In the midst of this Red Bulls? season on the road to nowhere, came the United States? gutsy, yet unsuccessful effort Monday against Italy in the FIFA Confederations Cup tournament being held in South Africa. Playing with 10 men after the 34th minute, the U.S. probably had fans from Milan to Sicily puzzled, as the Azzuri trailed, 1-0, in the second half, courtesy of a Landon Donovan penalty-kick goal.
