USA v Italy, 17.06.06I remember this match and the blood streaming from McBride's face.
World Cup 2006 and in a close-fought group match against Italy, Brian was the victim of a vicious elbow from Daniele de Rossi. Rather than theatrically writhing on the floor like many players would, he picked himself up, jogged to the sidelines for stitches and returned to lead the line for the remaining 60-plus minutes of the match.
Classic toughness.
