US U20 Team Gets Big Win over Cameroon

[agconrad]

U20 USA Men's Team is in the group stage in Egypt right now and failed to impress the other day with a 0-3 loss to a tough German team. However today, they rebounded with a very good performance against Cameroon with the final score being 4-1.

This win propels the US from last in their group to second on goal differential and sparks hope that they might have a chance of getting into the second stage. Helping these chances were Korea stealing a point from Germany in a 1-1 draw today.

The US play Korea on Friday in their last game of the group stage and are in a must win/draw situation to ensure advancement.

Just got back from a bar watching the match over some "lunch."

Nice effort for the young yanks. I've been a big fan of Brek Shea for a few years now, watching him play very well against grown men in MLS and I think today he is showing how much of an impact that experience has had on him. He's a men amongst boys out there.......controls the ball, makes great runs, holds the ball well, draws fouls, etc.

South Korea will be a tricky contest....as they are known for their constant pressuer, something Americans aren't good at handling.
