Normally, I'd also cheer for the US when Canada is no longer in the picture. My mother is american and I have dual citizenship so the US is like my second home.

In an instance like this, I just can't bring myself to cheer for a team that clearly has no respect for Team Canada or the fight they put up today.

From Wambach basically calling them sore losers to Hope Solo not giving Christine Sinclair any credit whatsoever for what was undoubtedly the game of her life. Would it have killed her to admit Sinclair is a world class player and had a great game? Instead she takes all credit away from Sinclair and blames the goals on her teammates.

The game is over, they won and they're still not capable of showing any sportsmanship.
