Belgium vs USA 9pm / Tue 1st

JONJO THE MISER

USA seem to be running low on energy.

Will I Amnt

Origi has to gamble on the defender not getting that.

Origi looks very composed for a lad with so little senior experience - 45 first team appearances for Lille

Also trivia fact

On 25 June 2014, a baby dolphin at the Boudewijn Seapark in Bruges, Belgium was baptised "Origi" in his honour after having scored the winning goal against Russia during their group stage match at the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

Is it a Catholic dolphin?

Cienciano

Some seriously bad quality crossing in this game

yup - mockers powers engaged.

Goal for Belguim is coming. USA haven't come out second half. They look leggy

I will investigate further and update you when I find an answer.........

jamesbere

That was a good hit

Francie Barrett

It's a joke that Vertonghen has been Belgium's best attacking threat.

briany

USA won't be able to withstand this pressure much longer. Have to try and hold up the ball in Belgium's half a bit.

no-one expects the Vertonghen inquistion.

GavRedKing

Mertens thought he was Schurrle.

Johner

Origi has been impressive.

Very good, he deserves a goal tonight.

Dempseys movement in the box tonight has been appalling

MayoSalmon

Games that involve the US are brilliant!!

Is Januza on the bench. Maybe swap him for De brynue

Everyone in the squad is "on the bench"

So true

Panthro

Yedlin can cross.

murpho999

Only seen 2nd half but I''m surprised how little US are getting on the ball.

Only a matter of time for Belgium if this pressure keeps up

Mr.Prodston

Some classic Yedlin play there!

namloc1980

Dempsey looks shattered.

riffmongous

US look a lot more comfortable defending now I think

JONJO THE MISER

That was close, USA need to wake up.

Francie Barrett

Fellaini looks lost out there.

tayto lover

This is heading for e.t. and penalties i'd think.

twinex

The USA team are like a hard working, honest(if a little limited) championship team and I admire that. Kinsman is doing the best he can with what he has. The Belgians on the other hand are like a pampered team unwilling to give 100%. full of individuals who need to snap out of their half arsed efforts.

eagle eye

I just told the wife I'd give here a good Yedlin after the game. The look I got means its not likely to happen!:(

Boom__Boom

Both teams look to be a bit low on energy - I dread to think what extra-time would be like.

Nobody plays a square pass and trots into the box quite like Fellaini.

JONJO THE MISER

What a save.

Its a bit like watching Ireland. USA not making the ball stick anywhere,under huge pressure as a consequence

You mean you'd give her a good cross into the box??

The way these final 16 games have being going, especially after the Argentina match, we should get our quota of penalties today.

twinex

I can't help but think Landon Donovan would be an addition to that team, even as a sub.

riffmongous

If only Altidore was playing the US wouldnt be under have as much pressure after clearances

TheTownie

Tevez/Rio eat your heart out!

tayto lover

The goalkeeping in this World Cup has been excellent throughout.

Hmm, on replay, it was an awful shot.

Yikes!!

Slicemeister

USA back in this.

LightningBlue

Mirallas really should have done better. Great through ball by Origi.

GLaDOS

Mirallas should have scored that, best chance of the game

Slicemeister

STFU Houghton.

And Jay DeMerit.

murpho999

All these misses make me think that the USA could sneak this.

Teams often regret missed chances.
