The U.S. Olympic team was just a minute away from the most impressive result in U.S. men’s Olympic soccer history. One minute from a place in the quarterfinals, and one minute from potentially avoiding Argentina in the quarterfinal draw.

All that changed when Gerald Sibon drove a low free kick under the U.S. wall from 23 yards out to give the Netherlands a last-gasp equalizer and force the Americans to settle for a 2-2 tie in Olympic action on Sunday.

Sibon drew the late free kick on a clumsy challenge from Stuart Holden, who crashed into him at the top of the penalty area. Sibon capitalized, sending a hard and low shot below the airborne U.S. wall and past a helpless Brad Guzan.

The equalizer negated goals from Sacha Kljestan and Jozy Altidore, who helped erase a Dutch first-half lead with their own second-half strikes.

Now the Americans must secure a result a Nigeria or risk missing out on the quarterfinals. They will have to take on Nigeria without the services of Freddy Adu and Michael Bradley, who both drew ill-advised yellow cards, giving them each two for the tournament and an automatic one-match suspension.

The U.S. team won’t be the only one missing players for the crucial match. Nigerian defenders Onyekachi Apam and Olubayo Adefemi are also out do to yellow cards.

The tie leaves the United States at 1-0-1 heading into the final group match against Nigeria, which defeated Japan, 2-1.

The Americans can now secure a place in the quarterfinals with a tie against Nigeria. Here’s why. If the Netherlands defeats Japan and the USA ties Nigeria, that would leave the Dutch, USA and Nigeria tied at five points. The Americans would win a tie-breaker against Nigeria based on goals scored, which is the second tie-breaker (goal differential is the first tie-breaker and Nigeria and the USA would be equal there if they tied.). The U.S. team heads into its match against Nigerial having scored three goals, while Nigeria has scored two.

The U.S. team can also reach the quarterfinals if the Netherlands fails to beat Japan in its final group match.

I will offer a more detailed breakdown of the match later today. For now, please feel free to share your thoughts on the match below.

  1. Question about how to approach being in the wall.

    If a guy is getting a 10 yard head start to go at the free kick, it’s pretty obvious that he’s not going to be able to bend it over the wall. Therefore, the wall should stay grounded to stop the pending blast.

    When someone is tight to the ball, it’s pretty obvious that they’re going to bend it over…the wall should jump.

    Does that make sense as a strategy? It’s only downfall might be the potential decoys.

  2. I agree with those that are defending Holden. He was very close to getting the ball. I thought the team played very well overall, except McBride actually, who looked lost out there.

    I don’t know why the wall jumped. The ball was close enough to the goal that it would have been very difficult to get it up and down. If they are going to jump at that distance just go about 4 inches up so the ball can’t go under.

    The second half was some of the best soccer by an American side that I have seen for some time.

  3. We won’t go through unless Japan draws with Holland. We can not handle the Africans physical play without beeter ability to hold the ball. Bradley loss should not be discounted. He is nothing if not a tackling machine. Who replaces him who has as much aggression?

    Sad but true.

  4. It sucks the way we lost, but hey that’s soccer. We played a good game, and a draw against the favorite for the group is good. I mean, nobody outside of the posters on this group 🙂 would expect us to beat this Dutch team. But our team is showing it’s class and getting more confident as we go along. I’m feeling really good about our chances.

    But the hate on Holden is way misplaced. The guy is all over the field for 90 minutes. One minute he is rushing down field on a breakaway and the next he is defending on his own 18. He is holding the ball, making good passes and making great tackles. Next to Adu, he is definitely the class of the team. The only reason he is there to make that bad tackle is because of his high work rate. The tackle was bad, but after 90 minutes of hard running, your legs are like rubber and your timing is off. But still, he’s an outside mid on the center of the field at the 18 trying to take away a ball from an attacker in a dangerous position, as any good defending midfielder needs to do. And sure, he jumped in the wall, but the ball went under Sasha. Is Sasha the scapegoat? Was his goal all luck? Or is it the terrible last defending by the Dutch defender? And how awful was the Dutch defending on the goal by Jose? Maybe Sibon’s free kick was just sheer brilliance?

