The World Cup Thread

Germany, Ghana, Portugal. REALLY, USA has a snowballs fight in hell to advance
 
Aussie's are not in the group of death, that would be the USA!! We are so fucked it's not even funny. One of our only hope's is that Ronaldo really is not 100% and that might just kill Portugal's chances of moving forward.

Ronaldo is fine. Went down a few times against Ireland, grabbing his knee. Popped right back up as soon as the ball was around him. I'd be more worried about the fact that they scored 5 and he didn't have 1. Granted it was Ireland, but still. Their back line was very questionable at times.

I'll be interested to see how Lahm, Schweinsteiger, & Neuer do after being out for an extended period of time. Plus Reus going out. Depth could be an issue. Thankful that's their 3rd game. If they're secure in moving on, they'll likely rest people.

Boatang has been held out of training for Ghana and Majeed Waris has a quad tear. If he can't go, they lose a lot of speed. Asamoah could be forced to play LB which would be a blessing.

Take heart in the fact that the US ladies just came 4th in the Womens Field Hockey world cup!

Our chances are greater now than they were 2 months ago.

Our defense could not find their way out of a paper bag with both ends cut open and flash lights . That's the part I'm wanting to see Monday, can they get it together in the back end to help protect the goal?
