Not trying to put you on the defensive here... but have you ever ref'ed a
game?  Not just soccer... any game?

There were slight favoritism in some cases, but Shaq gets different
treatment  as well...

In my view the reason the US won is because they chose to play the
game instead of play towards the ref. (Mexico also put way too much
pressure on themselves, and the early goal got them off their game)

I don't think the Germans will be that easy....

80-20 Germany wins....
