LittleHurt05 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Ronaldo actually stayed in the game and due to an injury to a D man, they used their 3rd sub, so he has to play the full 90 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 At this point we just want Germany to keep pouring it on right? As goal differential could possibly be the difference between us and Portugal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've looked the better team for most of the half. Christian Atsu is the best player on the pitch for me. Wouldn't be surprised if USA grind it out for a 1-0 win though. I think Ghana are extremely lacking when it comes to end product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
