It's taken me a while to catch my breath.
Yesterday was an absolute doozy...from all perspectives. So much so that I am just now getting your favorite regular feature on SoundersFC.com to you. Yes, the Social Timeline returns for another edition, with this one focusing on the madness (absolute MADNESS) that was the USA-Portugal match in the Group Stage of the World Cup. It went down yesterday and boy did it create waves.
Taking it in from the lovely setting that is Fuel Sports Eats and Beats, I got to enjoy the festivities with 2,500 of my Seattle buddies. Let us go back and explore the day through social right this minute.
Simple stuff really.
The day had arrived. MASSIVE MATCH.
DeAndre, as you’ll find out later, was ready.
This was a cool little video done by MLS.
More fancy infographics.
Then I arrived at Fuel…and it was so full of America.
Deuce started. Duh. Deuce scored. Duh.
EYE SPY CLINT DEMPSEY!!!
Look at these two good looking giants men!
I was pretty excited, you guys.
Officially GO TIME!
So this was a bit of a bummer early on…
And then it was halftime. Oh how little we knew.
I then relocated to the roof of the beer truck. For a better viewing angle, you see.
And we’re back. FOR AMERICA, AMERICA!
Jermaine Jones answered the call and went all America up in here.
Tweets about #USA goals are fun.
Love it.
Then DEANDRE CAME INTO THE MATCH.
We just love him so much.
Clint strikes again.
SO much America everywhere. A big mess of America.
And you loved every minute of it.
And the crowd went wild again!
Make it so, US and A
Dang it, Portugal. Had to ruin it. Was a nasty cross from Ronnie though…
I like this picture because it’s red :-)
AND LOOK AT DEANDRE PLAYING AT THE WORLD CUP!
Boy, was it a party.
USA = In a good spot. Roll on, Thursday.
