[_strat_] Saturday, July 03, 2010 6:13:16 AM 
Im really not sure what to think of that "Hand of prick" we saw yesterday... I guess what hurts most is that Ghana was the better team, no doubt about it. On the other hand, I dont doubt that Suarez simply accepted the consequences of that action, and went for it, simply because Uruguay had nothing to lose and everything to gain. He sacrificed himself for his team, and willingly gave up playing in the next round. Not many players would do something like that... I just wish he wasnt such an asshole about it.

IDK, Ive never seen anything like it. This was definately a game to remember. 

But I still hope that the Dutch eat Uruguay in the semis.
[joedraper] Saturday, July 03, 2010 5:04:31 AM 
After reading that I have the uncontrolable urge to throw up now. Hand of God.. who the fuck does he think he is? Of course they cheated their way in.. Since when does deliberate cheating make you a hero? Sickening. Their day will come though. That I believe!

After last nights beating of Brazil I may have to revise what I said about Holland not winning the cup. That win will give them a lot of confidence going into their semi. I too hope Holland axe Uruguay. Cheating bastards. Gut wrenching choke for Ghana. Penalties really do suck. I hope to see no more shootouts during the tournament.

Sorry, I dont remember that. Although I think it was already 2 - 1 for the Dutch.

It was a really dirty foul at first (which alone warranted a yellow card, imo), and when the ref blew his whistle the Dutch player (already on the ground then) took the ball. Melo first stepped on him (ever been stepped on by someone wearing football boots? hurts like hell), and then tried to take the ball from his hands.

It was a red card straight away, and like they said on our TV, he will probably be banned for at least three international matches.

Well, there is some good news anyway... From the afternoon match. Felipe Melo will apparently be banned from playing at least the next three matches for that disgusting foul over a Dutch player. He already got a straight up red card for it, which was a very good call from the referee.

I think that Ghana was just cheated out of a penalty, but the replay wasnt clear enough. I sure hope it was all ok.

Holland and Brazil dominant last night. I don't think Holland can win it but you never know, it only takes one goal. Sounds like a dumb thing to say when they've got guys like Kuyt, Robben, Sneider and Van Persie out there but I think in the past they've had better sides than they do now and not been able to crack it and it'll be the same this time. I only saw the first half of Brazil/Chile but from what I saw Brazil handled Chiles good start well and then capitalised clinically when their chances came. Definately a final contender ( as always ). 

Looking forward to tonights Spain/Portugal match. Hopefully Torres can get out of this slump he's in and get a few goals.

Yeah it was a brilliant game between the Germans and England, we will definitely be getting up to watch the quarter final between the Argies and Germany. Germnay is my favourite, and like you said, if both teams play to their full potential, it'll be a fantastic game.

Awesome display from the Krauts, absolutely carved up England. Thought the game could have been a little different if the ref had of allowed Englands second goal. It took Germany a while to settle after Englands first strike and an equaliser could have really rattled them. However, didn't happen and the Bosch finished strongly. Argentina all over Mexico. I only saw the first half but they looked to be the better team by far, I guess the final result showed they were. The Bosch/Argies clash in the quarters will be a cracker if both sides play like they did today. Shame they can't meet in a semi or final. Whoever wins that game would probably be favoured to win the tournament. Spain/Portugal should be a cracker too. I'm picking the Spanish and would love for them to win it because I can't stand Christiano Ronaldo.

Oh, well, some younger than others. The Polish... Erm... "Beauty" Klose is an old fart by football standards. 

Personaly, I have high hopes for Mesut Özil. That run and assistance for the fourth goal were legendary. Pretty much made the whole goal himself, but still had the brains to pass the ball to someone who was in a better position to score. Which happened. Great to see a player who isnt entirely selfsih.

Yeah, and after they actualy stoped the game to debate the matter. I guess its really time to get replays for the referees. Yeah, sure, it wont solve all bad calls, but this one would have been.

Of course, that wasnt the end of it. I think that the referee pissed his pants later, and compensated Mexico by allowing them rough play - that faul at the end of the first half was a red card if ever I saw one - but by then the game was already ruined. Mexico was a better opponent at the start, and who knows how it would have gone if the ref simply made the right calls.

