"We're at the point where we don't want respect. We want to win. And there's no guarantee we'll get to a final like this again, so it's disappointing."
- Landon Donovan, after the U.S.’s crushing 3-2 defeat to Brazil.
I’ve never been happier - and more disheartened - with the U.S. team. We played beautifully in the first half, and like against Spain, capitalized on all of our scoring opportunities, while denying Brazil any goals.
Conceding the goal 38 seconds into the second half was deflating to our morale, and it was all downhill from there.
