Well, they hung tough for sixty minutes before Argentina wore down the United States and ran up the score in the late going. And a guy who has just one full year of professional experience under his belt absolutely stuffed one of the best young attacking players in the entire world. I'm talking about Jonathan Bornstein repeatedly coming up big against Lionel Messi, including an absolute beauty around the 65th minute as the Argentine tried to break in through the penalty area. I'm not usually one to get delusions of European club soccer based on a good game here or there, but Bornstein just jumped to the head of the line of U.S. players to move overseas. If you can stop Messi, teams around the world are going to notice.
