2014 FIFA World Cup: Group G (GER/POR/GHA/USA)

its a shame that I will be missing both games tomorrow due to school. I will be rooting for Portugal to win because they have less of a chance to make it through and I think the US game will be tied, but we will see.

Breaking news: Ghana has ejected Muntari and KP Boateng from the squad. Apparently, they fought with the coach and were thrown out of the team

Muntari would have missed the game anyway (2 yellows) and KPB was a non factor, but I cannot imagine that the locker room is pleasant now.

I'd say the locker room is more pleasant now than before. Those two had the worst body language on the team based on what I saw.

Boateng for sure wont be missed, they will probably be better off without him

Why did Ghana take Boateng to the WC in the first place? He doesn't care about this team and everybody knew it, he's only there for himself.

I agree on Boateng, Muntari at least tried to do something.

That would be fantastic. (Selfish, b/c I'm missing the first half at 11 am)

Hope the US game isn't delayed.

Lot's of flooding reported around the stadium. Heard they could push back both games to 6pm.

All I saw were some selfish long range attempts at hitting the fans in the stands.

I'd def prefer this. Would get to watch the whole game now instead of trying to sneak it at work.

FIFA just released a statement which said the games are very unlikely to be delayed.

Edit: Just saw some pics of the situation in Recife. Wow!

Apparently, both teams struggle to even make their way to the stadium.

Thats would be great if the match got delayed.... put the US game closer to prime time.
Awesome win for the networks if they can/do...

Germany would go crazy if the game is delayed and we'll play after the Group H games.

Incredible loss for the German TV stations if that happens.

they could at least delay it 1-2 hours and still finish the games before group H starts and still keep europe happy
