Having now gotten to see the US:Germany game, I'm very proud. US beat them in every area of the game, better possession, better, more tactical attacking.....US outplayed Germany in every facet of the game.
The Only thing that frustrates me so much is that the damn announcers tried to justify that officals call of no hand-ball, and at first I'd thought it didn't cross the line, but it was a bad camera angle and I honestly think that it may have...but the announcers need to learn what justifies a hand-ball call, and it's not "clearly, that it must be intentional" BS. I'm pretty sure in my 15 years of playing that it has always been either intentional, or it gains an advantage....I'd say stopping a equalizing goal in the World Cup Quarters gains ONE HELL of an advantage...I'm not complaining about the call as much because shit happens..the only difference with it and O'Briens is that I don't think his was intentional and it didn't really gain any advantage...it def didn't stop the ball from crossing the line like that damn Germans, but don't try to rationalize it. ESPN needs to get some new announcers for their soccer games...
Also, yay to Turkey making it through, and what the HELL...how'd S.Korea beat Spain? What is going on this world cup..any more conspiracy theories HBADPi?
