Team USA's John Brooks saw game-winning header coming in his dreams

Posted Jun 17, 2014
As dreams go, the one John Brooks had on Saturday night was pretty darn improbable. Brooks, a back-up central defender who wasn’t expected to see playing time in this World Cup and who rarely ventures out of his own half of the field, dreamed that he would come on as substitute and score the winning goal against Ghana. On Monday night, somehow, against all odds and with the United States on the ropes, that is exactly what he did. (Yahoo! Sports)
