Portugal v Ghana (Group G) Thursday 26th June 2014

[juice_terry]

Will the Ghanaians have any players left ? Will Ronaldo live up to his own hype? Should be an exciting game, probably won't be !

 

[Balbi]

Muntari was already suspended, Boateng came off before the two Germany goals

 

[juice_terry]

Was wondering if anymore would be sent home for indiscipline

Everything will be an anti-climax after gnashergate.

So, Portugal have to win big - and hope USA lose big. Probably need a 4+ goal victory, if USA were to lose by just 1. Can't see it, even wth Ghana in disarray. USA might even get a draw. Ronnie-tears time.

 

[Badgers]

Ronnie-tears time.

I am pleased with this potential outcome

 

[Lo Siento.]

I'm still going with Ghana in this one, as Portugal have been well outplayed in both games they've played so far and I don't think a bit of pre-match kerfuffle will do them that much harm. They've got a World Cup 2nd Round match to play for after all

 

[wtfftw]

I'm having to drink.

 

[Lo Siento.]

another ref who's going to let Portugal break up attack after attack with niggling fouls without booking anyone.

 

[Lo Siento.]

I'm having to drink.

it's been pretty entertaining so far...

 

[Lo Siento.]

Ghana all over this. They don't give a shit that their primadonnas have fucked off home.

 

[wtfftw]

Fucking hell

Why haven't they put this match on BBC3? Its not even on air at the moment, with it being on red button it takes two minutes or more to actually switch over, and it'd be nice to be able to just sitch between the games.

Also my eyes keep trying to focus. Realised it's not in HD.

My massive enthusiam for Ghana has worn off then. Presumably all of them are playing in leagues where they're pulling in at least a few grand a week anyway?

aah, 991 for Virgin. I'd forgotten they did that, cheers

 

[wtfftw]

I didn't know they did that. Ta

Guardian just published a photo of Ghana player kissing bonus cash in the dressing room.

 

[Voley]

Wahey!

 

[dessiato]

1-1!

Ghana are better than Pt at the moment, looks like another "big" team to go out.

 

[belboid]

Picked a great time to switch over

 

[Lo Siento.]

go on Ghana! one more, right?

 

[Lo Siento.]

yup. Ghana scored against Germany. So one more and they'd go through on goals scored... have to imagine Portugal are done now, need a three goal swing...

 

[dessiato]

I suppose that Ghana has nothing to lose and much to win from this game. It'll prove the quality of the players who stayed, if nothing else.

What's wrong with the Pt goalkeeper, apart from they're going out?

 

[dessiato]

US Germany 0-1, looks like US is through and Portugal out
