That was the score of the Soccer World Cup Qualifying Round Game 1 last night. In their bracket both the USA and Mexico are expected to advance. The game was in Columbus, Ohio and had a good crowd.
The game was well played and both teams had chances for goals plus there was great defensive play. The USA got their first goal near the end of the first half when on a corner kick that eventually wound up at USA's Michael Brady's feet gave him the opportunity for the score and he took it. We scored in stoppage time in the second half when Brady again scored by a long kick that the goalie just missed.
There were voodoo dolls sold in Mexico that were expected to help their team but it didn't work needless to say.
This is a good start for the USA.
I wish more of you would have watched it. There would have been new soccer fans for life no doubt indeed.
