U.S. Soccer gives Bradley four-year extension

Soccer Betting Lines

08/30/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The United States men's national soccer team has announced a four-year contract extension for head coach Bob Bradley.

The 52-year-old Bradley engineered the U.S. to an unbeaten mark in group play at this year's World Cup, marking the first time the American men have finished at the top of their group in 80 years. Team USA lost to Ghana, 2-1, in extra time in their first match of the second round.

The contract extension means Bradley will be at the helm for the Americans for their run through qualifying for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Bradley has compiled a record of 38-21-8 in four years for the U.S. squad. He holds a 10-1-1 mark in Gold Cup matches, including winning the 2007 tournament.

They also reached the championship match of the 2009 Confederations Cup after a 2-0 victory against then top-ranked and current World Cup champions Spain in the semifinal. The Americans then lost to Brazil in the final, but the second- place finish was the best ever for the U.S. men at a FIFA tournament.
