You think Han cares about a BBF prediction contest after NETHERLANDS BEAT BRAZIL IN THE QUARTERFINALS???
I appreciate any American getting into soccer, really, but you still have a lot to learn :unsure:

Not saying that this implies anything about my knowledge of soccer compared to anyone, I'm just saying Han should have more confidence in his home country.

I did play soccer up into high school, though, so I don't think I need to 'get into' anything, nor do I really need to learn much.

If you stop an obvious goal with a handball then it should be a goal, IMO.

Of course you can't make a law like this because then you can't define 'obvious.'

Sucks to be Ghana, but they had their chance for sure.
