Quillback Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Costa Rica beat Italy - didn't see that coming. England has been eliminated which is also surprising.
moguy1973 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Germany had to fight for a draw today against Ghana. Didn't see that coming. Makes it that much easier for the US to move to the next round. -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson
Jerry Rapp Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 would Ghana's players be better off w/o Mohawks? Ghana has some excellent athletes. A few linebackers on the team. I am sure some could kick a 70 yard field goal.
Quillback Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 US beats Ghana, but Ghana ties Germany? Maybe there's hope for the US vs Germany. US really needs to beat Portugal tomorrow.
Seth Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 That was a crazy game! I can't believe the US gave up a goal in the last 30 seconds!
GloryDaze Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Think of how exciting that game would have been in overtime or even shoot outs. Hence the problem I have watching soccer, great game with no result. As my buddy always says, a tie is like kissing your sister, it's just flat out wrong and doesn't make any sense.

It just put that much more importance on the Germany game. if Ghana beats portugal and we lost to germany we are out. If we tie germany and ghana wins it will come down to goal differential. we can lose and still move on if portugal can beat ghana by only a goal, maybe two. Thursdays game will just be that much better now.
ollie Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 What a friggin game!! We played well I thought except of course for the 2 bone head goals we gave up. Why? Our D sucks that's why. Like the fact we still have a good chance, but we should have finished that game out with a win. Sorry you other guys don't see the action in the beautiful game. "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
Quillback Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Aaaarrrggghhhh! US scored that 2nd goal, then they just went back on their heels and let Portugal control the ball. I knew Portugal was going to score, then as time was getting close to running out it looked like they were going to get away with the win. Aaaarrrrgghhhhh!

And what's with the writhing in pain when you get bumped and fall down? I've never understood that. I've seen REAL football players get a limb snapped in two, get up and run/hop off the field.
