Even with the amazing goal and first touch by Julian Green, Belgium defeated the US 2-1 in overtime. I sulked out of Petco Park and headed back to my office dispirited and very badly sunburnt.
However, the loss cannot take away the amazing experience of walking in the American Outlaws San Diego’s energetic March to the Match and watching the game with thousands of enthusiastic fans all donning red, white and blue.
I am looking forward to Russia in 2018!
