Concacaf Gold Cup Semi Finals

Clint Dempsey and teammates celebrate his goal

June 28, 2011 – I had the pleasure of shooting the Concacaf Gold Cup semi finals at Reliant Stadium in Houston.  I had shot the Mexican national team a few  times before, but had never had the opportunity to shoot the US national team.  I have been a fan of the US team for years, and I must say that it was very cool to get a chance to shoot their game.  It was a sellout, but the stadium wasn’t full during the US game, but once the Mexico/Honduras game started the place was crazy.  The US beat Panama 1-0 in the first game and then Mexico beat Honduras 2-0 to set up the dream matchup of the US v. Mexico in the final at the Rose Bowl.
