Some better news…. USA soccer clinched hte gold medal today in Beijing, defeating Brazil 1-0 with a goal scored by Carli Lloyd in extra time.
According to Newser, goalkeeper Hope Solo was the star of the game. This is USA’s third gold medal since women’s soccer was added in 1996.
Truly, awesome stuff. I hope injured Amy Wambach was able to celebrate some of that much-deserved glory.









I love soccer and I loved watching this match as well. It’s great to see the USA make accpomplishments in women’s soccer at this level of compettion being is that the men are always looked down upon. Soccer isn’t dead in the US all you disbelievers…GO SOCCER GO USA and great post!
