Wow, that half literally could not have gone any better for us. There's a real good chance Portgual is -4 or -5 in GD after this one, and now Pepe is out against us.

Obviously it all hinges on us beating Ghana, but if we can do that, we now have a pretty good shot of at least tying Portugal, especially since they didn't look very good even with 11.

So if we beat Ghana and tie Portugal, and if Germany beats Ghana as they should, we'll enter the Germany match with 4 points and a positive GD; Portugal would have to kill Ghana to give themselves a shot, and we would have a decent chance of either tying Germany or at least not losing by much since they would just be making sure they didn't lose.
