The 2010 World Cup

[leomac08]

Ya but the US doesn't have much experience in shootouts.

Do you remember the 2005 concacaf gold cup vs panama.....that penalty shootout in giants stadium was so long!!!!!!! But USA came victorious

 

[Burnsey]

I really hope they can pull this off, 30 minutes to do it.

 

[Peace]

Yeah, like that matters!

Well it does a little. It depends on how much the kicker can out psych the goalie.

 

[theITGuy]

Man I hope this doesn't go to a shootout.

If it does the US has the edge with Howard in net...

Ghana looks very tired...

Oh... my...

TBO, I think it would be better not to have experience.... it just tends to rise the pressure. It's usually the "stars" who miss those penalties...

BTW.. Ghana just made 2-1...

Exactly! We're more experienced than most, and look at England's penalty record!

 

[Reventon]

Oooh! Bollocks!

 

[fireshot91]

Yupp, US is out.

 

[Zombie Acorn]

Ghana is taking their sweet time and acting like any touch is hurting them.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Joint worst in World Cup history, probably overall worst by this point tomorrow.

Well, at least we'll top some table then!

Jesus christ talk about walking the clock down. ****er falls by himself and then takes up time to get stretchered off the field, soon as its over he gets off the stretcher.

All other nations cower in the face of our sporting ineptitude.

They've learned a lot from looking at the CL..

Adequate time looks to have been added on for the delay...

 

[fireshot91]

Lol....what was Howard doing on that corner kick?

 

[Fizzoid]

Lol....what was Howard doing on that corner kick?

He looked like he was trying to punch it away!

Well, we'll see you boys in the departure lounge tomorrow then

 

[MacsRgr8]

Good to see that the coach of USA is sporting... not like that d*ckhead of Italy.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

An African team in the quarters then — commiserations to our resident Americans.

 

[niuniu]

Oh hello Ghana

 

[fireshot91]

He looked like he was trying to punch it away!

Yeah...he truly did.


The goalie isn't allowed to touch the ball with his hand in the other side's box right? I mean..I don't quite know as I've never seen anybody do that..

 

[awmazz]

0 from 2 for my predictions so far. See if I can go 0 from 16.

Altidore should have stayed on his feet and scored the goal Gyan ended up scoring. He coulda been a hero.

 

[Reventon]

 

[Tilpots]

So disappointing. Too many mistakes.
