Klinsmann has given USA the same stability Bradley provided- I reckon they can beat Portugal and get to the semi finals.

Why are we talking about USA "football" again?

it should be obvious that we're talking about soccer, I mean look at the title. I don't even think football has a World Cup and even if it has, is it even this year and last but surely the most important one. football has nothing to do with the FIFA

Actually Luigi, we are talking about football. The fact they call a sport where they use their hands to throw a weirdly shaped ball with their hands football just doesn't make sense...  (I do like american football though ) |

I think it's called football because the "ball" is a foot long. |

or maybe, because the ball has the shape of a foot...ok there are massive amounts of imagination involved...but just try to imagine a foot, and a "football" and then compare them with each other!

That American Football is called football because of Rugby football (the best football you can see).
But they kick the ball in American Football.. but not that much - so they should kick more drop goals!
Everytime Löw plays the false nine.. Well I don't know what to say anymore.
Basically leading the game but still no score but there could have been at least 2 already.
I wish more teams would play a narrow 4-3-3 with just full backs as the players on the wing position because why not.

I don't even know why this is a thing
Footbal = can be multiple things
Soccer = only one thing

Heynckes, übernehmen Sie!
Defense remains a total enigma under Löw, and while there were some great offensive plays, they seemed rather random in their structure. False Nine still does not work for Germany, at least not in the way Löw imagines it. But I don't think he even fully knows what he wants with it. It'd been a great match to test Volland alongside the A-squad, but noo... one more failed experiment, that is what the team needs, because there are so many matches left to played. Looks like Löw won't know - again - which team will be his A-squad at the tournament and he will keep rotating until it falls apart.
Kroos with some great long passes for the offense, but those work best when they surprise... not when you do them in today's staccato-displayed frequency at times.
Durm is a great left back, definitely needs to start. Boateng shouldn't play on the right back, he's a central defender. No idea what Özil is still doing in the N11.
EDIT Oh yeah, Müller seems to be gearing up for yet another top scorer trophy at the World Champioships. He's gettin' hungry.

I think Belgium will struggle- to be honest, they had a relatively easy qualifying group, and even if they top the group they'll have a big test in the second round- I can't see them getting past that.
