The U.S. men's national team today finds itself only 90 minutes from making history and winning its first major international soccer tournament in the FIFA Confederations Cup final in Johannesburg. The Americans have to beat mighty Brazil to do so.
"We found out against Spain that anything's possible," goalkeeper Tim Howard said of the 2-0 upset of the world's top-ranked team in Wednesday's semifinals.
If the U.S. pulls off its second huge stunner within five days, it would send shock waves throughout the world. "If beating Spain in the semifinals was a statement, then this would be incredible," Howard said. "It probably will be one of the most unexpected wins in the history of sports."
