The Confederations Cup so far has been a ride full of surprises so far and although many wanted the “superfinal” between Spain and Brazil but the United States of America put an impressive performance with heart and determination to carry themselves out of the “group of death” winning 3-0 against back to back African Cup of Nations champions Egypt and were helped by Italy losing 3-0 to Brazil, after this when put against European Champions Spain which had a 15 game winning streak which they wanted to continue, the USA fights with determination and grit to beat the #1 team in the world 2-0. Now having made it into the first final of a FIFA competition, the United States of America now faces their greatest challenge, a cynical and powerful Brazil team.
