Boring or not, we got 6 points. Germany? England? France? Spain? Winning with a cold 1-0 is a victory as well, which is the most important thing. Of course, having a very awesome football to see is better, but not the primary goal.

That was an extremely strong team we faced. They owned the field. They simply owned that match.

Wow, they were much better than anyone here expected. Much better.

As already said, we lack the offensive players and we lack the skills in combination-play, and today we even lacked our quality, the organised defence.

So. Whenever the chance deployed it self today, we sometimes got lucky and deployed the goal.

We had several chances that we blew.

However, we did get a lot of fighting defensive abilities deployed today. Not because we wanted it, but because we faced an opponent who forced us back, again and again and again.

Then again. Somehow. It must be very frustrating for such an offensive team as Cameroon, to experience that their chances over and over lead to no goal.

But, what a discipline they deployed. What a superior discipline. They just kept going on the offensive, sure they had no other option, but still, running as much as they did, cost energy.

Strong players they got, we could learn from that.

Phew!

Mann, i hope our team somehow regain strength to next match.

Serves him right, too. I was reading around on some websites where they were saying that he comes from an anti-American family who claims that early ancestors of his were taken as slaves back in the 17/1800s.

I was thinking the same when watching the match.The referee has to hate the USA people. :D As for his career i'm sure we wont see him again in a big competiton probably some international friendlies, on the other side if USA had won England would of been more screwed, making me more happy because England is the team i don't like in this group.

No way it is. Where did you hear that? It's popularity is definitely on the rise though.

It was on the Post England v USA match on James Cordens World Cup Live (just before they showed the New York Post headline "USA Wins 1-1"). Im guessing "Pee-wee" soccer is what they mean.

Back when I was in highschool, no one ever went to the American Football games, even though our team was good.

Everyone went to the soccer games. Everyone.

England have just been such a huge disappointment. They have one last match to prove them selfs, and if they don't then we don't deserve to even be in the World Cup.
