Obama call inspires US to keep American dream alive

UNITED STATES coach Bob Bradley believes his team can go all the way to the World Cup final after receiving a team talk from President Barack Obama.

The president called the team on Thursday night during dinner to wish them well in tomorrow’s last 16 clash with Ghana at the Royal Bafokeng stadium.

Bradley, whose side finished top of Group C above England, said: “We were honoured before a big match to receive a call from President Obama and if we continue to build on the successes so far we can go to the end. That’s what it is all about, but that has to be balanced with a concentration on each game.
