Cologne (Germany) (AFP) - Jurgen Klinsmann's USA shocked Germany with a 2-1 victory in Wednesday's friendly as the Stars and Stripes followed up their win over the Netherlands by beating the world champions.

Bobby Wood, who plays for Germany's third division side Erzgebirge Aue, scored the winner just before the final whistle to seal the Americans' deserved victory.

It capped a dream few days for the 22-year-old who also hit the winner when the USA fought back to stun the Netherlands 4-3 in Amsterdam last Friday.

Again the USA fought back from a goal down to cap a strong display as Germany suffered their third defeat since winning the World Cup last year.

3. There is a whole new batch of players doing this stuff.

Some of the older ones are around, but the young ones are very talented.

5. Well, they ARE ranked #2, whereas the men are ranked #27

But then again, America's world class female soccer players play soccer while America's world class male soccer players play football, basketball, and baseball.

4. I foresee another Hitler video

where Adoplh melts down then complains that instead of bribing the FIFA officials they should have paid Klinsmann more. Then he will exile Klinsman and revoke his citizenship because he is a traitor to the Deutchsland.
