I've been told Natal is the city of the sun and that it never rains. Naturally, it's dumping buckets today and through the USA-Ghana game
That'd be 4 straight days of rain...the pitch will be slooooowwwwwww.

Waiter tells me he's lived in Natal 15 years. Has only seen rain in Natal on consecutive June days twice, counting today.

A sloppy pitch is going to put a lot more pressure on the defenses to not make any mistakes. It's more difficult to react to the attacking play and to recover if you are beaten. They have to play in the rain too, but our defense needs all the help it can get.

Ghana's the least technical of our group opponents, and their physicality could wreak havoc on our makeshift back-line, especially when you factor in a slippery pitch.

I'd take our backline over their backline. Fab-Cam-Besler-DMB have played pretty well together in the friendlies.
Our frick ups have come from Chandler and Omar.

Forecast is for AM showers on Monday with a 30% chance of rain at night. Best we can hope for.
Natal is so spread out this rain is crapping on my trip. Nothing to do but watch soccer and drink - not necessarily a bad thing.

Isn't speed Ghana's greatest asset?

WE have Brad Davis, I'm not worried about Ghana's speed
