Men's Soccer Team's Big Wins!

Just  thought I'd drop a quick soccer note. Jurgen Klinsmann has pushed all the right buttons in the last two US Soccer friendlies. First a 4-3 win over the Netherlands and today with a 2-1 win over Germany. Center-mid Michael Bradley lead the US charge as he helped dominate the midfield with Kyle Beckerman. Both players have earned the right to play on the world stage.

 Both are quite impressive since both teams are considered soccer world powers. Could the US somehow keep this momentum the next 3 years till the World Cup. I have no clue, but we will get to see how the US team responds after these wins, in the Gold Cup starting in July.

Champions League Final: Barca vs. Juventus

 This year's battle lines up the Spanish machine of Barcelona vs. the mighty Italian side of Juventus. Anything could happen, but the Barcelona side is very potent offensively with Messi, Neymar and Suarez. Juventus counters with a strong defense and skill players like Carlos Tevez and Alvaro Morata and hoping they can create something out of nothing. I'm sure we are all hoping for an exciting final, but I feel we might have a let down. I hope I eat my words. 

I'm predicting a 3-1 Barcelona victory

Game begins at 1:45pm CDT on FOX

Here's the match-ups preview: Barcelona vs. Juventus
