We are in big trouble.
Both Ghana and Germany are playing with an extra day’s rest.
No kidding! Ghana will beat Portugal. That’s a given. We will be lucky if it is only one goal difference. Then, if Germany beats us by only a goal we will be OK, most likely.
But Bradley’s idiotic lackadaisical lapse at the end of the match means we have to play to win. There’s no guarantees! Had he played hard and kept game awareness 15 more seconds and simply booted the ball into row 23-F he could have rested completely this Thursday, not even mentioning that Jones and Beckerman and Dempsey could all have done with some rest,too. Now they all have to climb back out there and play a game that matters with Germany!
Bradley is the worst thing to happen to the Men’s National Team since Claudio Reyna.

Ever since Ghana got that tie with Germany, I’ve had a bad feeling.
My best case scenario did have the US going 1-1-1, but that assumed that Germany won out. Ghana getting a tie against them threw a monkey wrench into the whole thing.
