Yeah, the only time Mexico can beat our full squad is when they schedule the game in the Mexican mountains at high noon.

You guys may burn me at the stake for this but I do not see how we will get past Ghana. I have watched all three of their games and they are very legit.

Not to mention the 2-1 loss four years ago.

Fuck FIFA. Maybe next World Cup they can have some refs who know WHAT A FUCKING GOAL IS
That ball was over the fucking line, and because it wasn't given, we had to keep pushing up and taking chances, which led to that corner....fucking bullshit.
And fuck Howard Webb.

Mexico sucks I wish we could play them
Uruguay is really good. I doubt the USA can beat them unless they play very very well
Not to be a debbie downer, but the last 3 games vs. Mexico...
1-2 loss in Mexico City
2-0 win in the U.S.
0-5 loss in the U.S.
Defniately would prefer them to Uruguay but hardly a given.

Awesome dive there in the net. Looked like the guy got shot out of a canoon.

Based on the other game headed to a tie, does a draw help Italy?

I still dislike this offsides rule when in close despite what J pointed out to me. Maybe I have too much of a hockey mentality since I believe that, when that close, the onus is on the defense to make the play.
Shame.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME FIFA?????
THREE DISALLOWED GOALS NOW FOR MY TWO TEAMS?!?! MOTHER.....
The goalie should've been sent off, on top of everything, for punching Quag in the face.
Once again, my point is proven--instead of going with playmakers like Quagliarella and Di Natale, he went with Iaquinta and Gilardino for the first two matches. Lippi's senile ass has cost us.

That is on par with the Dempsey offside yesterday for being absolute HORSESHIT calls.
