Looks like we squeaked by and are still in the running. We didn't score against Germany (I think they're rated either #1 or #2 in the world), but we held them to one goal.

Our defense seems pretty good. I don't know enough about soccer to know whether our offense was affected by the rain, or we were just outplayed. Maybe a bit of both.
