Look, it’s been a long night (morning?), so I won’t bury the lede. Here’s how the U.S. bowed out of the World Cup in its earliest exit ever, losing to Sweden 5-4 on penalty kicks in the World Cup round of 16 at AAMI Park in Melbourne. Let’s recap:
120 minutes scoreless, despite 22 shots, 583 passes and a 77% passing.
