That is U.S. luck. We get the win and have it disallowed. What a crock of shit.

The ref can't even make a good call that the game is over. Nobody knew it ended

Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit! 2 - 2*. We won that fucking game. Get the 1 point, need a draw from England/Algeria.

If England wins out and the US beat Algeria, the US is through -- easiest scenario.

Well shit first half, dominant second half. We should have ended up with three points even after that terrible start. What stupid stupid calls by the ref, multiple times on our free kicks. But we at least still have a chance to advance now.

Wow. That wasn't even close. I just caught the last 15mins. What the fuck was that dude looking at? At least we are still alive need 3 vs Algeria and a draw from England.

Just need a 2-0 win over algeria and a England/Slovenia tie or a 1-0 win and a England win over Slovenia.

if England loses, we would have to beat Algeria. We'd have 5 England 4. If England draws next today, we'd both have 2. Need to beat Algeria and win goal differential if England wins last game.

Yup, you beat me to it, was going to post the same thing. Also, if we whip Algeria, and England beats Algeria but ties Slovenia, we can advance by the goal differential right?

That cocksucking ref cost us the win.

There was nothing even close to offsides on that play and there were two fouls in the box. But the ref decided to disallow the goal. Sort of like he was calling shit wrong all day.

If England wins two, and the US beats Algeria, England wins the group with 7 points, US comes in second with 5. Slovenia would have 4 points in that scenario.

If we come out like today in the 1st half again against Algeria, I'll be pissed. We need to come out with fire like the second half.
