They need to stop showing that replay. Im getting fucking pissed. We got absolutely cheated.

It's weird because he called it right away as soon as the ball was touched. It's not like he called it after. Very strange as I cannot see anything.

I think he was trying to call offsides? But the thing is, he really didnt say. Either way, its a horrid call. I dont know. Its just... as a ref, the one thing you dont want to do is decide teh outcome of a game. When in doubt, let them play, ya know?

It's a tie. Bradley saved USA! His dad can now beat up critics with a rolled up newspaper.

Well, it's over. At least it's a tied game and they didn't lose, so I'm not as dissapointed.

Riiiiiiiiiiged!

I doubt that. I'm sure they would rather have the US through than Slovenia. :hmm: Pretty amazing the US came back at all though, congrats to them, but boo on their defense for getting them down in the first place.

Fortunately I picked a draw, so I get a point. :awe:

i wouldnt worry too much, you guys will still most likely go through. The US has 2 points and has yet to play the weakest team in the group Algeria. Win against them and you end with 5 points which should be enough to qualify.

Damn, so close to victory after such crap in the beginning. Now we just need to make sure we don't choke for half the next game and hope the brits can knock off the slovs. Assuming the brits don't lose or tie their game against algeria, that would end with 2 teams tied for the second advance position. Wonder how they figure tie breakers here.
