My first live soccer match & I attend a National game.  FAAAANNNNNTASTIC luck!

Scored 2 tickets on stubhub & drove to Denver (with my friend Matt) to watch Team USA (defending Olympic champions) play China at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, home of the Colorado Rapids.

Skies were overcast, then sunny, then dark grey – lotta rain clouds.  Layers on, off, then on again – typical Colorado spring day.  Luckily the weather cooperated; rain held out until the final 2 minutes.

The American women dominated this day – China relegated to defending both halves.

Final score – USA 2, China 0.

Could have been much worse – Team USA outshot the Chinese 23-1.  U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
