Ok, I may have phrased my question poorly. I'm not referring to today's game really but to soccer in general. Is there a certain strategy to playing "longball" soccer, or is it just a necessity to advance the ball down field when you're out of gas?
My only reason for asking was that I've seen the US resort to this type of "attack" in previous instances as early as the beginning of a game so I was hoping someone could shed some light as to why that approach would be taken.

Sometimes. When the U.S. does it, it's normally Bob Ball, or the act of kicking it as far as you can and hoping one of our guys gets it on a break. It rarely works.
