD feed makes it hard. Brandi Chastain gets annoying as the color announcer after a while; everything she says comes across as a 'holier than thou' statement. Granted, she hit the winning PK to win the World Cup years ago. Not sure if it is her tone of voice, word choice, or something else; but, I just get tired of statements that come across to me like she is/was so much better than today's players.
Chastain has a bit of an axe to grind as did Jphn Harkes...and it obvious both did if you know their background with the national team....better options in my opinion....

Notre Dame only had one Rudy but Nebraska gets a new crop of Rudys every season
