They should agree to draw.
No point in playing to win and risking injuries. It's not cheating. It's just common sense given how the group has panned out. |

They could all stand still for 90 minutes and I don't think that would be a violation of the rules. |

Amongst Ronaldo charitable acts he has
paid for a childs cancer operation written a letter to a judge on behal fof a fan haircut in tribute to a child fighting cancer He has on numerous occasions spoken out for the Palestinians. Snubbed the Israeli players by not swapping his shirt with them after the match. So hes not all that bad, even if do seem arrogant on the pitch. Anyway, USA all the way for me, my wife is American and even though she ain't a football fan she has watched them even through to 1.00 am. |

1st half will be competitive, 2nd... not so much.
I think the USA can even lose 0-1 and make it through. |

So snubbing fellow professionals for the wrong doings of others is a good thing?

Sadly Ghana have blown it with their result against USA. Really tough group.
I think the first half will be competitive between Germany and USA, then if it's level, they may well settle for a non aggression pact (like Spain and Chile at 2010 W.C - I went to that game and it slowed to a crawl with 20 mins to go). Don't think we'll see, or hope we won't see, anything as obvious as the 1982 Germany-Austria. The Germans will be happy enough to face France. They are their bogey team. |

Portugal will need a 5 goal swing, which is unlikely. |

Ghana is -1 now, USA +1. What would decide if they got both 0 difference and 4 points?

Klinsmann said that he's going to sing both national anthems before the match. And he also said he's going to keep his fingers crossed for Germany's title challenge after the GER v USA match.
I'm not sure what the US public is going to think about hat. |

Can't imagine that'll go down well.

Mueller has had 5 stitches after the massacre with Ghana. Not sure if he wants a football hitting that. Additionally Klinsmann knows the German team set up, their weaknesses and so on. If he puts Germany out, I wouldn't wonder if his passport gets revoked

I'm not sure what the US public is going to think about hat. You want them to do well, but not at the cost of your own team and if you scoring against them relegates them then tough luck. |
