Look...i can understand that you're backing your fellow comrades, however it was a clear handball and in the penalty box at that. It was also a clear goal...A good call IMO.

Either way, Ghana is lucky to be in the 16. I'm not saying Australia should be there as we played so disgracefully against Germany and that cooked our goose, so to speak, but Ghana still didn't manage to get a non-penalty goal in three games.

USA to win!

Your logic for why Ghana shouldn't be in the 16 makes no sense (IMO)...If they made no goals, perhaps it's because Kewell handled their one clear goal. At least i understand why you cheer for USA...

I just said they were lucky to be in the 16. There's no should, or shouldn't be anywhere in any of this.

So why do I think I'm cheering for the USA?

Well, for starters, since you're asking yourself...feel free to expound.

Game on....Go Blackstars! Will be truly impressed if Ghana pulls this off...they're playing without their leader Michael Essien, and their captain, Stephen Appiah. Both injured.

Actually id say id be impressed if US pulls this one off...

Ghana dominated pretty much the whole 1st half but it doesn't matter :D

We are back in it yet again ... I hope we can pull it off

Great penalty by Donovan lol

Dannyell 06-26-2010 05:04 PM

Disappointing...we definitely held our own in the 2nd half...

Weak defense...both goals big mistakes by our players...

Ohh well...next one :D

Congrats to Ghana and enjoy the next derbies coming up
