FIFA World Cup: South Africa 2010

[Phil89]

A few times yeah.

[The X]

Chris Wood almost stole the game on probably our only chance of 2nd half. Pretty classic that we've only created 2-3 real chances in each game & picked up a goal in each. I'm really happy with the backline. When I said to everybody that I rated it higher than the Aussies I meant it. It's a real shame our midfield is so shite, because guys like Smeltz & Killen just don't get many chances to shine. Hopefully Tim Brown, our key midfielder, is back from injury for final game against Paraguay. I think Paraguay will do us by 2 or 3 goals but that's because I rate them & Chile more than I do a team like Italy.

Ahh well, I guess I should try to get some sleep. Gotta wake up in about 4 hours for work.

[shadowgrin]

I'm still thinking if I should sleep.

France is a goddamn mess atm...

[Phil89]

Just saw a replay of Luis Fabiano's second goal against Ivory Coast and the ball hit him lower on the arm than what Kewell got sent off for.
Not to mention his handball to bring the ball down at the start of the move. Terrible inconsistent referees this tournament.

[Axel The Great]

Sort of like the Thierry Henry incident?

[Phil89]

Not quite that bad. But he still used his arm twice.

[Jackal]

The Ivory Coast - Brazil match was up to now the most highly entertaining game. The two hands in one go thing for Brazil was kinda shocking & Kaka falling down a la Cristiano Ronaldo was hilarious to watch. They got him back good though, pretty damn good.

I felt bad for Ivory Coast, they play pretty well.

[Phil89]

I thought Ivory Coast were Africa's best chance in this World Cup. But they have a tough group and if Portugal win tonight they may not get out of the group stage.

I'm looking forward to watching Chile play again. I was impressed with them in their first game, even if it was Honduras.
They have some good young players. Alexis Sanchez, Vidal, Isla, Mati Fernandez, Valdivia and Mark Gonalez off the bench.

[Phil89]

Seeing as Portugal are leading 4-0 I would imagine Ivory Coast are out now. Even if they do beat North Korea and Brazil beat Portugal, their goal difference is way behind Portugal's now.

7-0.Shit I wonder wat will Kim Jung Ill do to the player and coaches

[el badman]

France is a goddamn mess atm...

No kidding. We're pathetic right now, absolutely shameful. That's what happens when you got overpaid morons who mainly play abroad, not in their own championship, they couldn't care less to play as a real team for their country. I hope we get crushed by South Africa in the next game.

I felt bad for Ivory Coast, they play pretty well.

They really did. I don't think they deserved to win looking back at the game, but even though it was cool to see, Fabiano's 2nd goal should have definitely be canceled and it should only be 2-1 for Brazil.

Cut of their balls for their lack of ball defense.

[Martti.]

Great game, 7-0.

There was a rumor, that 4 North-Korean players had ran away from the team before the Brazil game which turned out to be bogus. The whole defense and the goalkeeper should run now for real.

That's if they even leave South Africa after the Tournament is over. They might 'get lost' on the way to the airport.

They didn't really deserve to be humiliated like that. They played well in the first half.

Maybe they did ran and got caught just in time for the game. You don't know with those North Koreans.

[Phil89]

A couple of their players play in Japan and one plays in Russia. So maybe they will be around for the next World Cup.

[Murat]

7-0???? North Korea please dont play Game 3...

[Axel The Great]

Turkey would've been better.

[Phil89]

Turkey would've been better.

How is that relevant? It's the World Cup, not the Highest Ranked Cup. North Korea earned the right to be there. Turkey did not.

[Murat]

Turkey would've been better.

Yeah, we should be at South Africa. Not Portugal... But, North Korea shot at least 1 goal...

[shadowgrin]

Turkey would've been better.

Agree.
Quit crying about Turkey not qualifying, you jive turkeys.

[Murat]

Off-topic: Sure. We dont care this now because Turkey has another problems. I SWEAR. We had 15-20 martyrs in 5 days when fighting with terrorism.

[shadowgrin]

Quit making this thread about the war on terrorism. If you want, post in General Talk.

No. You said quit cry. I just said something off-topic. No more terrorism at there. Its OFF-TOPIC.
