no he didn’t. the american forwards were just throwing themselves to the ground whenever anyone came near, even his booking was a dive. granted most of his passes were to his fullback but he did what was asked of him.

that was never a penalty altidore dived knowing he’d lost the ball. his yellow card was superb defending he was left in a 2 on 1 situation and he made sure dempsey couldn’t make the pass and then made a great challenge which he gets booked for because dempsey dives the defending around him was so poor he single handedly got the clean sheet thats why its considered a superb defensive performance
