    Blaming our exit on a lack of passion. It's just a lazy stereotype. Every time England get knocked out people say they don't care. It's embarrassing. Look at the players' faces when Suarez scored his 2nd. They cared just as much as the rest of us. The tired old 'passion' cliche is the sort of thing mums and wives who don't normally follow football say.

    On a totally different note, why do pundits always go on about how players should keep it in the corner. Don't they realise that it never works for longer than about 10 seconds before you lose the ball. It's a **** tactic. You're better off passing it about if you want to waste time. Going for the corner is just a sure fire way to lose possession.

    They would have to win by 4 goals I think if Germany beat the US by 1.

    Do you really think USA, managed by a German and have a squad which is half German, will be eliminated by Germany? Especially when having a draw can get rid of Ronaldo?

    Especially since Joachim Low was Klinsmann's second in command when Jurgen was in charge of the Germany team.

    I think Ghana will beat Portugal based on this. Portugal will have to win by a good few goals as well, which surely won't happen.

    First tie breaker is goal differential or winner from the game that they played each other?

    In this order:

    1. Points in all group matches, with three points awarded for a win, one point for a draw and none for a loss.
    2. Goal difference in all group matches
    3. Goals scored in all group matches
    4. Points in matches between tied teams
    5. Goal difference in matches between tied teams
    6. Goals scored in matches between tied teams
    7. Drawing of lots
