PRETORIA, South Africa – Landon Donovan could not hold back the tears as he described his “Hollywood moment,” but even Tinseltown couldn’t have dreamed up an ending quite this epic.
It had all the ingredients of a blockbuster movie with drama, thrills and maybe even a remarkable love story after Donovan blew an on-camera kiss to his former wife, actress Bianca Kajlich.
Minutes earlier, with one flick of his right boot, Donovan was cast as the hero after sealing the most dramatic victory in United States men’s soccer history on Wednesday night with a stoppage-time goal in a 1-0 win over Algeria that sent the team into the World Cup’s round of 16.
But perhaps the greatest prize of all awaits. Donovan has made no secret of his regret at the way his relationship to Kajlich, who stars on the TV show “Rules of Engagement,” broke down last year. His post-goal kiss and reference to Kajlich will have the entertainment tabloids speculating about a fairytale reconciliation. |
