USA Sets Record, Puts Eight Past Barbados
FanHouse — Filed under: Soccer, FIFA World Cup, US Soccer After challenging itself with friendlies against England, Spain and Argentina, the U.S. men's national team probably figured its opening World Cup Qualifier against Barbados would be cake. Still, cake was never this easy. The U.S. reeled off an 8-0 victory, the largest margin of victory in the team's 122-year history, not to mention a win twice as big as most of my blowout victories when I'm playing Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 for the Wii.

USA Scores Record 8 Goals Against Barbados
FanIQ Blog — The US Soccer team isn't exactly known for its ability to score, so Sunday's 8 goal record outburst against Barbados was sort of a surprise.

Just to put this in perspective, here's what winning 8-0 in a soccer game is the equivalent to in other sports. Real football: 278-0 Hockey: 43-0 Baseball: 94-0 Basketball: ∞-0 Obviously it will ...

If USA scores the first goal in Sunday's return leg in Barbados, the hosts will need to score 10 goals to advance to the regional ...

Barbados World Cup Dreams Go Down Hard [World Cup Qualifying]
Deadspin — Well, that went about as expected, considering that Sussman is their starting goalie.