    And for all the Monday morning quarterbacks who only watch highlight reals and not full soccer games, almost nobody scores on free kicks under the wall. I’ve watched 100 games this year and that’s the first I’ve seen. I’ve seen a lot of lousy kicks into the wall however, and the occasional bad kick that bounces under or through a wall. And yes, I’ve seen the highlights of Ronaldinho and C. Ronaldo’s free kicks under the wall, but if you think that’s U23 soccer, you need to watch more games.

    Whatever. I think we played a good game; I’m really disappointed we didn’t win, but it was a great performance by this team. Go USA!

  5. Agree with some of the comments above that the wall should NEVER jump. It is much, much more difficult to hit the ball up and over the wall and then down and under the bar than it is to simply hit a low drive under the wall. Whoever is teaching these people to jump in a wall is a moron.

    Indeed, if you remember about 10 minutes earlier in the game, the Dutch had a free kick from a it farther out (which is easier to get down under the bar), but the Dutch player skied it into the 20th row of the stands. Never, ever, never jump.

    Also, Holden’s failure to pass 5 minutes earlier when he and Klejsten had a 2-on-none breakaway was pathetic. That was as much at fault for the US’s failure to win as was Holden’s foul and the wall’s idiotic jumping.

    I don’t see how anyone can have a good feeling for the Nigeria game after blowing this one, no matter how well we played. Blowing the points in the manner they did almost always come back to haunt you.

  6. Up until that foul, I thought Holden was having a good game (aggressive, skilled, confident w/ the ball). Looking at the replay, this goal, like most goals, was a team effort. Sacha’s turnover, Edu playing 4 yards off Sibon, Holden’s clumsy tackle, McBride/Sacha jumping. I still think Holden played a great game and is being villified unfairly considering other’s contributions to the same goal.

    Up until the bonehead time wasting play, Bradley was having one of his most patient and controlling games yet in a Nats shirt. I thought Edu started to show some cracks in the back that we got away with – mostly positioning and footwork that leaves him vulnerable (reminds me of the Giants secondary). That will come back to bite us, the same way giving up fouls around the box does.

    Before the game, 2-2 would have been great, it’s just the sour taste of how it happened. Really poor, tepid last 10 minutes.

  7. Look, I don’t understand why people are so down. Along with Nigeria we’re in the lead of our group and our fates are in our hands.

    If we consider that Nigeria and the US are roughly equal as teams — let’s just assume for the moment — than the chances of a win, tie or loss are each a third. We advance on two of those outcomes, so we have a 67% chance of advancing. That’s pretty good and definitely better than our chances were of tying or beating the Netherlands coming into this game.

    Our game and tactics won’t be the same without Adu and Bradley, but I think we can still compete with a 4-4-2 with Altidore partnering McBride up front and Szetela filling in for Bradley.

    What are the bookies in Vegas predicting? What are our odds?

    Reply
  8. Our lack of inexperience and professionalism cost us in the last few minutes and Nowak needs to have a technical adviser helping with substitutions.

    The US cannot replace Bradley with anyone on the current squad with his intelligence and tactical awareness and Adu would have been key on counter attacks after watching how exposed Nigeria leaves themselves at times.

    I hate to seem negative but I don’t think we can do it unless we shut it down for 0-0.

    Reply
  9. Hey BrianK, you still crying about Giuseppe Rossi? If Subotic doesn’t want to play for the US, it’s not the coaches fault. He’s certainly had plenty of opportunities to play for the olympic team and the senior national team. No one can force or encourage Subotic to play for us if that’s not what he wants to do.

    And Rongen’s right. The Netherlands has five players or more with Adu’s dribbling skills. The US has two — I count Altidore as the other. That situation is changing, but the flow of better technical players hasn’t yet passed through the U-20s.

    Reply
  10. I completely agree with people who bring up how much harder it is to hit a ball over the wall than under it. But I only blame coaches for walls that jump– it SHOULD be taught and stressed constantly… but it isn’t.

    And as for Holden not passing on the break– look at the replay: he absolutely knew Sacha was there. And when the lone defender commits to your side, you ALWAYS pass to the spot. Holden just got nervous and took the shot.

  11. Interesting note: A soccer writer of some import told me recently that Thomas Rongen was lamenting the lack of ‘on the ball skills’ that young American players have. As I watched the game (BTW – after the first 20 minutes the USA dominated the match!) I couldn’t help but wonder what Rongen was thinking. I was also thinking how this team would be with Nevin Subotic. Thanks Thomas!

