USA USA USA!!! vs. Germany and Ghana vs. Portugal





Pre-game

So Germany are actually one of the best teams in the world. But that's ok! USA#1 have been underdogs in every game this far, no reason to stop now. It'll be an amazing sweat tomorrow.

  • USA are in if they win or draw
  • USA are in if Ghana/Portugal ends in draw
  • If USA lose and one of Ghana/Portugal win, then it comes down to goal differential. USA are currently +2 on Ghana and +5 on Portugal in goal differential

Heat maps!



Oh wait. I forgot we needed  a little dose of America.

Heat maps for real. Both Germany and Portugal are favored. Not sure why everyone (including my own model) are still in love with Portugal since they seem to have one guy who's good. But if we can't have a tie in Ghana-Portugal then go Portugal.

Or just GOGOGO USA USA USA!
