Landon Donovan of the US celebrates with Clint Dempsey after scoring against Brazil during the Confederations Cup final

In the first half, it was all looking good for the Americans, playing in the men's final of a FIFA tournament for the first time, in the first half when Clint Dempsey and Landon Donovan gave the team a 2-0 halftime lead.

"You realize why these guys are worth so much at times like this, but it's still disappointing," Donovan said.

"We are in the position where we don't want respect, we want to win."