    That’s one thing I noticed. As soon as the US got in it’s groove, the team passed really well. Holden, Kljestan and even Bradley started passing amoung themselves really well. Feilhaber didn’t miss a beat when he came in either. I was impressed.

    Reply
  12. Think the general tone here too negative. as noted by someone above, US was down 1-0 and was able to turn that around with poise and patience. Sux to draw for sure though…

    A question: Winning vs nigeria means avoiding Argentina assuming they win thier group (right)?

  13. Well,…I am gladly eating heaps of crow today. I had thought the USA would go 0-3-0 in this tournament. Good for the USA and good for Peter Nowak. Now, if we can only get a result against the Nigerian U-27 team.

  14. A thought about Wynne and player development:

    As a U20, Wynne looked like a man among boys. His speed and athleticism were eye-popping. I was immediately and extremely excited about his future.

    But almost immediately, the Smart Guys started complaining about his lack of technical skill, his touch and his crossing. All true enough, but it was pretty typical of the kind of thinking that players all have to be fully formed phenoms by 17 or 18, or they are just no good. The fact is people develop at different paces and Wynne had every tool you could want to build with. But so many people locked onto the image of him early in his rookie year and that was it. The improvement he made during that year was not even noticed.

    Well, things are starting to go the other way. He may be given too much credit. He still has work to do, but he has been a huge influence on these first two games.

    The point? Just this: Players develop and the path is not always (or even usually) predictable. Sometimes patience is rewarded

  15. Overall, this was a very good showing against a team that was supposed to be one of the top 3 teams in the tournament. It was an unfortunate tie in the end, but I pull hope from the fact that the US came close to winning this one with 5 goals. Orozco was inches off from redirect one past the keeper on a free kick; if someone would have made a run into the box they could have easily tapped in Wynne’s cross off of Drenthe’s missplay since the keeper was not there; if Holden would have played the ball across to Sacha on that break away he would have slotted one into a keeperless goal. I think this was a good showing for a team who was supposed to have no chance against the U-21 European champions. Hopefully they can fill in the voids left by Bradley and Adu and win one against Nigeria who are missing two starting defenders.

    Go out to your backyard/local park right now and set up 10 6ft tall friends and try to get a ball up and over them and below a 10ft tall bar 30 yards away and past a person trying to block it who will see it basically the whole time.

    Then move them out of the way completely and put a blindfold on the goal keeper you have and try to kick the ball in from there low. Tell me which one you manage to punch in more often.

    The fact is the last several years the better free kick takers have been exploiting walls that take 3 ft leaps into the air by simply going under.

    Reply
  17. @Posted by: doug | August 10, 2008 at 10:48 AM

    I totally agree with you. The last 3 years or so have seen every great free kick taker notice how high the walls jump the first 2 or 3 free kicks and then just start drilling it low. It’s 10 times easier to hit a shot low than it is to get up and over. That phenomenon has lead to people like Cristiano Ronaldo being seen as a ‘gret’ free kick taker. (he’s so not)

    This result really hurts. No one should feel good about this at all. We dominated most of that game and gave it away very very late.

    Nigeria will be playing to win since they aren’t assured of anything with a tie so we better bring our shooting boots.

    I hope Adu learned to keep a cooler head since his DUMB yellow in the first game is now costing us one of our better players. (Bradley being out is no shock he’s a yellow card machine)

    We can’t hold back and MUST attack the decimated Nigerian backline the way they are going to try to murder our newly thinned out midfield.

  18. Eugene,

    You are not an ignorant fool. Excellent points.

    To your point on the quality players for Holland. That is why the Olympics are so important to a team like the US. Coaches around Europe know how good the Dutch players are and when our guys perform like they did they immediately gain value in the international market which gets them to bigger clubs which further develops are players which allows our Senior National Team to perform better in the long run.

  19. I was thinking, if Nowak wanted to waste time why did he have Bradley take the yellow card on that free kcik. Why didn’t he have someone else who hadn’t recieved a card yet do it? But then again at that point we thought we were gonna close out the game and the yellow would have saved Bradley for the quarter finals. Whatever go USA!

    Reply
  20. And what’s all this nonsense about walls not jumping when there’s a free kick from 25 yards (or 22 yards as some have been writing in this case)? Walls jump because more often than not, the ball is going to be bent over the top of the wall.

