Regardless of the actual score, I will say this: I will be utterly shocked if the US-Ghana match doesn't have an undeserved penalty for Ghana or an American player being blatantly fouled in the box without a penalty being given.

I agree, it's been obvious for years that there's a conspiracy by FIFA to punish the great United States for soccer not being the main sport

Because it's okay to be behind your team.

I absolutely loathe the general Dutch opinion of downplaying victories and good performances and having good players. Tempering expectations so that we can't ever get disappointed when we fail. The worst quality the Dutch have when it comes to sports (but really anything) is pretending to have humility and not ever showing conviction in our abilities.

If we lose, fine, we lose, but I'll be damned if I'm not gonna be 100% behind The Netherlands as the future World Champion until we're actually out of the running.

Bingo, fuck realism. Stand behind your team no matter what.

The lesson I took from England - Italy is that you need to come out at a brisk pace in the first 20 minutes and then just play behind the ball the rest of the way in Menaus. Let the humidity take its toll.

It's a ridiculous thing to say, but with how fucked FIFA is in general there is really nothing that would surprise me with regard to conspiracies/mandates.

How many Ronaldo dives today?

They are so hard to count. His style is more or less a mixture between constant whining, crying, trying to influence the ref all while being super aware which camera is filming him and diving.

I will see it as a constant dive, starting at 00 and ending at 90 mins or earlier if his hair gets messy and he leaves the field crying.

sooooo 1.
 
lmao I feel bad for USA. Not because of today's match. But the other two lol They MUST win today and Ghana isn't that bad.

Not being confident about some great end-result =/= not standing behind the team.

I am more annoyed by all the super-opportunistic Dutchies who thought Oranje was shit, but after one great game suddenly think they'll become Worldchampions.

En juist die negativiteit is waarom we weer gaan knallen.

Germany will dominate today: 3-0. Can't wait to hear a thicky-accented "Schweinsteiger," "Mueller," or "Klose" repeatedly today. Besides, CR sucks in international play doesn't he?

Ghana on paper isn't that bad, but anything can happen with these officials to throw a card that could change the game. That's mostly what I'm worried about in the game today, that the game will not be decided on the pitch, but by an official.
