Freddy On Fire!!!

Freddy Adu was once again the focal point of US's success. Scoring two goals from set pieces and being a constant danger to the Canadian defense.
Throughout this tournament, Freddy has been the leader of this young U-23 team that will be in Beijing. He is currently THE player at the forefront of new emerging talent out of the US. Having scored in every game he has played so far, Freddy has dominated the opposition and has shown why Benfica spent 2mm on him this past summer.
He is a player that can not be discounted off the Benfica squad, and that will quickly find his way on to the starting 11, as early as next season. Freddy has made a tremendous leap in maturity level and also in his game mentality, a change that is being reaped first hand by the US national team.

It's a shame that he didn't/doesn't play as much as he should in Benfica. The game that he did played were awesome, and there is one goal that he scores in Estadio da Luz that i wasn't expecting... hell, no one was expecting that goal! Shame that i don't remember in which video i saw that...
