June 17, 2004

While 14-year U.S. veteran Earnie Stewart has had numerous memorable moments throughout 99 international appearances for the United States, none reaches the height of his game-winning goal against Colombia in the USA's second group match of the 1994 World Cup. On June 22, 1994, before 93,194 fans at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Stewart's strike helped propel the U.S. to a 2-1 victory and into the second round of the tournament, where they would fall 1-0 to eventual champion Brazil.
