Hopefully Altidore and Gomez link up well up top... I'm really glad they brought Edu in, i'm a big fan of that guy.

There was a fifth official - stood on the grassy knoll - he's the one that disallowed it

well technically we scored, but bogus offsides called.

we are not shooting from far, should have 2 goals(? atleast 1) ... algeria haven't had any real opportunities except on the counter, and not really then either. We have nothing to show for it though

Jozy making me look bad for defending him in that other thread, hammering the ball over from 6 yards.

I honestly believe we'll score in the 2nd half.
