The US played Panama in the Quarterfinals of the 2009 Gold Cup in Philadelphia. Photos after the jump.
Cleats on the back, nice.
Jimmy Conrad crunched heads and was knocked out of the game, wtf moment.
Beckerman hits a laser and goes nuts, cool.
Great expressions here, with the beer shower.
Cooper must have envisioned a moment like this many times as a kid, practicing against his Old Man, Dallas Tornado gk Kenny Cooper Snr.
Winning expression, flag in the background, nice.
Photo captures the Panamanian player trying to hit a security guard at the end of the game.
Tiny moment - this guy has just lost a heartbreaking game, but he seems to have been caught by surprise and touched with the nice gesture from Coach Bradley.

Beckerman’s reaction was priceless.
Who wears a Brazil jersey to a game when they’re supporting Panama? WTF
