So we just came back from a 3-1 2nd half deficit to take a 4-3 lead in Amsterdam Arena. That was pretty sweet.

That is pretty crazy. I thought the Hunter had put them away.

Yedlin came on and they couldn't handle his fresh speed. Also, the Dutch played some hilariously lax defense on the 2nd and 4th goals. You can't just switch off against any team worth its salt, they will score.

First time we've ever beaten the Dutch. Yeah, their defense was comical at times, but a win is a win.

It was like the Dutch just stopped caring. They should have played Yackety Sax over some of that Dutch defending.

This is awesome. I don't care if it's a friendly, beating the Dutch is huge.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not taking anything away from the victory. We had scored a grand total of 1 goal against the Dutch before this match, it's a big deal.

The Dutch have been a mess ever since the World Cup - they are struggling big time in their European Championship qualifying group: http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/qualifi...428/index.html

The Dutch should've scored twice after US tied it.

I picked up the game at the start of the second half and turned it off when we went down 3-1. I was surprised to hear we came back to win. Robben wasn't playing was he?

re: Official USMNT/USWNT Thread

Robben wouldn't have saved them.

Honestly could have been like 9-9. Both teams hit the woodwork so much you'd think they were having a contest.

Yes, great for my household, as I am married to a colombiana for over 9 years now. 1-0 win even down a man late in game after double yellow. Hope losing him for next match against Serbia does not hurt.

It's getting to the point that you can just expect Michael Bradley to misplace a vital pass on counters. AMF he ain't.
