I hate Brazil. At least I can rub it in your face that we tied you.
Tied who?! Surely you don't mean America... :lol:
If you care to look at the group points I'm sure you'll notice that America beat Ghana *whistle* Not to mention goal differentiation. In which Ghana is quite lacking.

^^^ Oh and lets take a moment to congratulate me on my prediction of a quick German win. Who knew they'd get five goals in under half an hour. Germans be like "But wait! There's more!"


Go home Brazil!! ...oh wait...

I feel like the only person in the world who couldn't care less about the world cup.
Soccer is lower than (American) football on my list of things I enjoy watch/hearing about.

*coughs* Didn't Germany beat you guys? We tied them. What we lacked is goals. In the match against America we dominated 60% to 40%.
America had the same amount of goals we had.

Heh, I don't watch it (although watching it in Spain a couple years ago -where a majority of the people in the room were Spanish- when Spain was playing was rather entertaining). I have a friend who was absolutely glued to the TV watching it, and he would text me whoever was winning, and I was like.... "Wait- I thought the World Cup already ended??" :oops:

Hah. Funny how you think that's the point.
The real point is that we.beat.you. 2-1 in fact. And the first goal was in the first thirty seconds.
Besides that, Germany beat Brazil 7-1, whereas we were able to keep them at a 1-0. That looks pretty impressive to me.

Poor Ghanaians, I say. They didn't even make it to the knock out round. :|
And I agree! Gotze is probably the most celebrated man in Germany currently, no? ;)

I'd say that game was the greatest team versus the greatest player. Germany v. Messi.

Ronaldo is much better than Messi. Messi couldn't even get a goal attempt in the game. Messi isn't really that good, and he hasn't even scored much. Robin from Netherlands is the world opinion now of who should have gotten best player.
Did you know that Ghana kicked America out of the World cup in the quarterfinals, not once but twice? Which is interesting, although Germany beat you guys, we tied them. We also dominated the game with a America. They played counter-strike in the game. Basically what that means is that whenever they got the ball, they made a desperate attempt on our goal. The first goal, I have seen before. An early strike while players are organizing.

Strange though how Messi is rated by professionals as the world's best, and Ronaldo as the second. I suppose you must think your opinion is of more value than their's :roll:
And it's spelled Robben. :geek:

The point though is that we beat you. Shall I say it again? :mrgreen: It is of no concern to me what Ghana did in the past. What I know is what the game tells me. Ghana lost the group and not only that, they were in last place o.o
We also dominated the game with a America. They played counter-strike in the game. Basically what that means is that whenever they got the ball, they made a desperate attempt on our goal. The first goal, I have seen before. An early strike while players are organizing.
Yes, you see, that's usually what soccer players do. They get the ball and attempt to get it into the opposing team's goal. That is the general idea of soccer.
And it seems to me that your players should have been organized before the game started. Not thirty minutes after.

Oh and before I forget. Ghana can also boast an own goal. There's one place where America was thankfully lacking.

Madonna, one of the best soccer players in the world, at least before, said he didn't deserve it. Fifa did it on purpose because Messi does some advertising work for some of the bosses.
And your point about doing well against Germany. We did better than you did. ;)
Ghana would have tied Portugal had it not been that one of our defenders accidently knocked the ball into our goals. And then we should have gotten three penalties and a ton more free kicks but the referee was biased. One of our players was held back when he was turning to take a clear goal shot.

Alright..you and Madonna say so. But the rest of Fifa (a corporation of professionals who KNOW what they're talking about) says it goes to Messi. Who are you to disagree?
Clint Dempsey did A LOT more advertising and he got nothing.
And your point about doing well against Germany. We did better than you did. ;)
That's great for you guys! I'm not going to disagree with that. However, the only thing that mattered then and even NOW is not how well you versed Germany, but how far you got.

Oh please. Don't tell me the referee was biased. You don't know that.
You say should have gotten this and you should have gotten that. If you would have had a good team, you would have gotten it.

Fifa is about money not about soccer. Do you see how many mistakes Fifa has made and how many biased referees there are???
We got about 3 free kick in the game against Portugal. The Portuguese got a lot of them, and they were playing ruff. And free kicks and penalty aren't about how good you are. It is about the other side more so than your side. They are given in accordance to unfair tackles which can easily be proven if you know football.
