Official 2006 World Cup Thread...Italy wins 1-1 (5-3 PSO)

He can still play but he slows them down too much and a lot of his "brilliant" passes don't actually arrive. So I'd say try to speed up the tempo with someone maybe less talented but faster.

However it's always nice to have a player in there getting ALL the calls ALL the time..

Zidane took the free kick that set up the second goal and he scored the third. He may not be the quickest or the strongest, but he gets results.

Can someone please fill me in on why Trezeguet doesn't play???

Him and Henry don't really work well together up front.

Ah...that's a shame.

I dont see them play together very often so its no wonder why they dont gel. I feel Treze is still a quality striker and deserves some time on the pitch.

Cause Domenech is dumb as ass! But he'll soon get what's coming to him.

I wish there wasnt any long breaks like this one and I had something to watch today. I'm just sitting here counting down the seconds until the next match.

Maaaaaaan tomorrow is just "da day" for everybody in Germany.
If we are able to beat Argentina, we will make the finals.
Nobody is afraid of Italy/Ukraine, but Argentina is really a hard opponent.

Im really nervous and it is just about 20 hours before the game.

Daaaaaaaamn !

I just hope we win! I know it'll be fucking hard to win, but I hope we do so.

He's probably talking about Argentina. He hates Italy now

Yeah, I'm talking about Argentina. I don't hate Italy as a country but as a football team and organization.

only a handful of games left.....i'm getting depressed already.

Go Germans!!
Argentina lead 1-0!!

Klose header! 1-1!!
Not a double post.

NOOOOOOOO f'ck i hate Kose

Germany wins in penalty kicks 4-2!

i hate Lehmann

Lehmann was fuckin' calm and he's such a great goalkeeper. Too bad the sub goalkeeper of Argentina wasn't able to help. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY....

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!


SHALALALALALA LALALALALA !!!!


Oh my goodness, sry, but we won !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES !!!!

great, the worst thing in this world cup is Ballacks drama queen act...and it continues.

Got a question here... After the Germans won the game, why did the Argentine players kinda want to fight with some guy in a suit?

The guy in the suit was Oliver Bierhoff our "Team manager".

Dunno why they fought him, I think they were kinda frustrated ... that is normal after such an unlucky game.

I guess Oliver probably did the Mutombo finger wag..

He said in an interview that he saw some players of Argentina startin to fight and provocate german players and he wanted to keep the germans away in order to not get them disqualified or stuff like that.

No "Not in my house"

Fuck YEAH!!!
We did it! I love Lehmann! I love Germany! I love soccer! My throat is completely fucked up from screaming, but this is so great. Gotta watch Italy-Ukraine now, bye!

YEEEEAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
