I’ve been to a few World Cups and I know what it takes and I think the USA squad had it–it was just wrong luck at the wrong time. What a show they put on though. It was a remarkable run and everybody should be proud of them. Change horses in last of the 6th, and it would have been all over. I know that it’s not easy and sometimes impossible with the draw. Either way you all were amazing US and hats off to Spain for never quitting.
I think the play of team was incredible, just as you would expect from a Julio Arellano team, and boy, he must have been overrun with emotion with the Play of Hope, his daughter. She was unbelievable and without a doubt the best Player for her Handicap in the Tournament. Absolutely amazing with the Man and the Ball. I would love to hear what Spain’s # 4 had to say about her.
Thanks for a fantastic show and thanks to Valiente and Mr Bob J for making it happen. This was one hell of a gift to the World Cup and may never happen again, but that’s Sir Bob–he does it that way. It was a great show by all: Niko, Lucas, Augustine, and for sure Hope. You were all amazing, and best of LUCK in your futures both in POLO and LIFE .
One hint: when you get tied up in last chukkar for OT, shake the tension. It happens often, and the best answer for it I have is to pretend the game just started, and with the first throw in, just do it .
WELL DONE USA
