I know nothing about soccer, but is it just me or is the ball spending entirely too much time on U.S's half of the field? It just seems like you're asking for something bad to happen when the ball is continually close to your own goal.

why does when we get hard fouls, they call a yellow on us, but when Ghana does it, they don't get a card at all?

Iggy, it definitely isn't a good thing. Especially with this team. The only knock on Ghana has been their ability to finish around the goal so the U.S. definitely can't play on their heels so much or they might get burned again.

I don't get that either, the guy came in at Dempsey's knees and no attempt at the ball. Must be part of FIFA ref training to call offside on our goals and the hard fouls rather than yellows

We can not go down 2 goals again. We will not have another comeback, not in this round. Our defense needs to start stepping up.

Altidore has had a subpar World Cup... Tough to knock him though being only 20 and having so much potential

U.S. down early???? Shocking. I missed the goal but I thought the English guy said Howard fault. THAT really is a suprise.

Wouldn't have been the hardest ball to save but Clark gave it away at midfield which sprung the Ghana goal

GAH! I can't believe he didn't put that into the back of the net! We absolutely suck at finishing.

The U.S. team doesn't make it easy to watch their games.
