ROUND OF 16, BABY.

[feuervogel]

The first half of GER:GHA was exciting, even if it was strong defense vs an offense that couldn't get through. Özil hit a beautiful goal partway through the second half. It sailed right past a block of people (from both teams) and the Ghanaian goalie. It was a lucky shot.

Next up: England in the Round of 16 on Sunday. Let's kick some ass (or arse)!

That ref was evil. It's like he was looking for cards to give out. (And, god, yes, Poldi couldn't have hit the broad side of a barn that day.)

I think Ghana's got a good team, and I'm interested to see who wins: to see whether the US team is *actually* good, or just damn lucky.

Well, it should be interesting. Ghana has a suspect offense, and the US has a suspect defense. In any event, I'll be watching.

Me too. I've watched close to all the games so far (though not the simultaneous ones), because I love watching soccer, and I can only do it every four years. Boo.
