Just in case any of you missed it, USA started off their World Cup campaign with a thrilling 2-1 win over Ghana. Clint Dempsey opened the scoring in the first 30 seconds, Jozy Altidore picked up a hamstring injury 22 minutes later (still scared about the degree of that injury), Matt Besler also picked up a hamstring strain and was subbed off at halftime for John Brooks,a 21 yr old w/ only 4 previous USA caps, Ghana equalized in the 82nd min., and 4 minutes later Brooks scored his 1st international goal from a corner kick. It's a big deal not only because it's the US's first match of this WC, but because Ghana knocked us out of the 2006 & 2010 World Cups. (I'm a big soccer guy if you can't tell ).
