We cant afford loosing players at this rate, 2 substitutions already... (André Almeida was limping at the break) Portugal fitness is just frighteningly low.

Unfortunately I couldn't watch the second half (just a report about it this morning), but it seems the US boys were fighting well.

As for Portugal: I'm not sure what their tactic is, they don't look a lot like the team we are used to. Ok, they got lots of injured players which of course hurts their performance, but not even CR seems to be in good shape.

 

Now let's do the math for group G:

For Portugal to reach the next round, I think the only plausible possibility is that they win against Ghana, with lots of goals, AND Germany must win.

To be precise: If Germany beats the USA 1:0 then Portugal needs a 4:0 against Ghana to advance.

If the USA wins against Germany Portugal needs a 7:0 which seems even more unlikely.

If USA and Germany play a draw, then they both win. I hope they don't play like that. Playing purely defensive will be the best tactic for those two, mathematically.

 

Actually Ghana has it easier, they would need only two goals more than Portugal in the next game (2:0 for example) and a German 1:0 against the USA to advance.

Been reading the comments at the various sites and I wonder if those pundits even watched the game. Too many bashing Ronaldo & team, OK I don't like him as much as I liked Figo as a player but hey:

Yeah, those were the two things he did that I can remember. When he has the ball he can be really brilliant. But for that the rest of the team has to contribute as well, which might have been the problem.

Or pearhaps we are not that lucky when in the referee name, second name, third name or surname there is a "moreno" somewhere :p

 

Italy is out cause of lacking of play, and some bad choices (not only by Prandelli, for sure). Surely we were confused before this event: let's only say that Verratti was going to came back home 2 weeks before the world cup, as part of the 30 - to - 23 selection cut. It's sad cause we did a great European cup and an impressive qualification to this event.

 

After this, even if I loved his play in Liverpool, it's the third time that Suarez has some kind of personality problem that let him to be a dangerous player and person. It's a matter of time before we're going to see worst problem with him.

 

Last bite to Ivanovic was 10 match penalty in the premier league, I hope that this time will come something like 20 or 30, right cause he continously repeating this behaviour, and people like him* shouldn't play such important event seen by million of people and children.

 

Also, it was a really stupid behaviour: Uruguay has to face with Colombia that is one of the best national team at the moment (And I'm sure than Italy would be losing anyway with them...), and Suarez was their MVP.

 

 

*(I'm not talking as a fan: Italian players did crazy things, too... remember Totti who spit on Paulsen?)

The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

With many popular teams out of the world cup I think it will be even more interesting to watch.

Although I will miss some of the more well-known faces, like Pirlo, Balotelli, Rooney and some more. But that's life (and football).

 

 

Also: here another pic about Suárez:

Shame about Suarez - not many seem to consider that Italy's defenders were winding him up for the entire match in the hope that would happen.

 

Not many people snap that way it must be said....
