Houston Dynamo midfielder Clark still coming down from Confed Cup experience

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Sat, 07/04/2009 - 08:06

Houston Dynamo midfielder Ricardo Clark admits he's still pinching himself over his Confederations Cup success with the USA.

Clark wasn’t included in the original Confederations roster, getting the nod only after fellow midfielder Maurice Edu had to be scratched because of injury.

"It was amazing," Clark, 26, told the Houston Chronicle. "From the first game to when we advanced to the second round to the finals, everything was just great about it. It was unbelievable.

"Not too many people in their soccer careers get the chance to play in a big tournament like that."

Clark revealed he swapped jerseys with Real Madrid star Kaka at the end of a memorable final.
