USA vs. Panama Review

It seems like it takes the United States three-quarters of the game to get warmed up.

The U.S. style is to come back at the very end of games to win, as was the case last summer in the World Cup.

In this case, they didn't have enough steam to make the comeback.

For the last quarter of the game, the U.S. was the far superior team with more than enough chances to score and enough close calls to make everybody rooting for the U.S. rip their hair out.

Landon Donovan said after the game that they just needed to start the game out better.

With the win, Panama qualifies for the next round.

The U.S. needs to beat Guadaloupe on Tuesday and have Panama defeat Canada.

Even though they were our friends tonight, they need to be our friends on Tuesday night.
