    Worst England team I've ever seen play. Why is it we have the best players but they can never play together image

    Idk about that.

    First game (against the US) you had the worst goalie in the World Cup. lol. We would have scored so many more times if your Def wasn't as awesome as they were. He was hardly ever in position to stop a goal if the Def was lacking.

    I joke. Hope Ghana win today, would be good to see an African team in the Quarter Finals.

     

    Yeah and it'll be cool with us Americans too, since none of us care either way.

    Fan for Fan, there are more soccer fans in the US than there are in England. 

     

     

     

     

     

    We also have 6 times the population though. lol

     

    How do you quantify "fans" ???  Someone who calls themself a Soccer fan here is probably someone who played in high school or watches a Barclay Premier league game a few times a year and can recognize Messi and Ronaldo's pictures.

     

    A soccer fan in Britain is more likely to have their team's crest tattoo'd on their ass.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

    Gratz to the english (in particular) and german supporters that showed great spirit and support during the game despite this vuvuzela mania (which is a real "soccer live ambiance killer").

    Must say I was hoping for England to make it through (and get the most wanted England - Argentina in 1/4) but well, things could have been different if the 2nd english goals got approved by the referee.  Anyway AR is torning Mex. apart atm (2-0 1st half) so this should lead to an interesting game vs Germany.

    Why does soccer not have a video goal review?  Getting a clear goal taken away from you can sometimes change momentum.  When you have bs like this happen, it's just really disgusting.

    Argentina is looking really good.  They might just take this thing.    Germany is good, they trounced England, but I do not think even they will be able to stop the Argentina team with the way they are playing right now.

    Lampard calls for technology

    That Sepp Blatter really needs to step down as head of Fifa, only until he leaves will there be goal line technology in Football.

     The English goal that would have tied the game was clearly stolen.   It just once again shows the weakness in the officiating of futbol games.   :(   Germany may still have won, but I bet the English would have played a better a match if the goal had stood.   It must have been heart breaking and demoralizing to see a goal disallowed due to a blind ref.

    Well prolly Holland- Brazil friday

    I think 3-2 Holland wins!

    After the poor showing of officiation in the Argentina vs Mexico match and the England vs Germany match , it seems enought people have finally said enough is enough and Blatter apologized to both Mexico and England for bad calls made by refs and promised to look into vid replays and better training for match officials in the future.

    Story here  <<< clicky

    Nwtherlands beat Slovakia 2-1 and Brazil beat Chile 3-1 yesterday.    Today Paraguay vs Japan and the real game to watch is Spain vs Portugal.   This should be a good game - at least I am hoping it is.   Portugal is playing some good futbol - so let's see some goals!

  • TheHatterTheHatter Member Posts: 2,547

    Poor Jap dude. I was hoping they would make it further. 

    Jap v Par ended in a shootout with Par taking the game. Japanese hit the top of the goal on one of the kicks. The guy was a Def and has had 0 goals in 57 games. :(

  • AkaJetsonAkaJetson Member Posts: 1,167

    Wanted Portugal to win as Spain dived (flopped) left right and centre in that game. One of their players also conned the referee and got a player sent off.

  • SircaSirca Member UncommonPosts: 110

    Well I must say that PY - JP was one of the most boring game I have ever seen, very disappointing in particular for JP.

    I enjoyed the other game although Spain clearly deserved to win but with a mix of FC Barcelona and Real Madrid defenders, it was relatively easy for them to neutralize Christiano.

    Still betting on Argentina, with Spain or The Netherlands right behind.

    Spain  vs Portugal was amazing !!!

    That Portugese goalkeeper deserves a medal ...I've never seen someone stop so many gaol attempts

     

    Spain deserved to win ...

    Now that England is out I'm supporting Germany :)

    Since Brazil is out now, I am thinking either Argentina or Germany will take it.   So whoever wins tomorrow will most likely take it all.

  • AkaJetsonAkaJetson Member Posts: 1,167

    Ghana should have won that..  :-/

    Are you serious? The Netherlands has won 24 matches in a row and they just beat Brazil, the number 1 ranked country. They have to play Uruguary next who just lost their best player because he got a red card. This is football so of course Uruguay might surprise everyone but it is pretty safe to assume the Netherlands will be in the finals.

    Now Germany and Argentina will have to play against each other. The winner will probably have to face Spain which is the current European champion and ranked number 2 in the world. The road to the cup is still very long for both of those countries yet you make it sound as if its going to be a cakewalk, which isn't the case.

     Yes...because this World Cup is just being so predictable.
