Just beat Germany and it's good. Simple really

All we need to do is draw. You really don't understand soccer do you?

You don't go out chasing a game for a win in soccer when all you need is a point

I'm glad I put an insurance bet down on the over to offset my stupidity of betting on the US to win. I'll happily break even on the day.

Let's be real guys. Ghana/Portugal needs a ton of help to advance. Portugal needs to absolutely destroy Ghana and Ghana needs to beat a good Portugal team by at least 2 goals

That's what I keep telling myself, but I'm still sick to my stomach.

If we play that way against Germany we will qualify.

I'll be stunned if we don't qualify just based on the goal differential issue. I think even if we lose we'll still advance. The Ghana/Portugal game will be wide open and one team will probably win 3-2

Were in great shape right now and I'm completely happy with the tie. It sucks how we tied, but we NEEDED at least a tie and we got that.

I can't believe they got the tie at the last second. We should have won by 2 between that horrible first allowed goal and Bradley with a wide open net.

Not as simple as something like not fuck up during 5 minutes of added time. Or maybe the first 5 minutes of the match. Either one.... Still too difficult for US soccer.

Bradley was pretty good actually. Cameron was a dumpster fire.

Cameron shit the bed on that first goal for sure, Azusi was not good either. Just need to kill 30 seconds more though in reality and we are headed to the knockout round. Oh well lets just beat Germany Fuck it

Reading before hand people were saying USA just needed 1 goal..well they got 2

No, they said the US needed one POINT, not one goal. Do you have any idea how the game works? I mean they teach 4y/o's how it works. Find one to help you.



pssst, 1 point means a draw (tie).

The GD should get us in, even if we lose vs Germany. Is that the 1st tie breaker? I'd assume it is, but I really have no idea.

No, Ghana needs to beat Portugal by 1 and have the US lose by 1 to tie the goal diff. Then it would come down to goals scored.
