MrCrackles:

Not so sure, all i know is England will breeze through!

why not?
Germany will beat the shait out of Finland. Can't say same for Spain if they continue to play like this.

End of match.
Stalemate but Germany had the upper hand.
Dzil missed two good chances but then the Spanish keeper did brilliantly well.
The Spanish team -very poor today.
Based on this, England and Germany should be in the next round.

Cristalz:
No way, man. Not with Rossi and de Rossi on that pitch.

USA showed the weak stuff they were made of early in the game when they kept messing up. They never had anything going for them attack-wise, so I never expected them to win.
Their penalty was the only way they coulda gotten a goal. After the penalty one woulda expected them to step up, increase the pressure, but they didn't really do that. Further proves their football silliness.
Then, hello red card. Made no difference.  .  .their game remained as weak as it had always been.
And then, hello Rossi. Bang bang USA, Italy rulez.

Come on, do you guys really believe USA was capable of beating Italy? Current World cup champs? Haba.

World champ my foot. I'm sure you can remember how they got to the final. Ojoro.
USA had 2 clean chances but somehow forgot their striking boots at the airport.
If NZ could put 3 past Buffon, why can't the USA do same?

And Yes, the RED card had a MASSIVE EFFECT.
The Italian defender was supposed to get a RED else why did the ref give a pen?

Tonite was fun hanging out with y'all.Let's hope it stays this way
Gudnite@all

NL is fun no doubt.
When you have people like Crizzle & MrCrackles be assured of having your ribs cracked with laughter.  

shait. . .

Germany should based on the 80 mins of goalless display.
Ozil is wicked. . .

@crizzle, the sending off had a MASSIVE effect on this match.
11 a side, Italy would have messed up. Believe it.  

Sisi off

MrCrackles:

I just changed it but still not jumping off my seat!

Second half has started brightly though

how did that not go in Germany again
Brilliant keeping by the Spanish GK.

Bojan is damn quiet today.

Cristalz:
GOALLLLLLLL!!!

I knew the Italians wouldn't let me down.

why can't Italy just win normally.
the red card is helping them seriously.
Howard caught napping or was he simply over stretched?  

another rossi scores.

Cristalz:
Pirlo's having a shaky game, like Gattuso was before he got subbed. Doubt that he'll be subbed though.

like you said, Gattuso didn't take enough/or too much lasagna today.

But mehn, that was a belter from Rossi.

MrCrackles:

I have it on brov, but i aint impressed

Marco Marin almost scored!!

then change the f\ucking thing.
Hoping for a goalfest in the second half.

freaking close for Germany.

MrCrackles:
Is it me or what?
Me thinks this game is boring
Germany parades very promising kids and Spain, not a lot, but certainly some prospects
No much fireworks, no major fanfare
Someone has to break the ice here mannnnn!

get your spectacles on man. . .
this game has had more chances than the USA vs Italy match.

Cristalz:
I just knew you would cheer the white boys on the second they went one down.

I'm still with the dark boys with great hair. How can Italy let the USA beat them? A team that's got Gattuso, Pirlo, Zambrotta and the rest of 'em lasagna-sounding names?

he he. . .The only player I admire is Gattuso but it seems he took too much lasagna today

Nice stuff from both teams.
Who will score the opener?

lalaboi:
Cheilini shoulda been carded atleast . . . .ref dey do ojoro oh

exactly.

Its the USA baybee. . .

@crizzle, remember NZ almost beat Italy some couple of days ago. Thanks to a quickfire double from Iquinta they avoided defeat.
Can the USA do it?

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=284403.msg4032792#msg4032792 date=1245091143]Mancienne should never play for England again.
At this level, he lacks confidence.[/quote]He played very well during the group stages. One of England best youngsters.
He made a mess of himself today but hey, it happens sometimes.

Impressive stuff from the Germans but very poor in the final third.

Altidoreeeeee. . .wtf

shoulda done better. . .damn

The Germans are holding their own.
This is no mere formality.

Cristalz:
@FBS
LOL. But, I expect Gattuso, Pirlo and company to teach 'em a thing or two about the game.

Nice attempt.  .  .close!

you know I enjoy it when smaller team beat the bigger boys.
They should invoke the spirit of 'Yes we can".
Altidore no wan gree. . .

Cristalz:
Whoever told USA they could play ball?

phuck them for calling it soccer but they are doing pretty ok today.

USA vs Italy.

a very bright start to this match.

mukina2:
I didnt expect you to vote Alves na

Ibime hates Barca, FBS hates Barca, sarong Hates barca.

so even if Alvez was better they wont say

nah, its not really like that. anyone with half a brain will know that as of today, Maicon is a better player of the two. fact.
Barca has norin to do with this and I don't hate them.

Now thinking about it. . .I thought Howard W initially pointed to a corner kick, NO?

the topic is
Douglas Maicon (inter) Vs. Dani Alves (barcelona) Who's Better?
Answer: Maicon.

Game over. England 2-1 Finland.

Lots of issues here for England but at this moment, what matters is the 3 points.


Stay tuned for the Spain vs Germany Match coming up in 30 mins.

Good save by J. Hart.

Richards off. kinda injured.
James on.
