You can hear the chants of U.S.A.! U.S.A.! loud and clear across the Atlantic.
Clint Dempsey's goal in the 55th minute was more than a game-changer for the United States. It was a game-winner.
The score -- the lone goal in the 1-0 win over Italy in Wednesday's friendly contest in Genoa -- marked the first win for the Americans over the Azurri in 11 games spanning 78 years, as reported by Fox News Latino.
Before Wednesday's contest the U.S. was 0-7-3 -- and outscored 32-4 -- against the four-time world champs. It was also the biggest achievement to date for new head coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who replaced fired former coach Bob Bradley last summer.
This was the fourth straight win and the third consecutive shutout for the U.S., which is 5-4-1 under Klinsmann.
