American Samoa - First ever win in FIFA WC Qualification round

[Melanicus 5,208]

The team that ten years ago recorded the largest defeat in any international football match (0 - 31 vs Australia) and ranked last in FIFA rankings just made history by collecting their first ever win in the FIFA World Cup qualification round with a 2-1 victory over Tonga.

So glad for them lol They don't play for the fame or money.. and even a single goal feels like victory for them even if they lose.

they have now one 2 in a row and if they win tomorrow they move to the next round of qualification for the world cup, which would be nice to see. I hope they don't over shadow their success on the pitch with talk about the one player who is fa'afafines or a lady boy as they are known in Asia. Some of the articles I have I have read have concentrated on that which is sad since there are so many other players on the team.
