The U.S. men's soccer team suffered an absolutely devestating loss today, falling to Nigeria 2-1 and failing to advance in the tournament. Michael Orozco elbowed a Nigerian player three minutes into the game, drawing a red card and leaving the U.S. playing a man down the entire match. Not making the quarterfinals is severely disappointing for a country that just can't seem to break through in the sport on the world stage. The tournament for the Americans ended, however, when the team could not hang on to a 1-0 lead against the Netherlands in its second match, allowing the tying goal in extra time. The lost point proved devastating as the club needed at least a tie against the Nigerians to advance.
By the way, Wei Yang is filthy. He never had a chance to lose the men's individual all-around gymnastics crown. The Chinese gymnasts are beyond filthy.
