They play better with a little bit of bile in their bellies.

USA really needs to step up their D if they are thinking of winning the WC tho... Algeria had plenty of shots to end the game tonight.

Well, in the end of the game, that was because the game had opened up with the US putting so much on attack. I agree that the defense was weak at times though.

If they get the goal scoring sorted, they wouldn't need to push so hard.

This afternoon I'd love to see Ghana beat Germany and Australia beat Serbia. Then the US plays the Aussies in round 2.

Damn it Algeria, if only they had a decent striker

Hell, if they had put Belhadj as forward it'd prolly have been better lol.
Nice game so far for Ghana-Germany, I had serbians pegged for the second place but now I hope the scores will just stay like that. Ghana has been quite convincing (besides only scoring on penalties

) with a good defense, and it'd be nicer to see Germany pound USA next round

Yeah. I'm hoping not! I think as long as Germany and Ghana don't tie, US won't face the Germans. If Germany wins, they win the group. If they lose, they're out of the tournament and Ghana wins the group. With Australia now up 1-0 over Serbia, Ghana plays the US if they lose or England if the tie or win (and Germany gets the US).

Australia 2-0 now. Still need several more for Goal Differential.

Though the Aussies are now up 2-0. If the Serbs are falling apart and Australia wins 4-0 (and the German-Ghana result holds), Australia faces the US in the final 16!
(Corrected necessary Australia score)

If Germany scores one or two more, that would help too.

As it stands the Aussies need 1 more goal, and for the Germans to score again.....I think

The Aussies will go through on goals scored

Serbia scored. So this is probably going to be Germany in first and Ghana in second for group D.

I feel sorry for Mexico. They play Argentina in the final 16, and if they manage to win there, they'll most likely face Germany in the quarter finals (unless England somehow beats Germany). US gets Ghana and then either Uruguay or South Korea. I'd say the US has somewhat reasonable chances of getting to the semi-finals (not great, but far better than if they played Germany and then Mexico/Argentina!).
