Ghana are probably sightly better than Portugal. Excellent midfield and a good attack.

with Donovan's goalscoring record at World Cups there's still a chance

All the USAUSAUSA pundits agree that if they can beat Ghana they've got a great chance to advance.

I have a feeling that Germany will struggle which could make the group even more difficult.
― mizzell, Wednesday, 4 June 2014 18:31 (nine years ago) link
feel like if the US wants to purport to be good at the football they should hang tough with their group.. sink or swim bitches
im glad the first US game is the week after my wedding when I wont be doing a fucking thing.

recant my earlier blasphemies about England perhaps not being *totally* shit. I might turn this game off, don't think it's good for my enthusiasm for the tournament as a whole

I'm assuming the sentence was either "honest challenge" or "the cards were entirely down to Valencia". Xp
― Daniwa, guys! Daniwa! (aldo), Wednesday, 4 June 2014 20:38 (nine years ago) link
Valencia apparently caused both cards by reacting to an honest challenge that might have taken him out of the world cup.

It was only slightly late, like British Rail trains.
Two England players now on the pitch who can't play in a week's time.

Ghanaian witch doctor claims he caused Cristiano Ronaldo’s knee injuryGhana’s most influential witch doctor has claimed he is responsible for the knee injury that is threatening to Cristiano Ronaldo’s participation at the World Cup.Nana Kwaku Bonsam – whose name translates literally as “Devil of Wednesday” – predicted in February that the Real Madrid forward would be forced to miss this summer’s tournament in Brazil with injury. “I know what Cristiano Ronaldo’s injury is about, I’m working on him,” Bonsam, who serves at the Kofioo Kofi shrine, said in an interview with the Kumasi-based Angel FM.“I am very serious about it. Last week, I went around looking for four dogs and I got them to be used in manufacturing a special spirit called Kahwiri Kapam.“I said it four months ago that I will work on Cristiano Ronaldo seriously and rule him out of the World up or at least prevent him from playing against Ghana and the best thing I can do is to keep him out though injury.“This injury can never be cured by any medic, they can never see what is causing the injury because it is spiritual. Today, it is his knee, tomorrow it is his thigh, next day it is something else.”
Ghana’s most influential witch doctor has claimed he is responsible for the knee injury that is threatening to Cristiano Ronaldo’s participation at the World Cup.
