***USA v Portugal, The Offical Match thread***

[Husty]

The Cheeky Winker missed out on the celebrations didn't he?

He's too crocked to run across the pitch to celebrate, needs to conserve whatever comprises his leg.

Amazing the number of German-Americans in the US squad. Quite controversial back home, it seems.

You'd expect the Americans to be amazing at penalties.

Poor Merieles. I worry for his health. That looked brutal.

Electric, lethal, aerial bombardments, bombing forward etc.

Just because he can

To use the US term - "haters gonna hate"

Please, never thrust Americanisms onto me ever again

 

[Frutos]

What has that tit done to his hair?

USA's number 19 looks like a young Roger Federer.

Portugal have never won a world cup... and we think were unlucky only winning it once!

 

[perseus]

USA are making a better fist of it than England.

Oh look, the Americans have called a time out. Awesome.

 

[Weststander]

Portugal wins, and we are told tomorrow that Ronaldo and Nani are amazing .... BBC/ITV media hype to try and lump them in with Muller, Messi and co in this festival of football.
Cannot see Portugal winning the WC or getting anywhere close - France, Germany appear to be a team of 11 good to great players, something Portugal are not.

 

[Bedsex]

Good goal

Deserved USA goal. Lovely shot too!

Marvelous scenes in Times Square. Great equalizer by Jones.

I want Tim Howard to play for us.

Any chance of posting a pic? Love to see it.

I always get the impression that our American cousins are still a little, meh, when it comes to soccer. Sounds like, hopefully, I'm wrong.

The yanks in the crowd certainly enjoyed that equaliser.

 

[Justice]

Americans now better at football than England

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

2-1 go usa !!
