Reaction: El Salvador Sneaks 90+ Minute Goal to Eliminate US

Tonight the U.S. was dumped out of the 2012 Olympics in heart breaking fashion, giving up a very late goal in stoppage time that knotted the score at 3-3.  The U.S. finished third in Group A and, as a result, does not advance to the semifinals.

Earl Reed,Chris Webb, and I chatted about the result and the tournament in a special post-match chat.  Read our thoughts below, listen to the MLS Talk podcast tomorrow, and share your feedback on the match itself, the tournament, Caleb Porter’s decisions, and the state of U.S. soccer below.
