Thing is, even if the US advanced they'd probably get shelled when they played a good team. They just aren't organized enough to pull it off it seems.

I'm going for Ghana to some extent, would love to see an African nation make it further in the cup.

Any guesses as to what the final will be? Brazil vs. _______?

Sorry for the dose of reality... so you're saying they have a crack at the final, much less winning it? lol.

Now you can get back to chanting U-S-A, U-S-A!

I admittedly know little about Soccer. Can someone tell me what constitutes a penalty and what doesn't? Some of these 'tackles' look just like the penalty's

if defender makes contact with ball before making contact with the ball carrier, the tackle is clean

these dives and laying down are getting ridiculous. I can't believe the ref is allowing this junk. They're diving left and right, sometimes without even getting touched.

The better team on this day won this time. The US squad had their chances late in regulation and didn't get it done. Ghana controlled the extra time and deserved the win.

It still sucks.
