US isn't exactly a young team. Not the team they brought at least. A good number of these players will be into their 30's come Brazil.

I'm proud of how well they played considering how poorly out defense was leading up to the cup finals.

Cheers, and good luck tomorrow. Too bad I gotta wake up at 7am to see it but it's a heavyweight matchup!

The beauty of this game just shone through on that uncalled goal for England. If you were playing with your mates you probably would have missed the call too. Such a perfect game. I'm sure the England fans understand that's just the glory of football. Who needs replay or technology when you've got tradition to uphold.

Ghosts of 1966...didn't get the call this time around, though. Glad England finally woke up...Germany was carving up their back line big time. Rooney is frustrated....Germany had their box area sealed up like a vault for most of the half.

But yeah, wow. That ball spun back out of goal.

I'd be happy to see England go down just for pure tabloid fodder, but they got jobbed on the no goal call. That looked like it bounced in twice before Neuer grabbed it.

The US coverage has featured Steve Mcmanaman, Jurgen Klinsman, and Shaun Bartlett doing studio commentary. Kind of weird watching Steve and Jurgen talking about that non goal at halftime.

well, i guess we'll never know whether the ball was in or not

The rout is on. Germany's quality in that last third of the field is on another level from England. The non goal sure looks moot, now. Fantastic run by Ozil and a nice feed for the finish.

dear oh dear... bbc pundits saying our back 4 didn't look like they'd seen eachother before - it was more like they'd never seen a football before.

milner off just as he was starting to get some joy down the right - to be replaced by a left-footed winger?

abject - but the way we've played this tournament, totally unsurprising - any half decent team were going to thrash us...

(bld - the point will always be lost on you, so 'what.ever')
