Sweet relief
While we're waiting in the press conference room for Bob Bradley, US Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati comes in, all smiles, and takes a seat in the gallery. He's clearly pleased at the win over Denmark. Still, I couldn't help but wonder if he was sweating out the one goal deficit in the first half, when the U.S. team simply wasn't playing that well.
I decide to ask him. "Sunil, were you getting a little nervous there when the team went down a goal?"
He says nothing, and I think maybe he hasn't heard me. Then he looks over and nods, just once, but emphatically.
