The Home Stretch

Well, here we are.
I’m about 30 minutes away from checking out of my last hotel this trip and heading over to the Beer Garden in town for a gathering of U.S. fans. The day is filled with potential and I can’t help but think that today’s result could end up being among our country’s most significant in soccer history.
Should we win, get the help we need and advance out of the group stage, it would prove to the sport’s world powers that the U.S. is not only legitimate, but can survive against the toughest of competition. I hope everyone at home plans to watch.
In case this is my final post before returning to the States, I just want to thank you all for reading and I hope you enjoyed this look into one person’s trip to the greatest sporting event you can find. Until we meet again.
