The U.S. C-team lost their third and final match 1-0 to Colombia in the 2007 Copa America, going 0-3 and finishing dead last in Group C. Think they'll invite us back? Not likely.Columbia's Jaime Castrillon scored the only goal of the game in the 16th minute. The only highlight for the U.S. was Chivas USA goalkeeper Brad Guzan's save on a Colombia PK in the 36th minute.
BTW, Mexico, who took both the Gold Cup and Copa America seriously, beat both Brazil and Ecuador to finish atop of their group. Stay tuned for TYH's commentary of the tournament.
