    Jesus these officials are the worst ever. I'm starting to sound like a broken record.

    I'm obviously a soccer novice, but this referee is either grossly incompetent, on the take, or both.

    I would imagine we need to beat Algeria to ensure we advance???

    When do we play next?

    Yep, the Algeria game is a must win. However the 2 goals helped a little.

    Group is now

    Slovenia 4 pts GF - 3 GA - 2
    United States 2 pts GF - 3 GA - 3
    England 1 pt GF - 1 GA - 1
    Algeria 0 pts GF - 0 GA - 1

    playing with some numbers. It looks like we need to beat algeria by 2-3 goals and we advance.

    In the 2nd round, we play the qualifiers from from group D. right now the 3 in contention for group D are Germany, Serbia and Ghana. C1 plays D2 and C2 plays D1.

    You are assuming England beats Algeria right?

    perhaps the biggest goalkeeping mistake so far this tournament. How do you not come off your line with Donovan coming at you like that and no offensive support. Totally inexcusable. The US got jobbed by that numb nutted referree though. That would have been an incredible win.
