  • U.S. Makes Confederations Cup Semifinals As Brazil Beats Italy - Bloomberg
    U.S. Makes Confederations Cup Semifinals as Brazil Beats Italy - Bloomberg http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=21070001&sid=aVKiXI4sEj2I U.S. Makes Confederations Cup Semifinals as Brazil Beats Italy By Tariq Panja - Jun 22, 2009 June 22 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. soccer team will play Spain in the semifinals of the Confederations Cup after beating Egypt 3-0 and Brazil defeated world champion Italy by the same score. Brazil scored its goals in the last eight minutes of the first half to leave Italy facing its biggest halftime deficit in 52 years. The U.S. finished second in the group -- after beginning the day in last place -- because it scored one more goal than Italy. The two teams finished with three points each and the same goal difference. Group B winner Brazil, which has now won six straight matches, will meet host South Africa on June 25. A day earlier, the U.S., which lost its opening two games, will face the European champion, which is unbeaten in a record-tying 35 games and has won 15 straight matches, the longest winning streak in international soccer. The final is scheduled for June 28. The eight-team competition gives South Africa the opportunity to stage a tournament ahead of next year’s World Cup, when it will become the first African nation to stage soccer’s biggest event. Italy’s 1-0 loss to Egypt in its second match left it needing a win against record five-time world champion Brazil at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria yesterday to be sure of progressing.