    Sibon just hit a great goal, no doubt about it. He also took the lower probability shot and managed to convert it. I think it was more a special play on his part than a defensive mistake on ours that cost us the goal on the set piece.

  21. Ives, sorry to flame you, was just upset with the treatment of Holden and the dumping of woes on Holden. I was also reacting to a version of your post that said Holden was at fault for jumping in the wall and it made it seem that Holden had cost us the win single-handedly.

    I think the revised version is more accurate and less incriminating of him. All in all, I think Holden had a good game. It was his shot on goal in the first half (Michael Lewis says 40′ on mlsnet.com) that forced a highlight reel save from Dutch GK Vermeer and clearly rattled the Dutch side. For sure he should have passed to open Sasha for the put away goal on the break-away counter, but I’ve also seen Holden put away many a powerful shot from there, so I don’t know what happened to him in that instant — if he didn’t see the pass, or believe that he had it. Would be an interesting question to ask him.

    Ives, I also completely agree with your second comment. Amazingly, the US was dominating the match from (I thought) about the 30th minute. We were eating them up, controlling the midfield, and knocking on the door over and over. Vermeer was doing his utmost to keep them in the game with great saves, because the US were putting quality shots on frame over and over. Usually when that situation starts, its only a matter of time until one goes in — and in fact that’s what happened when Kljestan finally got the equalizer.

    I just want to remind everyone that most of our guys on the pitch today play in MLS (or Mexican 1st division for Orozco), outside of McBride, Adu and Bradley. Guzan and Altidore haven’t yet started playing in Europe. Contrast that with having Ryan Babel (Liverpool), Roysten Drenthe (Real Madrid), Vermeer (Ajax), Dirk Marcellis (PSV), Urby Emanuelson (Ajax), Hedwiges Maduro (Valencia), Otman Bakkal (PSV), and Jonathan de Guzman. It’s absolutely spectacular that our team was not only able to keep up these guys but to dominate them for an hour (from 30′ to ’80).

    I think our chances against Nigeria are pretty good. Probably better than our chances were against the Netherlands. We’ll have to play a different tactical game without Adu and Bradley, but I think if we put on a 4-4-2 with Altidore coming on as a second striker with McBride and Szetela coming on for Bradley, I believe we can take this game. I’d rather Szetela than Feilhaber, who I thought had no positive impact today when he came on for Freddy. I want to see what Szetela has learned playing in Italy — should be some hard tackles there and some one-touch football.

  23. I’m a bit shocked about Bradleys yellow. He knew good and well that ref would card him for that mickey mouse garbage, and now he won’t be available for the next match. I’ve always thought highly of Bradley, but as talented as he is, he continues to make some of the most bone headed decisions. At least Adu’s yellow came while being aggressive. Bradley got his for being an idiot.

  24. For all of those criticizing our players at the end of the match keep in mind it was in the 93rd minute of a game with lots of heat and 99 percent humidity and a horrible field. Everyone on the pitch except the subs were exhausted.

    Marvell Wynne will be getting attention from Europe immediately after this tournament. I can guarantee you Dutch coaches are already looking at the film and talking about him. He outplayed many of the highly rated Dutch players.

    Finally our quality showed through now we have another meaningful game for our wonderfully talented young players to excel in. I am looking forward to the Nigeria game.

  27. It was a great game to watch. I think we can get through Nigeria without those two. Nigerias attack is mostly counter and they will let us posses the ball. As long as we can atop their counter attack. “Hello quarters”

  28. I was always taught not to jump on spot kick from just outside the box. It’s almost impossible for even David Beckham to get the ball up over the wall and back down from that close. It’s much easier to score under the wall than over it at that spot.

    Overall, a brilliant job by the whole team. The passing was crisp and, after we weathered the initial Dutch onslaught, we clearly dominated the run of play. The combination passing was smarter and more dangerous than most of the work you see on the senior team.

    Guzan: 8 – Controlled his area well. Tough to fault him on either goal. Maybe he could have managed the wall better or cleared the first save better, but those are tough plays.

    Wynne: 7.5 – A couple early turnovers, a few wasted opportunities, failure to mark Babel on his goal but some great work in the air and was consistently dangerous pushing forward without ever getting burned on a counter.

    Parkhurst: 7.5 – Pretty invisible which is generally what you want from a central defender. Made some very smart, cool passes under the early Dutch pressure.

