What a thoroughly enjoyable game. What America lack in quality they more than make up for in 'fuck yeah'.
Our lack of fitness is quite troubling though. Considering we are one of the least technically gifted teams in the tournament, you would think it'd be a priority to be among the most fit.

I loved Jurgen. I don't like his German American accent. Germerican if you like.

Lets be honest, if Ghana had shown a little more composure and nous in and around their box they could of battered them.

Pity for Ghana as they will cause Potugal more problems than the USA.

Decent result for Portugal that.

had it ended 1-0 Id say undeserved but to come right back and win I say go USA. Klinsmann interview shown here in the States and he looks like a proud papa of a new baby boy.

Lol all you typical brits saying undeserved win or feeling sorry for ghana. Fuck that noise. Great win. Very deserved win. Ghana played like scumbags. Foul soooo much. Muntari's yellow should have been his 2nd yellow. Dont let facts get in tje way of your hatred and jealousy of America though(y)

AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!

Really enjoyed that game, picked Ghana to support before the match and watching them get so close but then lose it was upsetting. But fair play to the USA, got back in their and did what they had to do. Ghana for all their speed and stamina just had the final touch of well, Townsend. Can't help but think of how this will help football in the US to.

The lack of fitness in the US squad is worrying though.

Our midfield was terrible today. Could not keep the ball. Bradley better get his shit together. Worst game I've seen him play in some time. Loss of Altidore is bad. Say what you will about his club form, he has been fantastic in some big games for the US recently. Typical American team getting a win that they probably shouldn't have.

So far this is going exactly to play for the US to have any chance to advance. They need to get a point against Portugal and try to get through a group like this

GER 9
USA 4
POR 4 (or 1)
GHA 3 (or 0)

US goes though on the GD from the Germany thrashing today. Overall a good day for the US. They gave themselves a chance.
