Central Florida soccer star Graham Zusi thanks fans for support in World Cup

Lake Brantley grad comments on victory over Ghana

LONGWOOD, Fla. – For the first time since his corner kick helped give Team USA a dramatic win over Ghana in the World Cup, Central Florida soccer star Graham Zusi discusses the feat.

A Longwood native, Zusi graduated from Lake Brantley High School in Altamonte Springs.  He says the team would not have been able to pull off the World Cup win without support from home.

"It's an incredible feeling, the support we had from the fans in the stadium, along with the fans we had in every corner of the country.  We felt that," Zusi said.

Next up for Team USA is a match against Portugal.  Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday at 6 p.m. EDT.
