we can smell gas. and it's pro pain from tanks like these that are leaking, and they are keeping residents away. you can see this town was hit terribly hard. the destruction goes at least another half mile that way. the newspaper this morning described it quite well saying it looks like god used two fingernails to scratch the land. >> oh, dear god. >> reporter: families here in pilger, nebraska, were praying for mercy. >> oh. another tornado. >> reporter: as two massive tornadoes nearly erased their town. one of them nearly a mile wide. >> ripping up a whole town. >> reporter: take a look again, a two-headed monster. everyone here, nearly 400 people had to be evacuated. >> we have multi-tornadoes on the ground here. >> reporter: the twisters crisscrossed highways and narrowly missed cars on the road. >> oh, gosh. >> reporter: here's the moment when the giant cloud of debris just misses the city's water tower.

the ground here. i've never seen anything like this and i've been storm chasing for probably 10 to 12 years professionally and this is just very, very dangerous. hey, guys, get inside, please. get inside, please. we're just trying to get this information to you so you can get it out to the folks in this area and protect their lives and property. >> such incredible images especially the two twisters side by side like that. there's a threat of more severe weather today. 44 million people in the path of that and amy freeze from our station in new york, wabc is tracking it for us. good morning, amy. >> there's a reason for people to be on guard. this was a particularly dangerous situation. the dual or twin tornadoes are also known as satellite tornadoes. they actually have multiple vortices inside and you can see on the imagery the evidence of these violent turbulent wind fields that usually expands the damage. so really, really serious situation. still we have a lot of activity going on. this tornado watch box goes until 9:00 a.m. chicago included in that and there is a bow form to some of these storms so very potent. 14 states remain under the threat of severe weather today.

we'll have much more on this coming up in just a few minutes. george. >> big part of the country under the threat, amy. thanks. to the crisis in iraq. american troops are guarding the u.s. embassy right now. more are on the way as president obama prepares his next moves and the brutal islamic militant group gains more ground moving closer to baghdad. abc's martha raddatz is there with the latest this morning. good morning, martha. >> reporter: good morning, george. the focus of the u.s. right now protecting american personnel in the u.s. embassy. the focus of the iraqis, defending their country. this morning, with reports that jihadist fighters have taken control of parts of baqubah just 37 miles from baghdad young iraqi men lined the street markets scrambling to find discarded u.s. and iraqi military gear so they could join the fight to defend their city. this as president obama has told congress he will send as many as 275 soldiers and marines to iraq

and the region to protect u.s. embassy personnel here. more than 100 are already here to help secure the $700 million fortress, the size of 80 football fields built to withstand attacks. the president is also considering sending up to 100 u.s. special forces to help advise iraqi troops. with numerous iraqi cities captured, the president keeping all options open. a u.s. warship now on the move equipped with five osprey, tilt rotor aircraft to be used in any evacuation. but if the u.s. it ises decides attack, more options. an aircraft carrier in the persian gulf capable of launching 40 fighter jets to strike isis militants. there are also two additional u.s. warships nearby able to launch cruise missiles. and the u.s. still considering further talks with iran about how to push the militants back, but this would not involve any military coordination.

secretary of state john kerry telling yahoo!'s katie couric -- >> i think we are open to any constructive process here that could minimize the violence, hold iraq together, the integrity of the country, and eliminate the presence of outside terrorist forces. >> reporter: of course, the violence continues here right in baghdad. a bomb going off right where those young men were buying military equipment. george? >> okay, martha, thanks. more now on the president's big decision from abc's jon karl at the white house and, jon, the president is under great pressure to act quickly and met with his national security team last night for several hours and as martha suggested a wide range of options on the table. >> reporter: yeah, the military leadership presented him with options ranging at the low end to sending those about 100 special operation forces to iraq simply to advise and to train the iraqi military. at the high end would be a

full-scale u.s. bombing campaign against militant targets in northern iraq. expecting a decision from the president on this quite soon, george. meanwhile, as you heard martha report, the president's already notified congress he is sending 275 troops to the region to defend the embassy, so we are already seeing the flow of u.s. forces back into iraq. but the white house is saying over and over again, this is not for combat. these will not be combat troops. >> and the white house also talking about working with iran who has been an adversary. what might that cooperation look like? >> reporter: well, the way the white house looks at this is that iran is the one force in the region that has influence with the government of prime minister maliki, so what the u.s. is asking iran to do and hoping iran will do is to pressure maliki to do some political reconciliation at the heart of this whole problem. >> okay, jon, thanks, the decision soon but not likely today. >> okay there, george. now to the world cup and that thrilling victory for team

usa, avenging losses to ghana in the last two world cups. and we're going to show you an exhausted team usa arriving back to their hotel early, early this morning. oh, abc's bob woodruff has all the dramatic details from rio, good morning, bob. >> reporter: well, good morning, robin. yeah, an amazing might last night. you missed the party right down here on the beach where i actually lost my voice, but there's no doubt about the united states because we are in what's called the group of death. but last night, they certainly did not die, in fact, they made their point within half a minute. ♪ just 29 seconds into the game -- >> dempsey scores. the u.s. ahead incredibly within seconds! >> reporter: team usa captain clint dempsey takes it to the house. >> the absolute perfect start to the 2014 world cup. >> reporter: the earliest u.s. goal in world cup history, the fifth earliest ever in the world cup tournament.

