Fifa World Cup South Africa 2010

[Meule]

Italy needed a penalty to score a point, pathetic.

And I was about to say Brazil is a total snoozefest and then they score a beauty of a goal

[toystalker]

2nd goal was hand ball... twice

has been the most boring world cup ive ever known...

i know its only on every so years but c'mon its pony and trap

i recon the likes of pele and platini could still do a job bring them on

Italians get a draw with a cheating dive.

Ivory Coast get Kaka sent off with pathetic simulation.

.........and the FIFA fair play award goes to

That second yellow was a total joke, not the first time a ref influences a match.

That's the one thing I truly hate about soccer...FIFA needs to join the 21st century...and rid of all these fake acting con jobs from players.

I'd start by red carding all the pathetic fakers.

God I hate Italy...always has been my least favorite team.

Looks like Portugal have woke up.

Chile win again, now it's up to Spain to do something.

[wolfie]

Spain are winning easy. Should make the Spain v Chile match a must see.

England's Rooney is the most overrated high profile player in the tournament.

He's no Mesi, Kaka, C. Ronaldo...that's for sure.


The USA was ROBBED BIG TIME...what a bunch of bull****!!!

The USA can still advance to the second round...

It wont take much of a miracle - Lets assume England beats Algeria. That leaves Slovenia and England with 4 points and the US with 2.

The US will have to beat Algeria in the last match.

If Slovenia and England draws that would put all teams equal on points, and it would be down to goal difference. In this scenario the US would have to beat Algeria by 2 to be one goal better than Slovenia.

If Slovenia or England wins, the loser finishes 3rd.


Bloody hell...I hate when the referees take away the game from players.

People pay to see the players...not the referees...just like trigger happy ref who handed out yellow and red cards like crazy in the Germany/Serbia game...disgusting.

If the U.S. wins, they're in...simple as that.

If they tie and England/Slovenia tie, that puts Slovenia in, and possibly U.S. in on goals scored +2 over England right now. Also, U.S. advances with a tie and English loss.

If the U.S. loses, then they are out...if I have my math right. Algeria will have 3, Slovenia already has 4, and the U.S. will have 2 which automatically bumps them.

The best scenario right now is that U.S. wins big and England wins but not by much. That puts U.S. through as 1st seed and England in as 2nd.

It was a day of records today. Portugal scores the most goals in a match (7), Chile-Switzerland took the most yellow and red cards (10) and Switzerlan beat the record for keeping their nets clean for the longest time in the World Cup... and 3 minutes later Chile scores a goal

Player from Chile got busted today taking a dive and got yellow

Player from Chile got busted today taking a dive and got yellow

Awesome!



South American teams have had a great tourney so far...the complete opposite of the African teams.

If USA and Mexico advance...CONACAF will be well represented as well...except for Honduras.

So much for continent field advantage...

Germany routed Saudi Arabia 8-0 in 2002.
