Green should have saved there goal though and apart from that I am struggling to think of another chance the yanks had.
Aye, shame.
I expected Africa to get a few more teams in through, ah well.
European sides aren't doing as well either, Italy and France already out.
Yep seems to be Latin Americas turn of having a good run at the WC
Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, Uruguay and Mexico
European teams left: Germany, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, England and Slovakia.
Actually its more or less even with European teams and the Latin American teams...6 each...then you go 2 Asian teams ie S Korea and Japan...with Ghana and USA filling the last 2 spots.
I think the South American teams are playing much better football and are all in a bit better form.
Saying that, I was quite impressed with how Chile took Spain apart in the first half, and still went in two goals down.
Really pleased for Japan! Honda is a classy player.
Fairly sure that Mexico is in North America
No team has stood out so far. Of the big names Argentina seem to have the most hungry but I am not sure that Maradona will be able to set the team up to counter the better sides.

Schweinsteiger and Cacau are both injured and could miss the match, klose is set to return in time for the match.

Mexico is North America, according to Wikipedia, which surprised me... I would have said Central America, along with Honduras, Guatemala, etc, but apparently not.

Yep and I can see them beating Ghana. Who was it that said the other day something like, and I paraphrase; America are going to do what they do best, **** up a load of small countries and then leave before the job is done?
U.S.A, U.S.A, U.S.A!

The problem with Germany is they only need a draw to progress due to their mentality of thriving on pressure meaning they will always win on penalties. We have to win.
Considering the form of some of our key players this seems unlikely atm.
