Donovan did what he often has to do for the US side, when they are down, and that is to come out of the dressing room at half and fire up his team. He scored a goal from what looked to be an impossible angle, and that fire and determination lit up the team. Bradleys goal was great in that most players would have shot it over the crossbar. And yes, Altidore used his body and nodded the ball down for Bradley.
The goal that was disallowed, was such a bad call on so many levels. Bradley was taken down in the box and Edu was not offsides. LD got his team, from the beginning of the second half to show the spirit and grit to win or tie after being down 2 goals. Too bad the ref was so poor or they would be sitting pretty at the top. I have seen replay after replay and it looked like at least 3 US players were fouled in the box and a good goal negated. The worst official ever, and I am sure that we never invaded Mali.
