Soccer is a cruel game, sometimes.

Despite my telling my housemate that the US would advance in the Confederations Cup when pigs fly, the US did just that.
Not only did they beat down what had been to that point a really strong Egyptian team, but Brazil clobbered Italy 3-0 to allow the US to sneak into the semis.

Now they get to play the number one team in the world, Spain.

This tournament has been an absolute trial by fire for the Yanks.

Meanwhile, keep your eye out for low flying pink objects.
