The secretary of defense was left to die… Tim Howard single handedly is my favorite American player of all time, and watching this game proves me right, amazing effort but Belgium is just too strong.

FIFA • Round of 1607/01/2014

In 2014 I was 23 years old and working at the Grand Hyatt New York which sits atop Grand Central Station and was Hyatt's flagship hotel at the time with over 1,300 rooms. I was at work during this game but my job was to oversee the dishwashers and manage the silverware and glassware for the many restaurants and corporate banquet space at the property. So I casually made it known that I would be monitoring the main bar at the very front if the hotel to ensure they wouldn't run out of steins and pints. I also invited my friends and in between "working" we watched the match together. Needless to say it was one of those core memories that will always be tinted and sad because of how close Wondo was. TO think that 12 years later we would face them again and have an even worse result just goes to show you how far behind US Soccer is from the rest of the footballing world.

extremely mean to put this as the classic the same week after the utter embarrassment the usmnt put up last week. nonetheless this game was objectively unreal and created tim howard as the secretary of defense. a world cup record with saves and its so unfortunate we couldn't put an offense together to match his performance. wondolowski unfortunately ends up becoming a living meme with one of the worst misses i had ever seen at the time. the first heartbreak i experienced as a usmnt fan