the electricity felt back home. crowds gathering in cities like chicago, brooklyn, baltimore, even our soldiers overseas in afghanistan on their feet. here in rio, we jumped and took selfies. >> this is what i have been praying about all day. just trying to step up for the team, and that's what i was able to do today. >> reporter: but minutes later the thrills turning to chills. >> oh, no. >> now that is a problem. >> team usa star striker jozy altidore straining his left hamstring taking him out of the game. then this -- >> oh, that hurt from here. >> dempsey down, his nose busted and bleeding. then late in the second half -- >> it's a goal it break american hearts. >> reporter: ghana punching one in to tie the game. then the i believe moment. >> it's brooks for the usa. >> reporter: defenseman rookie

substitute john brooks with an incredible header to take the lead and ultimately win the game. >> payback for the usa. >> u.s. team always has a great spirit and fights until the last second so it was a wonderful one at the end of the day. >> reporter: caught up with the still excited team back at their hotel. >> to be able to walk out on to a field in brazil and have such amazing support from our american fans was incredible. >> reporter: so remarkably john brooks says several days ago he had a dream that he was going to end this game by scoring and winning it for his team. well, it turns out it was true. robin. >> all right, bob, thank you very much. you can tell by his voice that he's been screaming a little bit out there. long night for bob. we'll stay in rio and talk to espn soccer analyst and former u.s. national team star alexi lalas. when we talked to you yesterday, you said this usa team is different from the one that lost

in the last two world cups to ghana. all i can say is, boy, were you right, alexi. >> to a certain extent they are different, but when i look at this game it was awesome. was it progressive? was it new? absolutely not, but i don't care. it was traditional. it was american in that the u.s. didn't have a lot of possession. they defended like banshees. they relied on set pieces. jozy altidore going down. clint dempsey breaking his nose and in that sense for me it was beautiful. they got three points against a team that played better than them, but that's the only thing that matters is they got three points so, yes, for me it was a beautiful performance. you don't get to tell me what a beautiful woman is. you don't get to tell me what a beautiful song is, or what a beautiful win is, i get to decide, and that was a beautiful performance. that was america. >> ah, i love -- what's not to love about you, alexi. let's talk a little bit more about the group. they have portugal that they'll play on sunday. just tell us a little bit about that matchup.

>> well, look, portugal is a great team. we know about cristiano ronaldo, ed fact is that portugal went out in their first game and got she lacked by germany. it could come down to the goal differential. there were a few injuries and a red card for portugal so they'll be missing some of their key players, but i tell you what, i think we'll see a better performance from the u.s. in terms of possession against portugal. but just because you beat ghana doesn't mean you've gotten through the group and have to figure out a way to beat a very good portugal team and have a good performance and a better performance against portugal. >> this has to give them confidence, alexi. >> absolutely, absolutely. how about john brooks? if you had told me, i don't know, a couple months ago john brooks would be on the team yet let alone score that goal, i would have said you're crazy. but that's what the world cup is about. it can change your life and did for john last night. >> he had a dream about it. we'll talk to him later. alexi, enjoy your day there. thanks for stopping by. we appreciate it. >> thank you very much. >> all right, espn has a triple

header of world cup action starting at 11:30 eastern. and let's get the rest of the morning's top stories. alexi -- he's in his glory right now. >> you don't get to tell him what a beautiful girl looks like. that was great. great line from alexi. we begin now with the breaking news, guys, good morning to everyone. some wildfires driving hundreds of people from their homes out west. a fire in new mexico has ballooned to 17 square miles forcing new evacuations and gusty winds sending smoke and haze all the way to the denver area. and a wildfire that destroyed three homes near bakebakersfiel, california, is now 50% contained so evacuation orders have been lifted in that area. and just miles from that fire a race against time. a desperate search for a firefighter who has not been seen in four days. 34-year-old mike herdman was camping when his dog ran off. herdman went after the dog wearing just a t-shirt and shorts, and he never returned in temperatures in that area at night have been in the low 40s so that search continues.

text messages this he say support their case. prosecutors saying that the football star engaged in a pattern of violence after nightclub disputes. also alleging that hernandez shot his one-time friend skpder bradley in a car. bradley survived that shooting. >> wakes up, finds a gun in his face. the gun discharges, goes through his hand right between his eyes. the defendant pulls him out, it's an industrial area. leaves him essentially to die. >> reporter: hernandez's attorney arguing against linking the lloyd and bradley shootings. >> what are the other similarities other than it's a shooting and both of them were friends of his. >> reporter: hernandez who is currently behind bars is also facing more legal trouble pleading not guilty to assault and battery charges along with aggravated harassment for allegedly attacking a handcuffed inmate and threatening to kill a guard during a jailhouse fight. the judge hasn't yet ruled on this motion to dismiss the lloyd case but it's the legal equivalent of a hail mary pass
