MLS 2014 Week X Continuous PBP Thread [Multiple R]

Ghana and USA were viewed as the rank outsiders in a group with 2 of the top teams in the world. Both have held their own and even had the lead for a time in their games. Even though we're a bit deflated now, we know we can compete and succeed with these guys. We got revenge on Ghana. Portugal gave us a small measure of payback tonight. Ghana did the same to Germany. Now is our chance to beat Germany for what happened in 1998 and 2002

 

US have still never won a world cup match after conceding first, in 21 attempts

 

That would be incorrect.

 

I am going to boo the living hell out of Michael Bradley every single time he comes to KC for the rest of his career.

That was flat bullshit on his part.

 

QFT

 

I don't get how you let someone behind you when you are playing prevent D. You should have been back around the 6 before Ronaldo hits that cross. No need for 3 CBs to be up that high.

 

I'll stand arm in arm with you at Sporting Park.

 

Jurgen Klinsmann: Hey, Joachim, listen, I'm going to need that favor I asked for before.
Joachim Löw: What favor, you sh*thead? My team is going all out to annihilate your team. No scoreline will be large enough.

 

I honestly don't know what to do with myself right now. Loss I'd be annoyed and go out and get dinner. Win I'd be ecstatic and go out and get dinner. I have no clue what I'm supposed to do when we were 5 seconds from advancing.

 

Well, was really hoping we could wrap it up today. The gf isn't going to be happy I'm glued to the tv on our anniversary.

 

After Italy lost to Costa Rica, the teams with the longest World Cup scoring streaks are now Uruguay and the United States at 8 straight games.

 

STOP JINXING THINGS!

and for the record I don't believe in jinxs

 

We were one bad defensive play away from being in a position to win the Group of Death. The United States was in a position to win the Group of Death. Wrap your head around that for a second, if you can. The difference between Belgium and potentially Algeria in the round of 16 was one defensive play away. Now, we'll probably play a snoozer 0-0 draw just to advance.

Balls.

 

I saw something from the #USMNT that had never happened before. Then I saw something that had happened more times than I can count.

For all of my life following the #USMNT, the measure of heartbreak has outweighed the measure of joy. It did so again today.

Confidence boys, Confidence.

 

If a genie had popped out of a bottle and offered you 4 points after two games, you'd have taken that deal in a second.

THIS STILL FCUKING SUCKS!

 

"Looks like we've got a little action on the Bribe Cam."

The Simpsons is giving it good to FIFA.

 

4 points from the first two with Germany winning both of their matches, absolutely. This, no.

 

Being a USA and Union fan has pretty much destroyed that.

 

It has to be said, that for many of those years we were very bad, barely competitive, so going behind first was usual and not winning was usual. So, not finding a win after 21 times going behind, no real surprise.

 

Ouch!

 

No, you would have taken the deal.

No question about it.

 

I meant a Germany-US draw...

 

condition of our injured?? Besler??
