Sorry divedude. England stunk it up. USA did not. Thank the Germans or thank England laying down and taking it like the sorry team I said they were all along. That bird of doom loomed large, very large. Morphed into a nasty, rathr large German harpy eagle. Except this time it was on the field, not perched on the net. England thought they were playing Slovenia again?
ghana deserved the win. Obviously they will come out of this thing ranked a lot higher than they went in, very likely above both the USA and England.
USA struggled the whole tournament. Ghana was one of four teams I said to look out for as severe underdogs coming in the others were uruguay, south korea, and Japan.
ghana had a very young team. often it is the young, fearless teams that make deeper runs in the cup
