Attacking 45 minutes in these circumstances is near impossible.
You don't want to give up a late goal with 2 men out.

I've never seen this.

The US has been magnificent.

I have to agree. If I were them, I wouldn't be too confident going into the Czech game.

THAT´S IT!!

CONGRATULATIONS USA!!! You did very well and have quite good chances to beat Ghana. Now it´s the question who can recover better, Ghana or the US. For the Italians, this tie is like a defeat.

Well done, very well done!!!
