Game over for USA. A pity that both teams couldn't go through.
 
What a game! The 0-0 90 minutes was pretty good but the half hour of extra time was incredible.

54 shots in the game apparently! Tim Howard made more saves than any keeper in World Cup history tonight. Great stuff. He's been incredible in this World Cup
 
Think I might send Nigel an email about young Yedlin as he can play full back as well


and yes Blaarev its a cracking game.

DeAndre! I loved him for the name (so American) but great performance.

First time all 8 group winners have progressed from the 2nd Round

That's not quite as impressive as it might sound. The format has been such that it could have happened in only the last five of the nineteen tournaments that have taken place.

In the 1966 Finals the winners of each of the four 1st round groups progressed through the quarter finals (the next round then). The winners of Group One eventually beat the winners of Group Two in the final, with the winners of Group Three beating the winners of Group Four in the 3rd/4th place play-off.
 
The young full back looks a player...but there are one or two American players that stunk the place out.

They are close though...just need one or two more pieces.
 
The commentator on the match was saying how many games they'd played over the last year, it's got to have an effect on these things.
 
Yes. They play with a lot more confidence and freedom. We play as though we are carrying a sack of potatoes around everywhere.

They just look fitter, quicker and more energetic than we do. They lack the quality to punish the top teams but the shift that Klinsmann has got them putting in is terrific. If they had a bit more quality in certain areas, as you have mentioned, they would be pushing the giants of World football. It doesn't surprise me that they are performing quite well, once the population gets into the sport a bit more, there will be a lot more American players of genuine quality across the European leagues.
 
1 - 0 to Brazil at half time

'It's next goal wins, isn't it ?' say Chiles

Was really looking forward to that game but it was utterly ruined by a bunch of utter play acting shitheads.


Never seen players going down under a rumour of contact quite like it. Wank

I quite obviously wasn't talking about incidents of that nature.
