Portugal...USA...doesn't matter if USA goes on they would get knocked out in the Round of 16. One thing about the USA that abdeezy is right about though, the USA have no midfield play and Germany will destroy them for it on Thursday. Keep in mind the biggest asset Germany has is solid midfielders.

That's why Germany is one of the best, if not the best, team in the world. Midfield play. Same with Spain and Brazil.

Germany should beat USA. I'd be shocked if it was a draw or if US won. Ghana beats Portugal, please?!
I'm almost hoping Ghana beats Portugal and USA do not make it. Ghana is a sick team to watch.

They may be fun to watch offensively, but they almost always go in with late challenges and high elbows, it's annoying and dirty.

I'm going with no it wasn't Lol idk was close but in that situation it shouldnt have been,

I think it is close. But, so late on, that is like calling a shooting foul with 1 second to go in basketball.

Right call imho, but it's very hard to see indeed.

hit a post, Howard great save. Ronaldo had a pure break and fired it to the heavens, just like his free kicks. US were taking shots before they reached the Portuguese defensive line, they rarely got threw until the Bradley play. Portugal failed to complete their chances which gave USA motivation and drive to attack and they so they made Portugal pay.
That game can go both ways.
If Cameron makes a simple play he has made hundreds of times, if USA doesn't fall asleep in the last 30 or so seconds, if Bradley finished a wide open net... It's a 3-0 win for USA

Terrible call, you can't call that shit. This world cup is shit cause of these calls and possibly match fixing.

This is why people dont watch soccer, and why it isnt that popular in North America. Too much diving, questionable officiating.

That was not a foul by the way, he tripped over his own foot. Bogus call. Unfortunate for Ivory Coast. 3 years in a row eliminated before knockout stage.

i just watched the replay for the first time since watching the broadcast and there was a lot less contact than i initially thought lol

looks like he tripped over himself tbh
