World Cup Soccer - Team USA Wins

Dramatic Victory is Team USA’s First World Cup Win in Eight Years

 

With just three and a half minutes left in their World Cup campaign, Landon Donovan led the U.S. team to one of the most stunning turnarounds in the history of the championship tournament, scoring a goal in injury time to defeat Algeria 1-0.

 

On a lightning-quick counterattack 45 minutes into a 4-minute injury time period, Donovan propelled the U.S. into the second round.  Cheers erupted on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.  President Clinton congratulated the US players in person.

 

It was the first U.S. World Cup victory since 2002 and the first time the U.S. has won its first-round group since the inaugural World Cup 80 years ago.  The Americans next face Ghana on Saturday 1:30pm (CT) for a place in the quarterfinals.
