Never cared much for Brazil but I just noticed from this game how many of the players were super cute. Heheh...no wonder N. Korea's team was all over them...literally. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Tuesday, June 15, 2010 10:33:04 PM)

Yeah that missed kick was a shocker! But strangely hilarious LOL!!! We'll see what happens with Moss' ban. Lochead isn't bad, I'm more worried about our older midfielders.
Sounds like Brazil were a disappointment - maybe soccer fans have just been spoilt a bit with their finesse over the years lol.

That was an awesome result for our guys to come away with a point. Can't wait until Moss' ban is over. That Paston is a real weakness at the back. I wouldn't be playing Lochead either. I think Moss becomes available again for the Paraguay game.

I vote this the best game so far. The Brazilians, although they won, were IMO a BIG disapointment.

The Koreans were great, played with all their hearts, and played like real sportsmen. Practicly no fouls, and when they did commit one, apologosied right away, no arguing with the referee... I really, really wish them all the best, and I will root for them in both games (or hopefully more) that they have in front of them.

You forgot to mention that I like gulags, purges, baby-eating and long walks on the beach.
Sorry, but Brazil wasnt itself tonight. If the mighty Brazil, the worst fear of every other team in the world, 5-times champions of the world, only team that never missed a world cup, had to wait for so long to score against such an outsider, and then even to recieve a goal from them... Sorry, I call it a disapointment. Brazilians are primadonas, which they always were, but there was a time when they were primadonas for a reason. Not anymore.
I was really afraid that the Koreans will go for a bunker, just defensive play with no attacks, but that wasnt so. They can really be proud of themselves. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Tuesday, June 15, 2010 2:27:15 PM)

Well, if there needs to be a winner, there are tie-brakers. Not in leagues, or group stages of tournaments, when teams play for points (3 for a victory, 1 for draw, 0 for losing), but in knock-out games, there additional time of two times 15 minutes, if there is no victor after that, theres penalty shootouts. Its not like two teams can win the same trophy. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Deep Freeze from Tuesday, June 15, 2010 7:47:13 AM)

Well it's only a matter of hours till kick off in NZs first world cup match. I am very excited, going to catch some sleep before kick off at 11:30pm so I'm not entirely a zombie tomorrow LOL! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by _strat_ from Monday, June 14, 2010 2:42:17 PM)

Well, I was rooting for Paraguay. I was delighted when they scored, and not so much when the Macaroners equalised. Good game overall. Is it just me, or is this world cup really a bit of a drag? Save for this game and yesterdays game between Australia and Germany, we are yet to see a really exciting match. Maybe tomorrow with North Korea and Brazil? I will be rooting for the Koreans in any case.
As far as your team is concerned, Id say that todays result is good, since neither of your future opponents got three points. But then again, its really to early to say anything for sure.

It is a complete fallacy that Americans aren't into the World Cup (or football in general). We all play and there are far too many hispanics here to believe it. Just not a great commercial success due to lack of airtime, promotion, etc.
