2342501, The overhead angle is even better

I don't have the picture or video but ESPN had it with Ballack breaking it down. He pretty much said everything that's already been stated but that angle made it even more egregious. The worst part is that there's no Portugal attacker other than Ronaldo on the right yet you have 3 US defenders bunched around the near cross, ALL watching Cristiano. Cameron is the farthest CB, completely ball watching, never even thinks about taking a peak to get his bearings, and then Fabian Johnson who is trailing Varela clearly gives no kind of shout to Cameron. It's an absolute failure at the back...Ballack even said that all the negative press on Bradley is completely overblown bc a turnover like that happens 15-20 times a game AND it was in the opponents half....AND you had 6 defenders back. Blaming only Bradley in that situation while overlooking the failure of 5 others is ridiculous.
