are you all fit for Wednesday?

The USA opens her campaign in the 2002 World Cup with a match against the once mighty Portugal...

It ain't gonna be easy but I'll be shouting for ya'll...

Well I do have a £10 bet that the States will get through to the next round...

:D
 
Well P_P...i hope the US can Make it through as well...here's hoping

The US actuall has (for them) a tough draw....

Portugal is one of the better teams
Poland is tough defensively and very physicalAnd Playing South Korea in Korea will be tough

You figure that portugal will most likely win all three matches
That mean that the US will need to beat SK and tie or win against Poland to go through...

*Keeping my fingers crossed

They're pretty mighty right now...

Go Team USA! Reyna, Jones, Mathis and the rest...

U-S-A! U-S-A!

Ok, I've calmed down now.... :D
 
How do they settle ties if two teams in the same group have the same record?

Not that the US will lose a game.

By goal difference. And if that's the same by, horror of horrors, the toss of a coin (I think).

But I can't remember seeing it go as far as that. Usually goal difference will settle it.

Result between the two tied teams, then
Goal Difference, then
Number of Goals scored, then
Toss a coin
 
Teams Tied

Isn't it:
Goal difference
Goals for
then the result of the two teams tied when they played each other...the winner of that match goes through (or is that JUST in the European finals?)
then The coin toss

Mind you, as you say, I have never seen it go that far..and I have watched numerous world cups!
