#40 Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 [quote name='JC' post='285861' date='Jun 22 2006, 11:21 PM']Im assuming the same and he is exactly right They ran Japan up and down the field all day today...ronaldinho is a wizard with the ball [b]but needs to take more shots[/b]. Ronaldo got his two goals today...even though he looked lazy as fuck in the first half of the game. Robinho is a nice fit on the wing...but [b]where was Roberto Carlos[/b]? Im assuming he got the day off for rest...but thats assumed. Kaka had a nice game..he shoots and misses but has a nice leg with some power behind it. Dida looked good again today. I didn't see much of Adriano today...but i would have loved to see the match up between him and Gooch. Jeez two overpowering guys...it would have been awesome to watch...to bad Ghana had to fuck shit up. Now there fucked Brazil will overpower those flopping ghana bitches. I would be totally amused if a ghana player flopped and was down and Brazil just kept on playing...more then likely it would make my day because the U.S. should have did it today...they were stopping a lot of attacks today and just giving it right back to the goalkeeper. I no its good sportsmanship...but fuck that...when you take advantage of it like that and abuse it to win a game...its not right and it sucks and makes the game ultimatly boring. But i predict Adriano to have a big game against Ghana...and then we won't have to see them again.[/quote] Agreed, Yes, they showed him on the sidelines, he was resting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest steggyD Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 After the way they played against us, I would definitely order a bombing of Ghana, if I were the Prez. Seriously, not kidding here. That was definitely an act of aggression by Ghana, and they deserve it, at least the soccer team. Maybe we can hit their practice facilities with a stealthy strike.

But I'm sure Germany would've scored once or twice more if that would've went in. I just like Germany's style, tons of offense. I enjoy the sport more that way.

sois Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 US and Mexico are my two favorite teams. Thats kind of like cheering for the stealers and Bengals I suppose, since they're rivals. What I noticed about both teams is that they don't have anyone with the skill or desire to at least attempt to take their man 1-on-1. They like to pass it around until someone gets open. Pretty much, it was like watching basketball with no crossover dribbles. Anywho, I'm proud of our team (USA) and I hope we can do better next time.

EnglishBengal Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Anyone see the Argentina vs Mexico game? Great game! Especially the winning goal by Rodriquez - what a volley - took the pass and volleyed the ball from about 30 yards out over the Mexico keeper's head and into the net - definitely best goal of the tournament so far(though England's Joe Cole strike vs Sweden isn't far behind).

Guest steggyD Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Holy shit! Portugal and Netherlands! Crazy game! I thought someone was gonna die, or at least end up in the hospital.

sois Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Lot's of faking and falling down in that match. Damn, the faking is getting worse as the tourney goes on. I saw a guy in a different game slide and attempt a shot but once he saw that the ball was blocked, he immidiately started faking an injury and grabbed his knee. He was OK until he noticed things didn't go his way. They should have to sit out a "play" (like football) if they get hurt on the field. 2 minutes for faking should be mandatory.

JC Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 These refs are basically ruining the world cup. The Italy call was not good...i could have tripped myself over that man too. Its getting rediculous...let them fight it out in overtime rather then giving them a PK in stoppage time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the spot where the referee was, he would have seen that Neil tackled him directly into Grosso. Anyway, if you want to talk about shitty calls then, the red card was a shit decision by the ref. Marco Materazzi was not the last defender, that should have been a yellow card not red. The Australians should have taken advantage of this. They lost the game. Why the hell didn't they take advantage of an extra man. They should have put another forward in. You really can't compare this game to XL, XL had way too many shit calls favouring ONE team. This game technically had 2 shitty calls, one against each team. Australia should have put another striker in. They lost the game themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglishBengal Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Spain 1 France 3 Spain scored first and looked ok early on, but then the experience of the older players in the French team finally told. Zidane was back to his best for this game. Roll on Brazil in the quarter finals....I think the French have a real chance of beating the samba boys. As for Spain, they are the kings of the 'torn betting slip'. So the quarter finals look like this: 1 Germany vs Argentina 2 England vs Portugal 3 Italy vs Ukraine 4 Brazil vs France where the winners of games 1and 3 meet in one semi-final, and the winners of games 2 and 4 meet in the other. Outside of Brazil, who do you think has the best chance of winning it all? [i]Personally I'm backing England for obvious reasons, and Wayne Rooney will be the best player in the world within the next 4 years or so![/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then i have Germany vs. Brazil-Brutal game but Ronaldinho Ronaldo and Adriano come out on top. Wayne Rooney and Ronaldinho match could be a fight for the ages.
