Good defense from the U.S. in the final third.
Italy drove possesion and had the ball all game but without Cassano, Rossi, and Balotelli they just had no quality in the final third.
Italy tends to struggle in matches when the other team sits back and defends. They are much better when they are forced to defend and can create off the counter, but when they are forced to create against a team that is sitting back they just don't have the cutting edge in the final third.
Looks like there is a crazy ending going on in England right now.
