Red, white and USA

Berniece Bennett Park in Westlake Village was decorated in red, white and blue for the U.S. Men’s National Team’s opening World Cup match against Paraguay on June 12. The city organized an outdoor viewing on a large screen, and Acorn Newspapers photographer John Loesing captured images from the event.

Several hundred people turned out, with many young fans among the crowd. A local fan, P.O. Peterson of Thousand Oaks, wore team gear for the gathering. Spectators cheered when the U.S. took a 1-0 lead and celebrated as the team finished with a 4-1 victory.
