US v El Salvador: I Saw This

I got to go to this game on Saturday night:

This was an amazing game and well-played. There was a sizable fan base for El Salvador at the stadium.

I tried to shoot some video with the iPhone, but the wide angle lens made the players look like they were in the next county.

I did get this shot from the iPhone, which I love:

Midway Through the First Half

Definitely more fun to watch than either baseball or American football. Game was over fairly quickly and the action was crazy. The tickets were a gift from a friend and I think I’ll try to go to more Real Salt Lake games in the future.

    What a game! Jozy was TOTALLY ROBBED of that 3rd goal. :(

      Yeah, no *way* he was offside! (Or whatever caused that goal to be called back).

      Fun game, though!

    Not sure if you read Bill Simmons or not, he’s a sports writer for ESPN​.com. He has an interesting take on soccer in America with this article.

    For some reason this video has started autoplaying. It hadn’t done that before to my recollection
