Now that was a great game.  Ghana scoring with 7 minutes left and USA scoring off the corner in over time.

I was just about to ask how they were doing, I knew who they played and that there was rain predicted that would affect the game, but didn't know anything the morning news didn't broadcast.


So we (US ) won?

Yeah, 80 minutes in and it was non stop from Ghana.  Our keep must be glad that game is over.  Ghana had some superb handling and could really move the ball where it needed to be, but once it got close to the box they must have been antsy and couldn't land them.  They had a couple of sick long shots though.

Yeah, it looked like they were too anxious when in a scoring position, good to watch anyway... ;)

Luck isn't a constant Dukie, being good is what makes you consistent, i don't mind a bit of luck now and again but in the long term i would rather be good at what ever i'm doing, not lucky, try building an engine relying on luck... ;D :o

If we're referring the the U.S. game, a bouncing header goal scored by a substitute rookie is luck!  We'll take it.

Saw the last 1/2 Mexico versus Brazil may have to change to Mexico, goalie has great reflexes.

A tad disappointing to me. Bosnia looks determined to win. Argentina looks very lazy and sloppy. They'd better find a higher gear for the second half! Should have called up Tevez  :-[
Yes that what Argentina needs!!!
