They were all ranked in the top 10. Still a surprise that all of them didn't even make the elimination round.
bruh, no matter what they tell you, Fifa rankings are garbage. Always were, always will be.

fukked up. This is the type of shyt that gets them out of their game. Damn shame.so glendenning on the guardian podcast said the ghanians refused to talk to print media and asamoah gyan had to be held back cause he was about to fight a reporter jeez tho
Nah they should be given all the support possible to focus solely on that next opponent. This WC is wide open. These dudes could really make a run and their own leaders are fukkin with them.I'm just happy that Nigeria is the youngest team of the last 16.
"I think you have to look at the body of work to appreciate what happened today," said Donovan, who was controversially omitted from the US roster. "The Ghana game was not a pretty game, today was not a pretty game, but that being said, the team did exactly what it needed to do to get through.
"Now had the Ghana-Portugal game gone differently and this result remain the same [for Ghana to finish second in Group G], everybody would be saying what a failure this is.
"So you have to keep it all in context, and you have to remember this exact scenario happened in 2002, where we lost the third game and got help [to advance]. In 2006, we were a sort-of-dubious penalty [awarded to Ghana] away from advancing out of the 'Group of Death' at that point, and everyone said what a failure it was.
"[In] 2010, we were two minutes away from going home as a huge failure, and it turned into a great success. And today we were a Ghana missed six-yard header, minutes after they scored their first goal, away from this being another disaster.
"So we have to keep it all in context. It's great what the team accomplished, but we're still only as far as we were last time, and the hope now is the team can do something special."
Isn't FIFA planning on extending the tournament to like 40 teams anyways?Asia failed to win a game.
AFC should be reduced to 3 world cup spots.
