Don't lose heart, heartless. You were the only one to correctly guess the outcome of this game. About two-thirds of us had the score right, with the polarity (for want of a better word) wrong. The wrongest prediction was BobG's - one of his least patriotic predictions, methinks!heartless said:Oh boy... I bet 1:0 for Portugal and it was 2:0, I bet 1:0 for Ghana, it was 2:0, I bet 2:0 for U.S and it will probably be 1:0 ;p
Eh, I guess it shouldn't have come as that big a surprise. Czech Republic still looked like the team ranked second in the world by FIFA - but who knew Ghana was the best team in the world? :rofl:Gokul43201 said:Don't lose heart, heartless.

I think he should score negative points on that one!
The early goal by Ghana set the tone for the rest of the match and gave them an early advantage. It also put pressure on the Czech Republic to catch up, potentially affecting their game strategy.
The final score was 3-1 in favor of the Czech Republic. Despite Ghana's early goal, the Czechs were able to make a comeback and secure the win.
The Czech Republic may have had better overall team chemistry and strategy, as well as individual skill and experience. They may have also been able to adapt to and counter Ghana's early goal, ultimately leading to their win.
