No way Ghana will defeat us a 3rd straight time in the World Cup, in fact, respectfully, I don’t think they get the draw, USA, 2-1.
Gadzooks, the first game, Brazil/Croatia, is now about 18 hours away.

Just found this, one of Iran's players was born, yes, in America.

America-born Iran defender Steven Beitashour is ignoring political tensions between the two nations as he prepares to fulfil his dream.
The 27-year-old Vancouver Whitecaps defender is in Iran's 23-man squad for the FIFA World Cup, but often fields questions regarding his background and upbringing.
Tensions between the United States and Iran - the native country of Beitashour's parents - have been high for some time, but the player says he does his best to avoid talking about such issues as football draws his full focus.
I'd like to see the defense put up a clean sheet, or get more goals. We need +2 or +3 vs. Ghana if we're thinking to advance with a 1-1-1 group record.
