Exciting Summer Of Metric Football

I hope some of you have had the chance to watch some of the great soccer that has been going on this summer. I've enjoyed it, some more than others.



The Gold Cup was amazing. The United States won the Gold Cup which is basically the championship of North and Central America. A lot of the Gold Cup games were shown on Fox Soccer Channel here.



Copa America was not nice to the US, but other teams have shown some great play.
I'm watching Argentina vs. Mexico in the 2nd semi-finals as I type. The game is probably over by now, my DVR recorded this one for me.



The DVR was getting this game because I was watching USA vs. Uruguay in the round of 16 in the U-20 world cup. The US came from behind to tie the game 1-1 just minutes before regulation time. Michael Bradley scored the game winner at the start of the 2nd half of extra time. US advances to the quarter-finals!



It has been a much better summer than we had last year.
