Klinsman has the USA playing a lot like Germany - your ability to score goals is pretty good so I would not discount the USA beating or drawing with Germany - A win would give you an easier ride in the second phase so it is worth playing for - I think the USA team is better than everyone gives them credit for!
Not necessarily. After yesterday's draw, Belgium might actually finish 2nd in Group H, and would play the Group G winner. I'd rather have, say, Russia or Algeria.
