Yes, Dejagah is very good. I watched him play every week back when he was at Hertha BSC. Close friend of Kevin Prince Boateng then, who also played for Hertha.
Good news!
Best referees so far have been Mark Geiger of the USA and Howard Webb of England. Someone made a big deal out of Geiger getting two matches prior to Howard Webb getting his first. However, one must keep in mind that Howard Webb has a tremendous reputation within FIFA and this is Geiger’s first World Cup. Howard will get assigned to a couple of very big matches in the knockout phase because everyone knows he is one of the top 2-3 most respected refs in the world. Since he did the final in 2010, it is certain he won’t be assigned the final this year.
Geiger has gotten rave reviews from FIFA and will be rewarded with at least one assignment in the knockout phase; maybe even two.
The Jananese ref who screwed up the Brazil-Croatia match was demoted to fourth official status and the LJ who screwd Mexico out of two goals has been sent home. FIFA does not tolerate incompetence from referees.
You can take the girl out of the trailer park, but.....
Germany conserving energy
This was not on the script.
Ghana really is playing for survival, I may be way way wrong but it seems likely the USA will win tomorrow and if Germany wins today as well, it’s too late for the other two.
Ghana answer right back, well done....
GHANA
BLACK STARS!!!
Not good for the US.
Unbelievable mistakes by the German defense.
If this holds up, the US MUST BEAT Portugal. A tie still puts them in jeopardy.
Dziekuje, Miroslav!
Klose does his salto. He previously said that he was too old for that stuff now.
Klose for the rescue :)
