Nope I dvrd it. I'd also like to see a reaction shot of the Slovenians as they learned we scored.

Yes. Now THAT would be interesting.

We could play Germany Serbia or Ghana.. just depends.. If Germany wins their match and Serbia loses or draws.. we could be play Ghana.. If Serbia wins and Germany wins we will play Serbia.. If Ghana wins/draws with Germany and serbia loses then Ghana wins the group and we play Germany. If Ghana and Serbia both win we play Serbia. I might be missing one possibility but thats the jist of it

What has kind of gone unnoticed here is Howard's distribution on the goal. What a throw!!!

He is undoubtedly one of the top 3 keepers in the tourney

He is making his way to TOP 3 in the World..

If Ghana or Germany win that game (it doesn't end in a draw) and Australia beats Serbia, we will play Australia.

Nobody really noticed because they cut away from it.

"I'm tak'n all the power back.....jus' hold on..."

USA vs Algeria World Cup Match Could Set New Internet Traffic Record

The dramatic ending to the World Cup match between the USA and Algeria could set a new record for Internet traffic.

We’ve been watching Akamai’s Net Usage Index, which tracks visitors per minute on more than 100 of the major news sites in Akamai’s network. In the minutes following Landon Donovan’s game winning goal in the 91st minute of action (which sent the U.S. to the round of 16), traffic spiked to 11.2 million visitors per minute, which moves the event past the 2008 presidential election as the second highest traffic spike of all-time.

Today’s number was also likely pushed significantly higher because England and Slovenia were also playing a suspenseful World Cup match at the same time. The plethora of World Cup breaking news briefly knocked Yahoo Sports offline and also caused issues at Twitter –- though the latter has been somewhat of a regular occurrence during the World Cup (on a related note, tweets containing “USA” spiked to 6% of total tweet volume).

The overall traffic record was set earlier this month during the first day of World Cup action, where traffic exceeded 12 million visitors per minute. We’ll wait and see what the final numbers are from Akamai, but for the moment, it looks like Donovan’s goal will go down in Internet history at least as a solid number two.

They made several references to Howard's outlets previous. The one that garnered the goal, I'd guess the were consumed with more pressing matters.

Wait......hold the **** up...


Germany didn't win?

now that would be ideal... seriously. Australia sucks! i would be overly ecstatic if this happens

I tried explaining to somebody on Facebook who said that this was only big because we don't have a huge soccer history that, had Brazil been in the same situation as us and done the same thing, it would easily have been one of the best moments in Brazilian soccer history.

Nice to see the U.S. and the World interested in Soccer.

Imagine if we could somehow make the final 4, how much money US soccer would get. It would only help.

The US doesn't give a $#it.

There are like 12 of us in this thread...
