USMNT vs. Portugal (In-Game) Thread

Submitted by Mr. Yost on

We had an in-game thread last week and we won.

Thought someone was going to start it, so I'll go ahead and give it a shot and hopefully we can turn our fortunes around.

We went from being the first team in the group to advance to us being in a rather vulnerable position to advance

There's no way the U.S. Beats Germany......what a miserable and disheartening end to this World Cup for us

If the US loses, first hope is for Portugal to win because unless they win by 5+ the US will advance.

If Ghana does win, Ghana advances if they win by 2+ or the US loses by 2+.

Then after that is goals scored. So the US wants as high scoring a loss as possible and as low scoring a win for Ghana as possible.

After that is head-to-head

Portugal doesn't necessarily have win by five.  They just need to make up five goals' difference.  If we lose by 3, they only have to win by 2, and so on.  If we're tied, the team that's scored the most will advance.
