Daily News | Vlatko Andonovski liked how the U.S. played vs. the Netherlands, but not many other people did
At the end of a news conference grilling from the American media horde, it was hard to avoid wondering if Andy Reid had watched the game back in the heartland. The two coaches know each other, and Andonovski has been a guest of honor at Arrowhead Stadium many times.Lindsey Horan’s header saves a 1-1 tie for the U.S. vs. the Netherlands at the World Cup
“Of course we thought about substitutes, and Lynn was probably one of the first that would have been on the field if we needed to change something,” Andonovski said. “But I thought we had control of the game, and I thought that we were knocking on the door of scoring a goal. The players played well; we were around the goal the whole time, and I just didn’t want to disrupt the rhythm at that point.
The fire the U.S. needed to come from behind came not from any shots taken with the ball, but from a shot taken by Lindsey Horan in a crunching challenge with Daniëlle van de Donk. The two teammates at French club Lyon then exchanged some heated words, and got stern talkings-to from referee Yoshimi Yamashita.“Unfortunately I did not take it in a good way — I got a little heated and she got to hear it,” Horan said.
