As I begin this post, the United States is three minutes (stoppage time) away from completing an improbable victory over Egypt. Amazingly enough, they're also only minutes away from from advancing to the semi-final round of the Confederations Cup thanks to the 3-0 thumping that Brazil just administered to Italy.

To say that I'm stunned would be the understatement of a lifetime.

And not only over the improbably advancement; the final whistle has just blown, and the impossible has now happened. The US is set to play Spain in the next round of the tournament. I'm more stunned over this performance; with an Egypt side with everything to play for lining up against them, the US performance is all the more impressive.

So what does it mean? I honestly have no idea. I expect this goes to the players more than it does Bob Bradley, but it's really impossible to know. Perhaps Bob did figure something out after two poor performances, and righted the ship as he's paid to do.

What I do know is that this result makes the new MFUSA Soccer Show a bit irrelevant; it was recorded yesterday, and those of us involved did not see this coming.

But I plan to release it anyway. Mostly because the work is ninety percent done, but also because it illustrates just how quickly fortunes can turn in the world of international soccer. Plus, you get to laugh at us (though I think all that participated would still argue for the replacement of Bob Bradley).

Cheer to the US on a fantastic performance, and thank you Brazil for kicking the Italians around.
