Tired and Italy looks like they would be satisfied with a draw.

They made up for the Czechoslovakia debacle with this game. They're playing tremendously for being down a man to Italy. Win, lose or draw, a brave performance.

I'm totally impressed. Go USA!

Can you hear it from the ranks? USA, USA, USA!

I think, with a man down, the US would be happy with a point, too. Great effort.

You told me earlier on this thread. I answered you.

The German fans now shout "Steht auf wenn ihr Deutsche seid" (Stand up if you´re German).

Wow, thanks. I didn't realize USA will get to play another game.

Still want them to win and not count on backing in!

You were wrong. And we don't care what the Germans say.

What's wrong with McBride? He's fanned on a couple of great opportunities. He should be taken out.

Me too, and I have neither bet money on this game nor is it my national team here.

McBride missed position on the far post for the header.
Great damn run on the right. Absolutely great.

Hang on US.

My vote for Man of the Match is the Referee.

I don't have a problem with his calls actually, except for the straight red to Mastrioni. That was ridiculous.
