Oh well, there's always next time.

1-0 wasn't enough vs South Africa?

"If we win against Argentina we're in and I wouldn't be surprised if we're first in the group," Commens said. "If we draw (against Argentina) I think that will probably be enough as well because all of the teams on six points are playing each other."

The Kiwis and Germans drew today, we needed the Germans to win
Only beating the US and SAf 1-0 hurt us

Need a draw against the Pakis to make the finals, if we beat them we top the group.
Lose and we are out

Bitterly, bitterly disappointing. Up 2-1 it looked ours. Then some very lazy work gifted the Germans an equalizer and they never looked back.
