Sorry bro , pathetic might be a bad word to use. I did see the game and USA did show some heart with only 9 men. The Red Card on the US was a horrible , horrible call. That ref should be banned for good. Even at full strength I don't think the US has any offense. Pathetic no, but certainly not a good team IMO. gl to you bro...Looking for a 3-0 Ghana win
No problem.
Just to give you a heads up here, again Ghana doesnt have much firepower left for this game.
They have 2 goals this WC but both of the goal scorers are out for this one.
Ghanna also would advances with a just a draw here unless the Czechs beat Italy, which I dont see happening w/o Koller in the line up.
If they see Italy up early they will know a draw advances them.
Keller is a world class goalie, I highly doubt he gives up 3 goals again to team with no viable strikers. Remember the goals given up vs the CZE were both by world class offesnsive players, something Ghana now lacks.
I agree the US doenst have much offensive power, but with John O'Brien inserted into the starting midfield the ability of the US to score goes up a whole bunch. O'Brien is probably the most talented player on the US Squad, but he is always hurt, but I am 90% he is going to start.
Also becareful of Beasley breakin out this game. Ghana plays a style the Beasley should excel at, he should find open spaces & cause major problems for Ghana. If the US scores I look for Beasley or Dempsey to find the back of the net.
I think the biggest obstacle for the US is the fatigue factor. I worry about thier ability to recover from the Italy game, but the US is a very fit squad so if anyone team can do it they will.
Again not saying your wrong on Ghana winning, I am not sure yet myself, & think a draw is highly likely, but 3-0 would be a complete shock.
