United States vs. Czech Republic

The game begins. The US is wearing blue. The keeper for the US is one of the best in the world they say. Keller, the keeper, keeps a shut out for most of his games. The refs are calling a lot against the US so far and it’s only 2 minutes into the game.
US gets a shot on goal, just a bit too high. Finally a foul on the Czechs. Another foul on the US. The ref gives yellow card on Onyewu. That was dumb. Had a smaller player done the same thing, it would have been nothing, but because he is big, he gets a card.
The Czech’s score off a header. The are dominating the game so far. The US needs to be more aggressive. Score 1-0 for the Czechs, in the 6th minute.
The Czechs are ranked second in the world behind Brazil. This should be a tough game for the US, but I still think they can do it.
Another shot on goal, with a great save by the Czechs. Donovan had a good run going with the ball, when one of the Czechs knocked him down. That was clearly a foul. And the ref recognizes it and give a yellow card.
Big shot opportunity that was off the bar. Almost for the US. There it goes again, another goal for the Czechs. This is not good for the US. The US are not looking good right now. I hope that it is just because the Czechs are that good. I hope the US can put this behind them and play better for the rest of the Cup. I guess there is still time to come back in this game, but being down 2-0 is not an easy thing to overcome.
Koller of the Czechs goes down. It looks like a hamstring. He is injured pretty bad, he may not be coming back. This may give the United States a chance to come back. But I do hope Koller is OK.
The Czechs are still dominating the game. They haven’t scored again, but the US can’t seem to control the ball, and their players are doing nothing.
The Czechs score again, and that pretty much ends this game. The US has very little chance of coming back now. In fact, next to no chance. There is not enough time. The US needs to put this game behind them and focus on their next two games against Ghana and Italy. If they win both of those games, they should be moving on. They need to play a lot better though.
