give it your best shot USA--you never know your luck--reckon you got to win tho--very hard group to get landed in--

this is it really--this is your world cup--lose this and your out (allmost certainly)--so you may as well play as if it were the World Cup Final itself--

Well the USA arrived at the semifinals of a world cup in the 1930, so you never know.:p

What CB said, play it like a world cup final. There is no best- out-of- seven in football. It is best- out- of- one game.
"Geronimo"!!!

World cup history:
1950 USA:England (1:0)
1966 North Korea:Italy (1:0)
2006 USA:Italy (1:0)???

USA needs to score a goal somehow, corner, free-kick, penalty, sheer coincidence.
If Italy scores first, then things get difficult.
Once Italy is in the lead, it is very hard to beat them because they know how to defend their goal very very well as they usually show up with a world class defense.

Good luck, both teams, though my sympathies are with the underdogs from the exotic country

be worth keeping your eye on the Ghana match as well (just about to start) if they can hold the Czech to a draw---then your in with a shot by drawing with Italy and beating Ghana--you HAVE to score tho--at least two or three..goal difference etc--

told you it was worth keeping an eye on Ghana--under two minutes in and it's
Ghana 1
Czech 0
