USA 2 - El Salvador 1

In a moderately impressive showing, the US national team beat El Salvador 2 to 1 on Saturday evening. Although I do not believe our third goal should have been disallowed, we played quite well, and for a brief moment, we were at the top of our qualifying group.

Mexico managed to get themselves together and are now barely trailing behind us, while Costa Rica, who had quite a lead until Saturday, have slipped into the non-qualifying part of the table.

I believe the US will qualify, but unless we see a performance reminiscent of this last summers Confederations Cup, we won't last long in South Africa.
