It is still a heart-breaking tie for the US. If they had held on for another 30 seconds they would have already locked up a spot in the next round.

Sorry, but that part is just not interesting. Won't ever be for me. I've had similar lectures on the strategy elements of NASCAR before. I played lots of soccer growing up, but thankfully they ended in shootouts if we tied. No ties in any sport or game. It's non negotiable. Save us the 90 minutes if you're going to tie. It's not a being tough guy thing, it's an entertainment thing. I'm rooting for the US, but I want them go down early every game so they stay on the attack and keep it entertaining. Today's was much better because they couldn't pack it in for most of the match.

maybe just GTFO bro.
 
I went to the first game that real salt lake ever played in rio tinto stadium. I was really excited and had bought great seats.

Final score: 1-1

I left the stadium not knowing if i should be happy or upset or what. Quite a strange feeling and kind of a let down. I didnt enjoy the game ending in a tie.

Maybe i just dont understand soccer like ugli said, but thats my two cents
 
Sooo this puts the USA in a surreal spot...

Americans love game 7's and the game on Thursday is technically that. There is going to be copious amounts of media coverage hyping this game beyond comprehension!!!

If the USA tie or lose against Germany and still advance they have already surpassed expectations by getting out of the "group of death" and cementing themselves as a threat in the soccer/fûtbol world!!

If the USA beats Germany and takes the top seed in "the group of death" they secure themselves as bonafide "Soccer Nation"!!!
 
Today's game was like watching the Jazz in the playoffs.

So close... To only being kicked hard in the nuts at the end.
 
this game against portugal must had 8-9 rating. i think first game did like 7. it's absolutely huge because these games are social events - many are watching in sports bars.
 
I'm going to be watching the US-Germany game from a huge outdoor video stadium in Berlin. Will post pics.
