I was running errands late in the afternoon, and listened to the World Cup on the radio. On tap was USA vs Ghana, and literally within moments the Americans scored. In the first minute. Waddle and Silvy on ESPN 1000 Chicago remarked that USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann said his team ought not even get off the bus, because they had no chance against Ghana. If I heard that correctly, then it was an awesome joke, given the happy outcome of the match.
Did I hear that right: Someone said US didn't have a chance against Ghana? #WorldCup2014