Shit... ANOTHER bad call from the ref. I hope that the Germans will eat Argentina in the quarter finals.
[_strat_] Sunday, June 27, 2010 9:39:37 AM 
Yes! Shwartz und weiss! I thought that they were in a better form, but whod have known that they would beat England so much?

Im rooting for Mexico tonight.
[spapad] Sunday, June 27, 2010 9:08:50 AM 
I like to root for the underdog, but apart from a few minutes, England could have phoned this one in. Shame. If it's any consolation, US blew it too. Oh, well better luck next time. There's aways another World Cup! We got so time to rework things to compete better.

England? WAHAHAHAHAHA! Bunch o' useless sasenachs...trounced (deservedly) by Germany...best comedy show i seen in a while...
[Becks] Sunday, June 27, 2010 8:29:09 AM 
Not anti-american sentiment at all Bud, the team just weren't good enough to beat Ghana. Give it a few more years and the US team will be better I reckon.
I'm up to watch the last 20 minutes of Germany vs England - Germany picking England apart. I'm half English so waaaah, but the German team, when they play well like they are now, are brilliant to watch.
[Budred] Sunday, June 27, 2010 7:56:43 AM 
We'll, I chimed in with a little Patriotic fervor when they won so I'll extend congrats in loss.
Best of luck to Ghana!
I'm sensing a little anti-American sentiment here. Are we that bad?
[spapad] Sunday, June 27, 2010 7:44:02 AM 
Just after the half. England down by one. GO England! I love a good Cinderella story!
[Becks] Saturday, June 26, 2010 8:32:58 PM 
Yeah Ghanas extra time goal was great. The US guy getting knocked over in the penalty area was a silly thing, but there was no need for the mini tantrum he then had, beating the ground with his fists, LOL! The games tomorrow should be very good!

Good wins to Uruguay and Ghana, some great goals from both of those teams. Seemed to be a bit more intensity now that it's do or die. I thought that when it went to extra time the US had the game for the taking, Ghana looked out on their feet. Wasn't to be though. One of the goals of the tournament for Ghana in extra time. 

Tonights games I'm picking the Hun and Argentina, pissed off I have to go to work at half time in the Argie game.
[Vaillant 3.0] Saturday, June 26, 2010 2:36:29 PM 
Yup. See ya, USA. You did your best. Don't worry, there's always 2014!

Now...let's see what tomorrow has in store for us:

England vs. Germany (Go Germany!) and Mexico vs. Argentina (Go Mexico!).

Awwwwww.....too bad. Fair outcome, IMO. USA was pretty darn sloppy. Losing that (typical) first goal.

Adiós EE.UU. Congrats to Ghana.
[Becks] Saturday, June 26, 2010 1:42:03 PM 
Especially those sports which are actually non-contact.
I'm cheering for Ghana too, being the only African side in the final 16 I hope they advance.

OMG! The last 10 minutes between Chile and Spain were painful! I wanted to chew through my main arteries just to curb the  boredom!

I have to root for Ghana today (being the only African team to get past opening round.)
[spapad] Friday, June 25, 2010 11:12:01 PM 
I doubt they got that lesson. Semper PHI! lol . Just think of American sports teams as Jarheads. They are out to win, but the possiblity of them winning is small. Don't stop them.  They have done well considering two goals have been disallowed and I'm sure there is more of the same in their future. I have no stake in this, I'm just facinated. lol

Probably. But in most sports, crippling the opponent is forbidden.

Well, I'm sure they love you! LOL If we play all sports the way we play real American football, it would mean we show no mercy for the weak. lol

Lol... Sorry, no. I used to like your team, but that time when they played against us, they showed themselves as total assholes. Injured one of our players, nearly injured two more, played the game like it was a war, didnt get punished for it from the ref... Yet still bitched and whined when the ref turned against them and overruled a goal. Frankly, I hope that Ghana eats them alive, and no matter that Ghana won against Serbia, which was my second favourite team.

Ok, the round of 16 is here... Two games today, Uruguay vs. South Korea and USA vs. Ghana. Im rooting for South Korea and Ghana.

Hopefully this time around, South Koreans wont need the referee to get them into the semi-finals.
[_strat_] Friday, June 25, 2010 10:36:50 PM 
Serves them right. If youre going to play at this level, you should be more professional than that. And if you dont want to shake hands with someone who was better than you in a game, than Id say they should forget about the plane, and take a bus home.
