Dempsey shoots, Saved?, GOAL!! The Shot heard 'round the World

After Steven Gerrard's quick goal in the 3rd minute of the first round match between England and the United States of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, many people thought it was over for the US, England has too much power?

Maybe not.

Robert Green thought differently.
The West Ham keeper single handedly let the USA back into the match.
Though Fabio Capello had a difficult choice of who would start in between the pipes. Would it be Veteran David James, Joe Hart and Green.
Obviously Capello picked wrong.




After the shot by Fulham and US star Clint Dempsey, the ball rolled to Green, the Jubalani ball, hit his gloves and moves right past him and crossed the line, a goal for Dempsey.





The Jubulani ball has been criticized by many Keepers in this 2010 World Cup for going 5 more mile per hour in the air, and taking wild bounces.

Green proves that these complaints are real, and the Jubulani ball will stay in the spotlight.





From all USA fans, thanks Robert Green for giving us too mush confidence?
