can anyone describe the goal to the guy at work?

Donovan and Dempsey fed each other the ball working upfield, Dempsey passes over to Alitdore who spins around the defender and slots a shot towards goal. The keeper was on the wrong foot, got a bit of a hand on it, but the shot still went in.

Dempsey fed it in to Ailtdore, who showed great strength to turn and fend off Xavi, before doing Casillas with his eyes, sending the ball to his right and in off the post, while the keeper went left, although he did manage a touch.

When did this rule come into effect? This morning?

According to wikipedia:

quote:
A player is cautioned and shown the yellow card if he/she commits any of the following offences:

* Unsporting behaviour (includes extravagant celebration, such as covering one's head with one's jersey or removing it over the head, and simulating actions intended to deceive the referee, such as diving; a caution for a poor challenge or tackle is also classified here); until 1997 this was called "ungentlemanly conduct"

Did David Villa just shoot form mid field?

That is what my game tracker says.

USA finally was patient and held the ball for a few seconds. The ball was passed up the pitch on our left side. The ball was then played to Jozy in the middle near the box. His defender got himself out of position, and he shot a rocket off the goalie into the lower left corner of the net.
