I had a bit of apprehension in this match about the formation used for this game. If he wanted Cameron in there, he should have put in him at RB, Johnson at RW and left Beckerman in the middle. He would have had the extra defensive height, attacking down the right with Fabian, without giving so much away in the middle of the pitch. Cameron was damn poor this game.
We played this game tactically on the counter attack and didn't have enough speed on the wings to do it. Shame really. For all of the talk about Klinsmann wanting to make this an attack minded team, we really went defensive in this game and the entire tourney, minus the 2nd half of the Portugal game. We don't seem to want to hit the high gears until we go down and our backs are against the wall. We don't have the killer instinct. Hopefully we can develop that here in the near future.
We didn't deserve to win the game, but Howard sure as hell didn't deserve to lose. Everyone was in awe of Ochoa and his performance, but wow. What a man.
Thoroughly disappointed in Bradley. With much expectation comes much responsibility. He might have played the 4 worst games of his USMNT career at this WC. Shame really.
All that being said, we should be proud. Klinsmann's decision to go with youth paid off big time. Brooks, Yedlin, and Green all paid off in spades. We did better than most thought we could and that says something I suppose.
