thanks to some help from South Korea.

<a href="http://www.macon.com/mld/macon/sports/3470036.htm" target="_blank">U.S. falls to Poland 3-1 but advances</a>

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Park Ji-sung scored for South Korea at Incheon against Portugal and the South Koreans held on for a 1-0 win that put the Americans in the second round for the first time since 1994. The United States will play regional rival Mexico on Monday.

The crowd at Daejeon World Cup Stadium, following the other game as closely as this one, went wild when South Korea scored. At first the American bench didn't know what to make of it. Brian McBride, who already had come out of the game, turned around with a wild-eyed look as if to say, "Could this be true?"

The South Koreans did indeed score, and they won Group D with seven points. The Americans finished second with four, one point ahead of the Portuguese. When the South Korea game ended, 3:35 before the U.S. game concluded, the crowd roared. Some of the U.S. players held their hands to their heads, having a hard time believing it was true.</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">USA...USA...USA! <img border="0" alt="[Cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/cheers.gif" />
