USWNT Defeats Ze Germans 1-0

Why is it that our women's national soccer team can beat the German women's national soccer team, but our men's team can't even come close to beating their German counterparts? Can anyone explain this to me? Hell, the men's team lost to Costa Rica just a couple months ago. I mean, I get it. But all the same, it perplexes me.

It wasn't a particularly pretty game. The one goal came from a cross that pinballed around the box a little before the wily Lynn Williams tucked the ball in goal off a sweet rebound. Otherwise, the match wasn't much to look at but it's a nice win. Oh, and apparently there's something called the SheBelieves Cup.
