If we play like we did today. If we come out like the first two games and give up an early goal, we'll go down.

I think the US sits very well. Ghana is a winable game for the US but they cannot start slow, they need to score first and not get down early!!

This is going to be a tough match, but definitely a lot more winnable than Germany.
No more mistakes now, there is no tomorrow. Win or go home.
With that said, Germany's backline today was horrible and they still managed a clean sheet on Ghana, granted Ghana missed a lot of the chances, but still we should be able to win this game.

Mike Tirico and the guys on the set made a great point, Ghana will have the support of Africa behind them against the US.

Any lineup changes Bradley might make for this one?

True, but you can never discount the fact of a nation supporting a team in a KO game. It could definitely give Ghana an "extra" lift.
With that said, the US are the faves and need to play as such. They'll have a good following themselves.
Besides, we owe Ghana a little payback, yes?

As my Brit friend said to me today, this is the best draw the U.S. will ever get into getting into the Semis. No Brazil, Germany, Mexico, Spain, Argentina or Portugal.
That said, can't sleep on Ghana. They had chances today. But, I'm confident our boys can get the job done. It won't be a cake walk, but I think it won't be as tense as today.

Payback, yes. Your Essien can't help you now.

If we get another disallowed goal in this game, I will personally get to SA (I don't know how, but I'll find a way) and punch the official in the bawls. :mad:
