Landon Donovan Goal Kicks Off Dramatic News Day [VIDEO] (Source: Mashable)

As we reported earlier, today saw the second highest traffic spike in Internet history on the heels of the United States beating Algeria in dramatic fashion to advance to the round of 16 in the World Cup.

It's also been an incredible day elsewhere in sports and current events, featuring another key game at the World Cup between England and Slovenia, the world's longest tennis match ever being played out at Wimbledon, and the resignation of General Stanley McChrystal as U.S. commander in Afghanistan.

The moment that seems to be getting the most buzz, however, continues to be Landon Donovan's goal in the 91st minute of action in the U.S. match, in a video that will no doubt be shared millions of times before all is said and done.

There appears to be a typical copyright and takedown war going on at YouTube, but this clip from ESPN captures the moment for those of you that haven't seen it yet (or want to relive it, many many times). Enjoy:
