USA vs Portugal

[bksballer89]

Guys look at the positive. At halftime all of us would've accepted a draw. We got greedy once Dempsey scored but I don't think any of us expected a win at the half

Bradley gave the ball away far too much towards the end.

And a draw in the US / Germany game would put them both through. Can't see either side playing for a draw somehow though.

You would think an experienced player like Bradley would know clock situation and not fiddle around with the ball right in the middle of the field like that

He would have been better off just bombing it deep out of bounce for a throw in deep on their side of the field or a goal kick

Sounds like everyone is a winner today guys! Beer with the Portuguese!!

Do you not understand the grand scheme of things? I mean it's one thing to be mad we tied, because we all are...but it's another to say you would of rather lost. That's just retarded.

Un-fucking-real.


5 minutes of stoppage time was BS.

The Americans who didn't root for team USA, Guantanamo Bay for ya all.

There's a big difference between not rooting for them and thinking they didn't have a chance of winning. I pulled for them all the way, but didn't think it was going to be our day. US actually played better than I thought they would, but was right that we wouldn't win. Does that make me happy? Of course not. Obviously we would rather have a win.

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.

Yeah it is. We'll be fine unless Germany destroys us and even then we will be good unless Ghana wins. Were almost guarantee a spot even with a L once Ghana doesn't win

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

Cameron played an awful, awful game! He is actually the reason we didn't win!

Bradley had a great game and was top 4-5 on the team. It was a nice improvement from the first game. I would be happy if he played like that in the next game.

Yeah I'm trying to see the positive light too. Just feels really deflating. Was ready to celebrate the US advancing and now we have to bite our nails and wait to see the results of Ghana-Portugal

 

[podsox]

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.

h2h doesn't play a role? kinda stupid

No I get it! Everyone's a winner! Team snacks were handed out and both teams get congratulated! Great 95 minutes of my life!

We should be set, but a tie vs Germany should be the realistic goal.

It does, it's just down the list of tiebreakers. I agree that it's silly, but it is what it is.

 

[Jonas_steven]

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

We are sitting pretty. Just need to take care of business!

Bradley seemed hit or miss. He made a lot of boneheaded passes and created some good chances.

Fuck off OD...go jack off to yer Channing Tatum poster.

 

[romeo212000]

No I follow sports where you win or lose...not this tie = points BS

Then fuck off out of here.

You're just being dumb...and butt hurt.

I see why they call this the group of death. The 2nd round of play in this group has been amazing
