    I wonder what the fuck is going to happen if Brazil plays against Argentina? BTW, I bet those English soccer hooligans (or BNP voters as they are referred to in the off-season) will be traveling to Brazil this year, since they aren't banned in that country.

Which is the first time they will go up against an MLS team at Silverbacks Park.
      Well then, go Atlanta!

      But how come such a big city as Atlanta doesn't have a stronger team yet? I know the US are only beginning to take notice of soccer,
      but it seems to be taking some time.

      How is the American team doing this time? I see they're in group G with Germany, Portugal and Ghana: it will be tough!

        The Atlanta Silverbacks are a second-tier club in the NASL. Which is the equivalent to Ligue 2, SkyBet Championship, Serie B, etc. I have heard rumors of Atlanta having an MLS expansion team in the near future and will play at the Georgia Dome when the NFL team leaves, but I can't confirm if this is true.

        In Group G, I'm not worried about Germany since the head coach of team USA use to play for them. Ghana kept the USA out of the quarterfinals last time, so that team will be a pain in the ass to beat. As for Portugal, that will be unpredictable since the record between them is 2-2-1. They just have to avoid contact with that pussy Ronaldo.

          Well, if you think it's enough not to worry about it...

          Now this is a fairly good record vs Portugal!

          Avoiding contact with Ronaldo... ... while not giving him too much room, hard task. I'll watch that particular match thinking about it for sure!

              I forgot to mention that USA defeated Germany 4-3 last year in DC for an international friendly which coincided with the 100th anniversary of the US Soccer Federation.

                How will DLN comment this result? I'm curious.

                Seriously, I wish the US team the best anyway.

                  BTW, is France going back to its head butting tactics? LOL On a side note, Zidane is quite a fuckin' asshole for joining the Qatar world cup bid.

                      I hope your team is training in French Guiana before heading to Brazil. Otherwise, you're going to wind up with a bunch of French men passing out from heat stroke. Which is what happened to the Norway team when they played in Los Angeles during the 1994 World Cup.

                        I just love his excuse. That he wants an Arab nation to win because he is Arab as well. Last time I checked he was born in France of Algerian descent, and most of them are Berber. Not to mention that a lot of Algerians are probably working in Qatar under slave-like conditions.

                          He's a Kabyle, even, that is not an Arab indeed.

                          As for the French team, I don't see them go very far beyond their group (the weakest of all, BTW).

                            Zidane is the second best footballer I've ever seen and I'll always be grateful for the head butt on materazzi .

                            Oh the first is George best .

                            Though secretly it's Peter Beardsley but you wouldn't beeline me

                              The French team played splendid games between 1982 and 1986 - 2 semi finals, European and Olympic champions in '84. The players were gentlemen, compared to those who have been part of it since 2002.

                              The Zidane years were great too - '98 world champions, European champions in 2000... But I'd rather remember the Platini years, they had something more.

                              Here they beat Brasil after a sensational match. Goalkeeper Joel Bats played incredibly well. A great memory - I would support them back then as they had panache.
