In 1980 Winter Olympics one of the greatest upsets ever happened. The USA rookie hockey team beat the USSR hockey team and went on to win gold. It was deemed a miracle.

Well how about another one of them miracles. In the confederations cup semifinal game, USA soccer team has beaten the powerhouse #1 Spanish team 2-0.

They had a 35 game win streak, only one away from a record. I mean this is a miracle and I expect a movie about it in 5 years haha. Any thoughts? Just a huge upset and a big win for American soccer.

Doesn’t it just piss off the rest of the world that USA even wins at sports we don’t give a fuck about?

America make a movie for “soccer”, I’d never heard of the day.

You call it an upset the majority call it a fluke or you just caught Spain on a bad day.

No need to get defensive about it. I’m sure if they had played 100 games, Spain would have won 99 of them. But it was that 1/100 scenario which is why it is an upset and a miracle. Same with the hockey team in 1980 Winter Olympics. No reason to piss and moan so much about it... even the Americans know it was a miracle. Doesn’t mean we don’t have bragging rights so piss off.

Spain really isn’t that much of an international powerhouse.

In soccer they are. They had a 35 game win streak in that tournament and we ended it. One away from the record and we stopped it. They are a powerhouse when it comes to soccer.

Yeah was a massive upset however I think Spain showed no respect, totally underestimated USA.
