Müller is of course a Fußballgott. But Toni Kroos was brilliant today.

 

Right now, I would rate Netherlands performance higher than Germanys. We had some luck today.

Iran Nigeria's been pretty even. Not great football, but they are smaller teams in the tournament.

I had promised myself not to watch the Iran-Nigeria game, as it didn't exactly look promising on paper. Then I broke my promise, watched it for ten minutes and concluded that I had been very much right in not wanting to watch it and turned it off again.

 

Looking forward to the U.S.A.-Ghana game though.

Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.

Bayern Munich Germany was pretty good, but the game was destroyed after Pepe was sent off (red card? really?). Not that Portugal made much effort, though.

 

So far I'm liking Holland and Italy best.

Way to go U.S.A., 0-1 after less than two minutes. I guess no one told Ghana the match had started already, heh.

Oh man, whatever happened to Jozy Altidor, it looks really serious.  I hope it looks worse than it is.

Dempsey just got karate kicked in the nose.

Yeah, poor guy. Might be the end of the tournament for him.

Well, it started off with fireworks, and went downhill from there.

Ghana's shooting will eventually get better.

By the time this game is over no one on the US side will have a hamstring left.

With as many chances as Ghana was getting you had to figure they'd put one in eventually.  That was a really pretty pass and goal.  The US will be lucky if they escape from this game with a point.  

 

Yes!  Yes!  Yes!  I take it back.  Take the 3 points and run!  :w00t:

Oh dear. Well, Ghana deserved it to be honest.

 

Neither team is really helped by this score though, the only one who would like to see this score is Portugal.

Aw that's BS

Well, poor Ghana. Good work by the U.S.A. team though. They certainly saved up all their energy for that one goal.

Better Murrica second in this group than Portugal.

Not impressed by either of them in this. Ghana's passing is awful

It's a shame, but African nations just somehow always bottle when it's time to shine. Even when they have a few really good, talented players who can work magic with the ball either their teams don't gel, or the discipline isn't there, but they just rarely ever manage to live up to their potential.
