**Official USA vs Germany World Cup Match Thread**
USA vs Germany | Recife | Group G | 11 CT | ESPN

This is the big one.

If the United States ties or wins they advance to the knock out stage of the World Cup. There are also scenarios that are not that outlandish that let them move on if they lose but **** those scenarios.

I doubt soccer cares much, and if I was soccer, I sure as hell wouldn't want to be like the NFL or NBA. Bandwagon or not, the support has been pretty nuts... don't see that kind of excitement at P&L on Sunday afternoons.

Some wondered if we were going to score a goal at the World Cup or not. Germany and Portugal, two probably top five teams in the world, and Ghana who has had our number for so long?

I don't think anyone really expected them to advance.

If you are confused about why people are making a big deal about the USA advancing out of the group of death, and celebrating even though they narrowly lost to Germany, then perhaps you should google the topic and read a few stories before spouting off.

Looks like we might've done ourselves a favor today with the way the brackets are shaping up for the single-elimination phase...
Here's what Germany's bracket looks like:

Brazil
Chile

Colombia
Uruguay

France
Nigeria

Germany
(Russia/Algeria)


-------------------------------------------
And here's what our side of the bracket looks like:

Netherlands
Mexico

Costa Rica
Greece

Argentina
Switzerland

Belgium
USA
------------------------------

I've got to say, I like our side more.

Going forward:
Belgium has for the past couple years been considered a "sleeping giant", and there's no denying that there is immense, young talent on that team. However, their play in the World Cup to this point suggests that the Giant may not yet have awoken. We can absolutely play with the Belgians, but will need a tremendous improvement from Michael Bradley to combat the Belgian midfield. If we make it past...

...sure, Argentina's another mammoth task, but they too have struggled to live up to their expectations thus far. A near-draw with Bosnia Herzegovina (who are no schlubs, mind you), and a last-minute bailout from Messi against Iran, suggest that this team is beatable. Messi will be Messi, and there's nothing you can do about it, but the real struggle will be whether Beasley can keep up with DiMaria for 90', because he's a terror on wheels, almost literally, with tremendous pace and ball control. If we get here, I don't expect us to beat Argentina, but IF WE DID...

...we face my odds-on favorite to win the WC, the Netherlands. I really can't come up with any convincing reasons why we could beat them. Even if you drop 5 defenders so Besler and Gonzalez can mark Robben and van Persie, I just don't see us having enough to keep possession for any length of time. Making it this far, though, would be the biggest accomplishment in US Soccer history. It's nice to dream, I guess.

Right. Add into your scenario that there was another ongoing game which another team in your division lost, which sent you to the playoffs. You'd still celebrate a playoff run, even after losing.

So on the day Ann Coulter rips soccer a new one, the US team gets completely embarrassed by Germany. 37% time of possession, 1 shot on goal in 92 minutes of nothingness.


She was obv wrong.

Go away. Another topic that you pretend to know something about.

You're not lying. That service would improve dramatically with the simple ability to choose your video quality, even if it means slight stutters or "buffer breaks". I have no desire to stream a match if its unwatchable due to the "auto-quality" assigned by their app.

I do like the World Cup but that game today was horrendous to watch and anyone saying otherwise is full of it. Germany's keeper made....zero saves today. How can you spend 92 min of soccer without the keeper making ONE save? Nobody can explain that.

Missing our top striker to injury against the best defense and best possession team in the world. Explanation complete.

You take is like saying there is no explanation for why Peytie-pie was shut down in the SB. Sure there is, you just don't understand the game enough to see it.
