    Christ, this game is giving me anxiety. Ghana has been playing so much tighter than we have the entire game. Every time we break away, someone launches a ridiculous through ball to nowhere or passes it right to a Ghanaian foot. It's like a teenage boy blowing his load while looking at the thumbnails on a porn video site.

    Wow. Ghana is cutting through their defenses like it's nothing. If Ghana wasn't channeling England's accuracy, this would easily be Ghana's game. o.o

    EDIT: Holy cow. That was perfect. o.o

    I think there is about 17 of us, and 6 are on eoff.

    But really. I didn't get to watch the game until the second half because I was showing off my house to potential next renters for my landlord. But I was listening from about six minutes in.
    Omg, Ghana you scary. So many close calls. SO MANY. Thanks for defying gravity 70,000 times.

    Yes, the sport is very much growing in popularity. It's never going to be #1 (and tbh, who cares? "my sport is better than your sport!" pissing contests are lame) but I've noticed online a growing American presence of some very knowledgeable fans. Well, almost. For some reason Americans think Jozy Altidore isn't abysmal xD Sorry Americans, but he really is.

    I don't know how popular the US MLS is over there, I think I have seen more American interest in European leagues - particularly the English Premier League presumably due to the language. I've also never really seen them care much about the US team in World Cup Qualifying or the CONCACAF Gold Cup, but then there are not many good teams in North America to compete with so I suppose both are gimmes and I assume not all that exciting.

    Good result for the US. If they play for draws with Ronaldo and Germany and keep it nice and tight at the back they should be able to pull off an upset and qualify ahead of Ronaldo. On yesterday's evidence the rest of Portugal didn't turn up to the World Cup!

    I work with an Algerian guy called Farid, we went drinking today and were talking about this match. I predicted a 3-0 win for Belgium but I would be super stoked for him if Algeria won so I hope the scoreline stays the same and he can give me full on trout tomorrow for being wrong.

    Andy Townsend is pro-Belgium. You can tell because he used his "Better" phrase which he usually only reserves for England or English teams in the CL.

    EDIT: And his other variation, "That's better" followed in short order. Reckon Andy has a sly tenner on the Red Devils.
