The rain is pouring down at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, but the USA won't mind - they've gone ahead early in their 2014 World Cup qualifier to Antigua and Barbuda thanks to Carlos Bocanegra. The hosts managed to win a corner in the 8th minute, and Landon Donovan waited patiently for Bocanegra to change his footwear before launching a nice delivery into the box.
Hercules Gomez got to the ball first, but his header was kept out well by Molvin James. Unfortunately for the visitors, he couldn't hold on to the wet ball, and Bocanega (who really should have been picked up by Lawson Robinson) was available to stab home under heavy pressure. So, it's 1-0, and the party is, most probably, just getting started. How many goals do we think the USA can get here. Six? Seven? Clint Dempsey and Michael Bradley have both come reasonably close to making it 2-0 already, and it's probably only a matter of time before James is force to pick the ball out of the back of his net again.
