They played well against Italy as well but they've taken it to another level in this one. I think the USA should worry about Italy first. What a performance by Peter chek
Ghana has better athletes than US for sure, but if US can keep possession of the ball, they may be a better matchup against Ghana.
Ghana is FAST FAST FAST !! The USA should watch them, this is EXACTLY how they should play against Itay...screw caution..balls out baby ! DD
I don't understand the offside stuff... you can't pass to another player if there is no one from the opposing team in front of him?
OK, One upset....let's make it two in Group E... USA USA USA !!!! Who is with me?????? This changes everything. DD
You are not allowed to start your run until AFTER the guy has passed the ball. So, you have to be at least even as the ball leaves the passers foot. If you are behind the defense you are ineligible for a pass. DD
You can't pass to another player if there is no one from the opposing team in front of him at the time of the pass. Once the ball leaves the passer's foot, you can run whenever you want. The rule is meant to prevent teams from chucking long balls down to players camping in front of the goal, which makes games really ugly.
