It certainly has been a strange turn of events. Brazil defeated USA to take the Confederations Cup title for their second year. It was widely believed that Spain was going to win it, but after a disappointing loss against USA Spain found themselves fighting for third.
Brazil celebrates victory over USA in FIFA Confederations Cup final - June 28, 2009
It was within USA grasp, yet they couldn’t quite make the magic happen. The game ended in a narrow victory of 3-2. Donovan lead the USA in a 2-0 lead before half-time, yet by the end of the game Brazil fought back with everything they had. Brazil certainly earned this win, though it was disappointing for US fans who looked forward to their first FIFA win ever. Instead they will just need to be satisfied with the fact that this was the first time ever the United States played in a FIFA final, a title long overdue.

good play from brazil,. for US is not your time to be a champion,.. good luck for the later championsip
Let’s face it… Brazil is the only country five-time WORLD CUP CHAMPION
and now the only country three-time CONFEDERATION CUP CHAMPION
Brazil is probably the one country that can always make a difference
If they are able to fight back, even losing by 2-0 and still win, well…again it is not our time to be a champion yet.
We’re learning, and we did a quite good job and our time will come!
