On Tuesday, the USA faces Trinidad & Tobago in Port of Spain, site of perhaps the greatest moment in modern U.S. Soccer history when in 1989 Paul Caligiuri scored the goal that
sent the USA back to the World Cup for the first time in 40 years. Relive the historic goal along with memories from Coach Bob Gansler, Tab Ramos, Peter
Vermes, John Harkes, Tony Meola and, of course, Caligiuri.
Here is how I remember that game. The goal was a fluke it went it only because he got it at on a high bounce. Get a ball on a high bounce the chances are it will dive down not up. That is why it was on goal and went in.
Gansler team could not put three passes in a row in back then.
