You seem determined to prove that people who have chosen their nationality are more patriotic than people whose nationality is purely a matter of accident of birth. The most significant result in the group was Germany thumping Portugal 4-0.

You seem determined to prove that people who have chosen their nationality are more patriotic than people whose nationality is purely a matter of accident of birth. The most significant result in the group was Germany thumping Portugal 4-0. I agree with your assessment of the importance of the Germany-Portugal result. The fact is that the US deserved to beat Ghana and then should have defeated Portugal. They could even have snatched a draw in the dying minutes against Germany. Portugal were humbled by Germany and though Ghana did well against the Germans they only managed that one point. Patriotism has nothing to do with my assessment that the US went through on merit. However, I must admit that I was pretty ecstatic on the day with a few minutes left and it was clear that Ghana weren't going to win thus sealing our qualification. I am very happy to now be a US citizen, this is now home and it's natural to get behind the national team. I would have some qualms if, in the unlikely event it happens, Scotland and the US clash in the World Cup.

My daughter has just informed me that I'm more likely to be bitten by Luis Suarez than a shark...

I think they would need to have a single qualifying process with all federations combined for that to happen.

Rewardman you use all the americanisms related to "soccer", so assumed you were a fan of them anyway, regardless of the fact that they've progressed.

Fun times, extra time and penalties kick in... Brazil vs. Chile is coming up, love to see Chile win this and pull a shock result. I didn't think Brazil were at their best in their group matches.

I admit it. I woke up way too early and fell back to sleep. I literally woke up with just five minutes or so left of the first half.
So it's all square at half-time.

No goal for Hulk.
Hope he doesn't get angry. You wouldn't like him when he gets angry.

I think that was the correct call by Howard Webb.
A massive decision when it's against the host nation.

ahh Howard Webb and his team of assistants, generally pretty good but they do have an absolute howler in them!

Great match to watch, love the pace of both teams, Chile looked good towards the end of the second half.

You just can't imagine the tournament losing Brazil at this stage though.
The nation would go into mourning if the exit at this stage.
