From the Guardian:

The New York Times called it “a miracle on grass”. It was a very deliberate allusion to the legendary Miracle On Ice, when the USA’s band of amateur and collegiate ice hockey players beat the fearsomely omnipotent Soviet Union at the 1980 Winter Olympics. That spectacle is fondly regarded as perhaps the greatest day of the underdog in the history of US sport. And what Bob Bradley’s footballers achieved at Spain’s expense at the Confederations Cup is not far behind.