    Edu: 7.5 – Dangerous going forward, good in the air, smart passing. Again bears some responsibility for Babel goal. That ball went right over his head.

    Orozco: 8.5 – Generally shut down his side despite having to deal with Babel the bulk of the team. Great driven cross for Jozy’s goal.

    Holden: 7.0 – Was all over the field, tackling, passing, shooting with intensity and skill for 93 minutes. That last tackle was a killer, though. Good learning experience for the youngster who seems to have a high ceiling.

    Klejstan: 7.0 – Great goal, limited his turnovers for 93 minutes. See Holden. Klejstan has to limit his turnovers. They can be killers.

    Bradley: 6.5 – Pretty invisible effort from MB. The only time I notice him, he almost gave up a goal by inexplicably letting his man run right by him to luckily head it into the side netting on a set piece.

    Rogers: 7.0 – Great work rate. Ran up and down the field and challenged every ball. He didn’t know what the heck to do WITH the ball once he got it, but you’ve got to admire the effort.

    Adu: 9.5 – Pretty funny that the Dutch had 3 guys on Freddy all day when their coach said no one on the team stood out… huh. Phenomenal game despite constant double and triple teaming. He ran circles around the Dutch defenders.

    McBride: 8.5 – Every time he got anything remotely resembling service, he was dangerous.

    Altidore: 9 – Only because I can’t give a player who played 20 minutes a 10. Great goal. Great tackling at the end. Needs to limit his diving.

    Feilhaber: 8 – Several tremendous tackles down the stretch. A flawless 15 minutes. We’ll need a huge effort from him against Nigeria with Freddy and MB out.

    C’mon what? Did you read my post? I was disagreeing with the poster who thought taking the yellow was a good idea.

    His words are in quote marks at the top of my post. Unfortunately, because Ives has coding turned off here, it can be very difficult to clearly delineate quotes and excerpts, with italics or what have you. (If you’re reading this Ives, yes — that’s a gentle plea to let us code up our posts to make for more efficient conversation.)

  30. Marvell played fantastic today… he really is scary, scary fast. I wish he had a touch…

    Adu was great today and he will be missed in the next match. Bradley was being smart taking the yellow. He played the percentages and lost… it happens.

    Holden could have wrapped the game up but he also played fantastic in combinations in the second half. We looked classy today until the end of the match.

    If you want to prevent Bradley from being carded out of the quarterfinal game, wouldn’t it be easier and wiser to simply, you know, not play him in the final group game?

    He didn’t have to take a yellow card here to keep him from getting one against Nigeria, in other words.

Not a difficult proposition. Holden is the goat, Bradley and Novak did the right thing.

  37. Did the US lose? It sucks they ended in a tie when it was so close to the end. To me jumping in wall gives way more chance for a ball to go straight in or via a deflection. If they put it in the top corner tip your hat.

    As for Holden not passing the ball, i don’t think he should be crucified, because how many times have we said we need to be more aggressive.

    Sacha should have put the ball down to the far corner when he didn’t have options, but you know what I am guessing he will have learned a lesson today. Natural grass normally way better than turf, but today I am not so sure that field was awful.

    Go for the glass is half full outlook, not what could have been. Before this started we would have been happy with the opportunity to control our own destiny in the third game.

  40. The boys did great today. That last goal was just very disappointing. I think we didn’t get some calls by the ref that we should have. Still, with a few minutes to go we have to play smarter – nothing close to a foul should take place near the box. So we have a shot against Nigeria but it will be harder without Adu and Bradley. And how Alitdore does not start is beyond me. Norwalk is a joke.

    Reply
  41. Ives, just cause Nigera didn’t look that dangerous against the Dutch doesn’t mean that they’ll be any less of a dangerous team. We didn’t exactly look amazing against Japan, but did so today, so I don’t see what bringing up a team’s past performance hast to do with how they’ll perform in the future.

    Reply
  42. I – who, incidentally, am a Cubs fan – was full of doom and gloom earlier this morning, but now I’m looking at it this way: if Japan and the Netherlands tie, we’re through. If they tie and we tie, we win the group. If you had offered me that a week ago, I would have taken it.

    I hope we simply stick with the 4-4-2, swapping Altidore for Adu and Sztela for Bradley. The good news is that now Nowak HAS to put Altidore on the field. I’m all about silver linings right now.
