Blood on my jersey, bliss in my heart

June 24th, 2010

After Landon Donovan scored the winner against Algeria, everything goes hazy in my memory. I recall the smell of sweat, the feel of beer on my skin, and (true story) blood on my jersey. A moment I’ll never forget.

Where were you? What is the memory you’ll carry with you?

Landon just tagged this video on Facebook with the comments:

Not sure if you guys saw this but it brings tears to my eyes every time. Thank you all so much…we can’t do it without you guys. Believe

    This is Justin (the guy sitting with you and Rhett). I noticed the blood but couldn't remember if it was there before the goal or after the goal. I came out with bruised shins somehow. So crazy. Glad we were there for that moment.
