American Samoa in raptures after first ever Fifa World Cup qualifying win

Until last Tuesday, American Samoa’s national soccer team was mostly known for two things: Being tied with San Marino for last place in FIFA’s ranking system; and for helping Australia set the record for the largest victory in an international soccer match by losing a 2002 World Cup qualifying match 31 to 0. That’s all still true today, but one thing did change on Tuesday: American Samoa snapped a 30-game losing streak, winning its first international soccer match since 1994. Credit for the 2-1 win over Tonga likely goes to head coach Thomas Rongen, who joined American Samoa after being fired from his position as head coach of the Under-20 United States men’s national team back in May. “This is going to be part of soccer history, like the 31-0 (defeat) against Australia was part of history,” said Rongen. American Samoa may just be warming up: Just two days later, the team finished their match against Cook Islands with a tie. They are now one win away from advancing to the second round of World Cup qualifying for the first time in team history.

Boy Submits Resume, Shoplifts

A teenager who applied for a job at a hobby shop in Santa Clarita wanted to sample some of his potential employer’s wares, so he helped himself to an airsoft gun on the way out. It wasn’t all that difficult to track him down, considering he provided the store with his resume, complete with home address and phone number. Asked by KTLA to explain what the hell he was thinking, the unidentified minor had only capricious youth to offer. “Honestly, I wasn’t planning on stealing anything,” he told 5 News’s Carolyn Costello . “I was actually trying to get a job.
