corruption is rampant
Only the head official and the keepers can take the ball out of play. Stop the game. If he had enough range to palm the ball with authority he could have caught it and at least switched play to the neutral zone.
As well as Gonzales.
Bradley, on the other hand...
We can be grateful to have such a great goalie as he.
Americans are grappling with the mixed emotions of punching their ticket to the second round of the World Cup, but losing to Germany. The 0-1 loss stings but the damage could have been worse if it weren't for Team USA's goalkeeper, Tim Howard. He was the basis of the U.S. managing to hold its own with five clutch saves to combat a disappointing offensive performance.
Not withstanding, I believe Germany was offsides at the time the ball was flighted. The goal should have been disallowed.
