Brazil World Cup!

Full props for the goal --- but the goal is entirely Bradley's fault. All he has to do is boot it down field, kick it behind to a teammate, kick it out of bounds so the d can reset, or kick it into space. He did none of that. He passed it right to a Portugal player instead.

I wouldn't sleep tonight if I were him.

Lol come on its the USA... I'm surprised they even tied. I was watching the game and honestly the only thing I'd blame Bradley for was missing the 'open goal'.

How can one not blame Bradley for his awful turnover that led to the tie? I'll agree it's a shock result still, a tie for the USA, but when you have a chance to win and advance out of the "Group of Death"...and you turn it over so carelessly, and later say "I have no regrets" as Bradley did...people are going to be salty.

Bradley was awful against Ghana, and made almost as many mistakes vs Portugal. He leaves people flat footed, half his passes are intercepted, he was careless with the ball in the waning moments of the Ghana + Portugal game.

It may be the USA, but it still shouldn't excuse his lack of fundamentals. Ironically he was supposed to be the one surefire thing the team had, he hasn't been. He's been awful.

Bradley made a noob mistake. USA can still win even with a loss to Germany if we are lucky with the group's goal differences.

United States will lose to Germany 2-0, at best, and then Ghana will beat Portugal and advance on GD.

Bradley's noob mistake will never be forgotten.

I agree 100% with Bradley's poor play this series. If anything maybe this game will light a fire under his butt and get him performing like he should.

Sad part is it might be too late my friend, I really hope not.

But even with the goal differential in hand, for right now, I see Ghana beating Portugal.

As for US vs Germany...ugh..could be utter destruction..even with a not braindead Bradley.

There have definitely been crazier upsets. I would say we could get lucky with a tie

US Advances W000000000000000000T

Would have loved a United States equalizer there at the end. Would have gotten them some actual respect from the Germans. You can tell by the German's smirks they don't really respect the United States.

Like that the US advanced but wish they did it on their own play. Didn't like how Wondolowski rode the bench again. But w/e, a 1-0 loss to a far more talented German side is fine with me

I know it was a great final minute, on the edge of my seat the entire time.
