Fuck that shit. Aren't we over hating Germany by now? Consistently great teams and players for 24 years now, ever since Voller/Matthaus/Effie retired.

germany prob most hated in general, but rvp, sneijder, robben, de jong make a compelling case too imo

still england. I mean the last 3 tournaments they've stunk the joint out, and the one before that they didn't even qualify.

Klinnsman is normcore+ today. I dig it berry much
ha i was just thinking this, he's dressed to take the kids to disneyworld.

klinnsman just did a SCHUUUUUULTZ move of frustration there

struggling to give credence to Lawro's utter disbelief at this US policy of leaving men back to ward against the counter, he's just fuckin trolling.

I get the horrible feeling this is going to be tough luck for USA. Portugal doing next to nothing compared to the hard graft of the USA team, but somehow you just know who's going to end up on top after ninety minutes.

Was a great article in, think it was NYT today or yesterday, about Klinsi's normcore khaki's. The writer begged him to wear a suit next time.

What is that glyph in Ronaldo's head, looks like he's lost a bet

portugal will always be weepy drama queen central to me
still have a von bommel hatred hangover with the netherlands though they are p undeniable this time around

It's even worse. He did it without having lost a bet.

meirelles has played at least 3 lazy cross field passes that have almost been cut out, drives me mad.

Ghana should make short work of Portugal if they don't revert to the mindless tactics they used against the US

yah Harrison on the right, Gyan inside right + chelsea kid should shred the left side of this defence

Wait why is everybody allowed to go to the sidelines all of a sudden

ronaldo is moving as if he worked out he's got ten runs in him & is carefully pacing himself
― ogmor, Sunday, 22 June 2014 22:40 (nine years ago) link
Think they must have called this match and agreed to go home
I've seen Beckerman straight up level a Fire player with a headbutt in a relatively meaningless MLS game, he is a fuckin bruiser for sure.

ronaldo must be injured not smoking the defender one on one there
― pandemic, Sunday, 22 June 2014 22:42 (nine years ago) link
The USA are one player short of being quite good, and that player is Beckermann
― avicii usque ad arse (imago), Sunday, 22 June 2014 22:43 (nine years ago) link
Call me unsportsmanlike, but I'd match fix this Beckerman feller to break one of Ronaldo's legs tbh. Wouldn't think twice.

Agree that Beckerman is not rly on this level but the US defense would be worse without him. That said Diskerud would be an interesting addition in the second half.
― dan m, Sunday, 22 June 2014 22:47 (nine years ago) link
Hmm. Finely poised, innit? US on top now but always looking shaky on the break. Have actually wound up being very impressed with Beasley this time, btw - possibly the most composed player on the pitch, Dempsey excepted. Bradley's doing alright too in the midfield bob-a-job role.
― William Bloody Swygart, Sunday, 22 June 2014 22:49 (nine years ago) link
Think USA have quite a decent chance to get a result here actually.
